Galle

Galle is a Sri Lankan city with historical significance, known for its old fort and tropical atmosphere. Recently, it has been at the center of international attention due to the sinking of an Iranian warship, the IRIS Dena, by a US submarine in the Indian Ocean. The incident resulted in the deaths of over 100 sailors and has led to Sri Lanka taking control of another Iranian vessel. The city is also hosting rescued sailors from the IRIS Dena, who are being treated at local hospitals. The situation highlights Sri Lanka's role as a neutral location in the conflict between Iran and the US. The country is trying to balance its relations with both nations while ensuring the safety of its citizens.
