Sri Lankan officials have expressed concern as a second Iranian warship moved towards the country’s territorial waters on Thursday, a day after a United States submarine destroyed an Iranian frigate, killing at least 87 sailors. Authorities fear the new vessel could also become a target following the earlier attack.

The development comes as the conflict triggered by joint US-Israel strikes on Iran continues to expand beyond the Middle East.
