In a recent development, 22 sailors from the Iranian vessel IRIS Dena have been discharged from a hospital in Sri Lanka, following their treatment for injuries sustained during an incident at sea.

While the majority of the crew has now recovered and returned to their duties, another 10 sailors remain hospitalized and are continuing their treatment. The Sri Lankan authorities have been closely monitoring the situation, ensuring that the remaining crew members receive the necessary medical assistance. This incident highlights the ongoing maritime challenges faced by vessels operating in the region, as well as the collaborative efforts between nations to address such emergencies and provide humanitarian aid.
