The body of Iranian Navy First Lieutenant Emad Hormozi has been recovered and identified in the Indian Ocean approximately 45 days after he went missing. Hormozi was killed when the Iranian frigate IRIS Dena was sunk by a U.S. Navy submarine. The recovery of his body concludes the search for personnel lost in the incident, which Tehran has described as an attack by a US-Israeli coalition. The sinking of the Dena remains a major flashpoint in the ongoing maritime tensions between Iran and the United States.
