Reports say US submarine sank an Iranian warship in the Indian Ocean

Multiple reports state a U.S. submarine torpedoed and sank an Iranian warship in the Indian Ocean. The ship was reportedly returning from military drills with India, which is an ally of Israel.

Pete Hegseth confirmed the incident, and the sinking has raised concerns that the Indian Ocean could become a new front in a wider conflict. Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Khatibzadeh has been mentioned in related coverage.
