The survivors of the US attack on Iranian vessel Iris Dena, which claimed the lives of 104 people, were among those repatriated.

More than 200 Iranian sailors left stranded in Sri Lanka after a US torpedo attack are returning home after being stuck in the country for more than a month.

On Wednesday, Sri Lanka’s Deputy Defence Minister, Aruna ⁠Jayasekara, confirmed 32 sailors rescued from the Iris Dena and 206 from Irins Bushehr, had left the country.

The Iranian warship, Iris Dena, sank on 4 March about 40km (25 miles) from Sri Lanka’s southern coastline after it was hit by a torpedo from a US submarine, killing 104 sailors.

    “More than 200 stranded Iranian sailors return home after US torpedo attack”

    Same amount of words, but the grammar actually makes sense.

    I swear to god, this piss poor grammar is intentional.
