, March 8 -- At least 104 Iranian personnel were killed and 32 wounded in a U.S. attack on an Iranian warship last week, Iran's army said, according to Fars news agency.

The warship, IRIS Dena, was torpedoed and sunk by a U.S. submarine in the Indian Ocean during the ongoing conflict, reports Al Jazeera.

The United States is reportedly pressing Sri Lanka diplomatically over the handover of Iranian sailors who were rescued following the attack.
