"Denmark's Naval Troubles: Chief of Defense Fired Amid Missile Malfunction"
Denmark has fired its chief of defense after reports of undisclosed malfunctions aboard the frigate Iver Huitfeldt during its deployment to the Red Sea. The frigate was scheduled for deployment as part of Operation Prosperity Guardian but was recalled early due to reported critical weapon and mission systems issues. The dismissal comes as another Danish frigate, Niels Juel, faced an incident where the booster of a Harpoon missile was activated during a mandatory test. The area around the naval base was closed as authorities investigated the situation.
