At least 20 dead as Iranian vessel hit by friendly fire
During an exercise in the Persian Gulf, a rocket fired by an Iranian navy vessel mistakenly targetted another, causing at least 20 deaths, according to reports in the local media.
An Iranian destroyer mistakenly shot and sank a second Iranian vessel during a naval exercise Sunday in the Persian Gulf, killing at least 20 people, according to unofficial reports.
Initial reports claim a C-802 Noor missile was fired from the Jamaran and accidentally struck the Konarak, a general-purpose vessel.
Reports said there were 30 to 40 crew members on board the Konarak, which had recently been added to the Iranian Navy's fleet.
