"In the Indian Ocean and we'll play it on the screen there an American submarine sunk an Iranian warship that thought it was safe in international waters. Instead, it was sunk by a torpedo. Quiet death."
"the U.S. military is punching Iran while they're down and the conflict was never meant to be a fair fight and it is not a fair fight."
"it was the first time an American torpedo has taken out an enemy ship since World War II."
The Department of Defense released video footage showing an American submarine striking an Iranian warship with a torpedo in the Indian Ocean. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth characterized the strike as a "quiet death" and stated it was the first time since World War II that an American torpedo destroyed an enemy vessel. Hegseth emphasized the military superiority of U.S. forces, noting the conflict was never intended to be a fair fight. The Iranian ship sank in international waters, with subsequent images showing half the vessel protruding vertically from the water. This incident occurred on the fourth day of the Iranian conflict, which began with a joint U.S. and Israeli strike on Tehran.
