A US government official has informed a media house that the ‘missing’ second crew member from the downed F-15E has been found. No official statement has been released yet.
Today was the second day of the search for the missing United States pilot. There was an undefined race between both Iran and the US to find the missing pilot after his warplane went down in Tehran. One fighter jet was shot down in Iran. A US crew member from that plane was rescued, but a second was missing, and a US military search-and-rescue operation was underway.
The incidents occurred just two days after President Donald Trump said in a national address that the US has “beaten and completely decimated Iran”.
Separately, Iranian state media said a US A-10 attack aircraft crashed in the Persian Gulf after being struck by Iranian defence forces. A US official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive military situation, said it was not clear if the aircraft crashed or was shot down.
With the war now entering its sixth week, there are destabilising economies around the globe, and no near site when the conflict will end.
