One crew member from US fighter jet downed in Iran has been rescued, US media report

Earlier, two sources told the BBC's US partner CBS News that a search and rescue effort was under way for a downed US F-15 fighter jet in southern Iran. It's not known what has happened to the second crew member

BBC Verify has confirmed a video showing what appears to be a US plane accompanied by two helicopters flying over Khuzestan province - Iran's state media claim Iranian forces shot down the plane

US President Donald Trump "has been briefed", according to the White House

It's the first known case of a US fighter jet being shot down over Iran during this conflict, our foreign correspondent writes, and comes after Trump claimed Iran "can't do a thing" about US planes flying over it

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims Israeli strikes have destroyed 70% of Iran's steel production capacity - and says Israel and the US will continue to "crush" the country

Pride goeth before a fall.

JUST IN: Iranian Parliament Speaker: 'From Regime Change to Can Someone Locate Our Pilots?'
Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf mocked the U.S. following the downing of an American F-15E fighter jet in Iranian airspace. He wrote on X: "After you attacked Iran 37 times in a row, the amazing and strategy-less war you started has now shifted from 'regime change' to 'Hey! Can someone locate our pilots?' Wow. What amazing progress. Absolute genius."

You guys need to see the video of this rescue mission, America is the world's undisputed worldpower.


More than 5 rescue planes were dispatched to Iran with convoy of other fighter jets all flying low, engaging and neutralizing IRGC ground troops who tried to stop the rescue.



America is pitying Iran, those guys can blow Iran to ashes if they wish, they are just trying to avoid civilian casualties in Iran

Two American helicopters were hit by Iranian fire during the rescue operation following the downing of an F-15E fighter jet in southwestern Iran. This is according to a report on the American NBC network citing an official U.S. source, who noted that the crew members are safe.

Iran will pay heavily for downing the fighter jet.

He knows better. Are you his adviser and wanted something otherwise?

Trump is a no nonsense man. He has so many men at his disposal and can replace any if needed.

Exactly, they are just trying to avoid civilian casualties in Iran. America loves the civilian Iranian people not their regime.

America and Israel could go on a bombing spree inside the heart of Iran but they are avoiding the civilians there.

But our brothers here in Nigeria knows this truth but are just flexing lies upon lies.

, you should be asking what will happen to the American economy itself! American economy is based on Petro dollar.
Once Iran is attacked and Iran itself destroys the economy of the Gulf countries, American itself will be in a strategic mess.
This is how the world works. Have you asked yourself why Americans are buying gases at a higher prices?
