美国国防部长彼得·赫格塞特谎称,最近一艘伊朗船只沉没是第二次世界大战以来对敌舰发动的第一次鱼雷攻击,尽管自1945年以来有三起此类事件得到证实。 U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth falsely claimed a recent Iranian ship sinking was the first torpedo attack on an enemy vessel since WWII, despite three confirmed such incidents since 1945.

美国国防部长Pete Hegseth声称,一艘伊朗船只在印度洋沉没是第二次世界大战以来第一次敌舰被鱼雷击沉,但历史记录显示,自1945年以来,至少有三次证实有船只被鱼雷击沉。 U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth claimed the sinking of an Iranian ship in the Indian Ocean was the first time since World War II that an enemy vessel had been sunk by a torpedo, but historical records show at least three confirmed instances since 1945 where ships were sunk by torpedoes. 其中包括1982年福克兰群岛战争期间阿根廷巡洋舰ARA将军贝尔格拉诺被一艘英国潜艇击沉,1971年印度的INS Khukri号潜艇被一艘巴基斯坦潜艇击沉,以及2010年韩国的韩国天安舰沉没,这次联合调查归咎于北朝鲜潜艇可能发射的一枚鱼雷,尽管北朝鲜否认参与其中。 These include the 1982 sinking of the Argentine cruiser ARA General Belgrano by a British submarine during the Falklands War, the 1971 sinking of India’s INS Khukri by a Pakistani submarine, and the 2010 sinking of South Korea’s ROKS Cheonan, which a joint investigation attributed to a torpedo likely fired by a North Korean submarine, though North Korea denies involvement.
