Iran has begun hiding its ships.
They are useless in this war due to their technological backwardness.
----------------------
"The President of Sri Lanka announced that the country's authorities have allowed the Iranian naval vessel Bushehr to dock in the port of Trincomalee, and all 208 crew members have been evacuated.
The day before, a US submarine sank the Iranian frigate Dena off the coast of Sri Lanka, which was participating in joint exercises with the Indian Navy. Eighty-seven sailors were killed, and 32 were rescued.
The Bushehr, an auxiliary vessel, was escorting the frigate Dena on a voyage through the Indian Ocean. As it approached Sri Lankan territorial waters, it reported propulsion failure and requested shelter.
"We wanted to maintain neutrality while providing humanitarian aid requested by one of the parties to the conflict. No one deserves to die. "Every life is precious," the Sri Lankan president declared."
----------------------------------------
The Sri Lankans understood the Iranians correctly: the problem wasn't with the engine. If this ship had continued heading toward Iran, it would inevitably have been sunk by an American submarine.
In the video published here showing the sinking of the Iranian ship Den, you can see the American submarine, under periscope, targeting the Iranian ship, firing a torpedo, and destroying it.
I'm very far from naval affairs, but even I understand that the Den's crew was sailing as if on parade, completely oblivious to the submarine aimed at them.
Iranian ship "Dena" was "stunned" and "blinded"?
It appears so. The victims never understood the source of their deaths.
...And thus, 208 Iranians were saved from certain death by the Sri Lankans.
The Iranians are brave. But this war doesn't require bravery! It's a completely non-contact war for now.
In a week of war, Iran's adversaries haven't struck a single Iranian tank. There's no need. The Iranians may face a "real war." That is, all weapons, with the exception of the ballistic missiles and drones of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which the West has already declared a terrorist organization, may remain intact by the end of the war.
But without the command!
The Americans also destroyed the so-called Iranian aircraft carrier.
