Jul 7, 2024, 12:56 PM
The Iranian Navy's Sahand frigate, one of Iran's most modern warships, capsized and sank today at the port of Bandar Abbas in Hormozgan Province. The incident, which occurred during repair work, resulted in several injuries and at least two officer deaths. Iranian officials reported that the ship lost its balance due to water infiltration into the tanks. The Sahand, commissioned in 2018, was undergoing repairs when the accident happened. The cause of the water infiltration remains unclear, and Iranian state media have classified the event as an 'unfortunate incident.' ISNA reports confirmed the accident.
