The Dena is one of Iran's most prized warships, built entirely in Iran and commissioned in 2021. Just weeks ago it… https://t.co/TjhuQ1popQ pic.twitter.com/3DLnirzOz4The Sri Lankans say a sub attack.

The probability is increasing of a US SSN joining the very exclusive club, the only member so far being HMS Conqueror, of nuclear powered subs having sunk an enemy warship in combat.https://t.co/YOnHsnNaTd
Sri Lanka is reported as saying they're helping to recover 32 injured from the water but no ships were near. If it was an SSN, this is the first sub sinking a ship since HMS Conqueror during the Falklands War and the most recent since a North Korean mini sub sunk the ROKS Cheonan in 2010.
Don't cheat now. What did the HMSConqueror sink?
Hint: it was an Exocet armed warship n the South Atlantic

Belgrano didn't have Exocets but the two destroyers with her did

You know those sailors were happy they were away from home...then BOOM. I am glad we got rid of one of their warships. I also pity the men that got thrown in the drink. Naval warfare is a particularly brutal and merciless type of fight.

I'm surprised Iran didn't direct them to find shelter in a port/any port on day 1 of the campaign. That's a massive asset to lose with next to no chance of it playing a beneficial role for the motherland other than getting sunk.
Like Iraq sending their fighter jets to neighboring countries at the start of the 2nd Iraq war.

Here’s what I’m understanding about the Kurdish ground movement reports in southwestern Iran.
— Open Source Intel (@Osint613) March 4, 2026
So far it appears limited to small scale clashes along the border. Kurdish forces are positioning and preparing.
At the same time, U.S. and Israeli officials are running heavy…
