Iran Escalates Threats, Warns Ships in Strait of Hormuz of Missile Attacks

The IRGC reiterates its threat to escalate attacks against the US and Israel and warns all ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz will be targeted by missiles.

A US submarine torpedoed and sank the Iranian warship IRIS Dena in the Indian Ocean after it participated in a naval exercise hosted by India.

Iran's Foreign Minister warns the US will deeply regret sinking the IRIS Dena, calling it a 'maritime crime'.

The sinking of the IRIS Dena has caused distress among navies worldwide, including the Thai Navy, which participated in the same exercise.

The Royal Thai Navy is preparing naval assets to evacuate Thai citizens from the Middle East if necessary, as a contingency plan.
