US F-15E fighter jet shot down over Iran
A search and rescue operation is underway for survivors.
This is a developing story.
A United States F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jet has been shot down by enemy fire over Iran, U.S. officials confirmed.
One of the aircraft’s two crew members has been rescued, Israeli media first reported. U.S. officials confirmed the reports in statements to CBS News and Axios.
A search for the second crew member is ongoing.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Military Times “the president has been briefed” on the downed fighter jet.
The Pentagon and U.S. Central Command did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Lets pray for the pilot while rescue efforts are being made.
