The missing crew member of the American F-15 fighter plane has been rescued by the US Army amid fierce firing in Iran. Regarding this, US President Donald Trump said, “The US Army had sent dozens of planes equipped with the world’s deadliest weapons to bring them back.”
He further said, “The US military conducted one of the most daring search and rescue missions in US history for an extraordinary crew member.” Giving information about the rescue operation, Trump said, “My dear American citizens, in the last few hours, the US Army has carried out one of the most courageous search and rescue operations in American history for one of its extraordinary crew member officers, who is also a respected colonel.
What did Trump say about the rescue operation?
Trump said that I am very happy to tell you that he is now safe. This brave warrior was in the inaccessible mountains of Iran, pursued by our enemies and coming closer every hour, but he was never completely alone because his Commander in Chief, the Secretary of War, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and fellow soldiers were monitoring the situation around the clock and doing everything they could to rescue him.

IRGC had kept a reward of more than 60,000 dollars
Not only was the US Army searching for the missing American pilot in the south-western region of Iran, but Iran’s Revolutionary Guards had also cordoned off the entire area and started a large-scale search operation. The IRGC had appealed not only to the soldiers but also to the local people to find the pilot and had offered a reward of more than $60,000 for capturing the pilot alive.
Trump has further toughened his stance against Iran and given it a final time of 48 hours. Trump has clearly warned that Iran has only 2 days left to reach an agreement or open Hormuz, after which it will wreak havoc on Iran.
