Iran’s Largest Warship Catches Fire, Sinks in Gulf of Oman
2nd June 2021
The support warship Kharg sank under unclear circumstances near the Iranian port of Jask, about 790 miles southeast of Tehran, semiofficial news agencies reported.
Firefighters tried to contain the blaze, which ignited around 2:25 a.m., but efforts to save the Kharg – named after the island that serves as the main oil terminal for Iran – were unsuccessful, according to the Fars and Tasnim news agencies.
UPDATE: Massive Blaze Engulfs Tehran Refinery Just Hours After Sinking Of Iranian Warship Sounds to me like somebody is Sending a Message.
