US Effort to Recover Downed Fighter Pilot Fails

Sources have reported that the American forces have failed to extract the pilot of a downed fighter jet from Iran’s borders.

Iran (IMNA) _Sources told Tasnim’s correspondent in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province in western Iran on Friday that US forces had been conducting a search operation since earlier today to recover the pilot of their fighter jet, which was shot down by Iran’s Armed Forces. The operation involved Black Hawk helicopters and a C-130 Hercules aircraft; however, their efforts have so far been futile.

The sources added that, given the reputational damage to the United States in this incident, it is possible that another individual may be introduced within the coming hours as the rescued pilot.

Based on some information, following the destruction of the advanced American fighter jet by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) earlier on Friday, the pilot ejected and landed inside the country.
