The Iranian army says at least 104 people were killed and 32 wounded in an attack by the US on an Iranian warship off Sri Lanka’s coast last week.
A US submarine sank the frigate Dena in the Indian Ocean about 19 nautical miles off Sri Lanka’s southern port city of Galle on Wednesday, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington’s pursuit of the Iranian navy.
