140 people are presumed dead after the ship was sunk close to Sri Lanka.

The US Defence Secretary, Pete Hegseth, said America was winning the war "decisively, devastatingly, and without mercy". Also: The Iranian president has told neighbouring states his country had to defend itself from US and Israeli attacks. And the warship the UK is deploying to the region, HMS Dragon, is not expected to head to Cyprus until next week.
