اشتباكات عنيفة! تفاصيل إنقاذ الطيارين من قبل القوات الأمريكية تكشف

According to a report by the U.S. news website Axios on April 5, three U.S. officials said that U.S. special forces have rescued the second pilot of an F-15 fighter jet that was shot down over Iran.

One of the officials said the pilot is a weapons systems operator. He was injured after ejecting on the 3rd, but was still able to walk. Over the next day and more, the pilot evaded capture in mountainous terrain.

The official said the rescue mission on the 4th was carried out by a special assault team and received extensive air cover. The U.S. military launched a heavy fire strike, and all units have now withdrawn from Iran.

Also, according to Qatar’s Al Jazeera, a U.S. government source said fierce exchanges of gunfire occurred during the rescue operation.

U.S. President Trump said on the 4th that the U.S. military had rescued the second pilot on the downed F-15E fighter jet over Iran.

On social media, Trump said that over the past few hours, the U.S. military carried out “one of the most daring search-and-rescue operations in American history,” and located the second pilot. The pilot “is safe and sound.”

Trump said the U.S. military had been monitoring the pilot’s position and “carefully planned a rescue operation.” Following his order, the U.S. military sent dozens of “aircraft and helicopters carrying the world’s deadliest weapons” to rescue him. “He (the pilot) was injured, but he will recover.”

Trump also confirmed that the first pilot on the downed F-15E fighter jet had been rescued, but that he had not been confirmed earlier because they did not want to jeopardize the second rescue operation.

Trump also claimed that there were no American casualties in the two rescue operations.
