Dramatic video shows ten American sailors on their knees as they surrendered to Iranian troops
It's a Daily Mail article, so it's huge. Here are the highlights from the header.
Footage of sailors on the floor, with hands behind their heads surrounded by Iranian guards has been released
It was aired on the Islamic republic's state television after they were freed following a diplomatic standoff
When the sailors were taken off of the boats in the Persian Gulf, they were questioned by the IRGC
Later the captives were filmed looking relaxed while sitting on a big carpet sharing plats of food and water
One of the sailors was filmed apologizing for their unit's 'mistake' and praised the Iranians 'fantastic' behavior
A female sailor with the group was given a makeshift head scarf to wear while they enjoyed meal
Reports by state media inside Iran stated the U.S. issued a grovelling apology before the sailors were freed
However John Kerry's spokesman said there is 'zero truth' to reports the Secretary of State said sorry
