Had those dumbasses stayed, they would’ve all been alive right now, possibly chilling munching some biryani in AP.

Hmm article published by Indian media to do domestic damage control

Damn, India went out of its way to try prevent blood being split. Redditors who keep parroting “India only looks out for itself” will have to find a new line.

The Dena, which left Visakhapatnam after participating in the International Fleet Review (IFR) and MILAN-2026 exercise that ended on February 25 , was torpedoed in the early hours of March 4. According to the Indian Navy, the warship was operating 20 nautical miles west of Galle.
The safe harbour offer was said to have been made in view of the rising tensions between the US and Iran. Hostilities erupted on February 28 when Israel and the US carried out the first wave of air strikes across Iran

Interesting how different countries responded before things escalated.

Regardless of whether this is true or just an attempt from India to save face, I struggle to imagine that the Iranian vessel wouldn’t have found some port, whether in India or elsewhere, to intern themselves for the duration of the war, as that other Iranian vessel recently did in Sri Lanka.
Ships and planes being interned in neutral countries after the start of a war that caught them outside their territory is a pretty long tradition, it functionally removes enemy combatants so I don’t think the US could complain too much anyway.
Besides, what hope did this ship have even if the sub didn’t sink it? the only way back into an Iranian port is through the strait full of American ships.
It just seems like a pointless suicide.

I hope it’s not because navy/dockyard would eventually bill them and their bosses weren’t willing to pay dıç

Important context is that they left India before the war actually started.

After years of “ death to USA and Israel”,
Iran is discovering that words have
Consequences. Iran FAFO.

Oh!!!! Totally irresponsible by the government of India.
Should have confiscated the keys of the ship like the traffic police does to bikers.

This isn’t 1900. This ship knew a state of war existed and set sail when it could stay in safe harbor. I don’t agree with bombing Iran but to pretend these were babes in the woods is wild. Would they have not fired if they could get the jump on us?

Is the US submarine being hunted now? Anyways its location has been revealed now.

It is a thing, see the sinking of the Belgrano (a retrofit of the US phoenix). This is even more controversial.

It sank in a glorious way. Why will it hide when the country needs it the most?

so what? This boat was sunk at open sea, was it not? A warship in open sea is fair game when there is a war. Being offered shelter is irrelevant.
Is Iran not trying to attack US aircraft carriers on open sea if they have the ability to?
