Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the US struck the Iranian frigate Iris Dena without warning in international waters near India, where the ship was described as a guest of India's navy. He said almost 130 sailors were on board at the time of the attack, which he said was carried out using a torpedo. Araghchi warned the US would bitterly regret the precedent it had set by sinking the vessel.
