TL;DR

Navy SEALs Christopher J. Chambers and Nathan Gage Ingram died during a mission off the coast of East Africa while attempting to board a ship smuggling Iranian weapons to Yemen. The SEALs, weighed down by their gear, plunged into the Arabian Sea after Ingram slipped and fell, prompting Chambers to jump in to save him. The 11-day search and rescue mission was called off, and the Navy is conducting an investigation into the incident. The SEALs' deaths have prompted mourning and tributes from President Joe Biden, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, and the Navy SEAL Foundation, which is raising money to support Chambers' family.
