One crew member has been recued after an American aircraft was shot down in Iran. That’s according to one U.S. and one Israeli official, who both spoke on condition of anonymity to describe sensitive ongoing military operations. The rescue occurred as the U.S. military was conducting a search and rescue operation, according to three people familiar who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitivity of the situation. Israel is helping the United States with the operation. The number of crew on board wasn’t immediately known. It would be the first time the U.S. has lost aircraft in Iranian territory during the five-week war.
Two U.S. military planes were shot down in separate incidents on Friday, escalating tensions in the ongoing conflict.
