US submarines have torpedoed Iranian Ship IRIS Dena in Indian Ocean. It had been invited by the Indian Navy to take part in the IFR/ Milan exercises and was returning home.
The Iranian frigate IRS Dena was sunk by the US nevy close to Indian territory. It was returning from the MILAN 2026 exercise held in Visakhapatnam.
The IRIS Dena issued a distress call 40 nautical miles south of Sri Lanka. She is sinking. One hundred and fifty of her 180 crew are missing or wounded. Sri Lankan sailors, whose own warships participated in that same fleet review alongside the IRS Dena just days ago, are pulling Iranian sailors from the Indian Ocean.
