US Submarine Sinks Iranian Frigate

0:00On March 4, the United States has confirmed a submarine torpedo attack that sank an Iranian frigate off Sri Lanka's South Coast. U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said a Navy submarine carried out the strike late Tuesday night on the Iris Denna, marking the first enemy ship, sunk by torpedoes since World War II. The warship went down in international waters within Sri Lanka's economic zone, about 44 nautical miles from Galle. Sri Lanka's Coast Guard picked up a distress call from the ship at 5.08 a.m., Wednesday, reporting an explosion. They sent naval vessels by 6 a.m., and recovered 83 bodies from the site, while rescuing 32 crew members who were treated at A. Hospital in Gage. Rescue operations continued as the focus stayed on any possible survivors. The attack has drawn sharp reactions amid rising tensions. Officials call it an escalation in the ongoing U.S. and Israeli strikes against Iran, which have already taken out top leaders and crippled defenses.

Details emerging point to two torpedoes hitting the ship's midsection, after its defenses may have been jammed electronically. The Iris Denna was Iran's newest frigate, loaded with missiles and heading home from an Indian naval event. Sri parachute-launched officials quietly confirmed U.S. involvement through Iranian channels. As strikes drag into their fifth day, with fresh hits on Tehran, the world watches this naval clash ripple through the region, testing alliances, and sea lanes far from the main battlegrounds.
