Following a 48-hour period of evasion, a US airman who was shot down and had been on the run from Iranian authorities has been located and extracted by US forces, reportedly under the cover of darkness.
While the identity of the US personnel involved in the rescue remains unclear, it is believed that they were part of a special operations unit.
The extraction was marked by a intense firefight, with reports suggesting that Iranian authorities were aware of the airman’s location and had been tracking their movements.
The rescue operation posed significant risks to the US personnel involved, and the airman’s safety remained uncertain until confirmation was received from a US government official that they have been safely removed from Iranian territory.
