President Donald Trump has announced the successful rescue of the second crew member from the downed F-15E fighter jet, describing the operation as a miraculous mission. The pilot and the extraction team have safely exited Iran following intense strikes in the region.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Israel targeted several Iranian petrochemical plants during Saturday’s operations. In a stern warning, President Trump stated that Iran has 48 hours to reach a deal or reopen the Strait of Hormuz, threatening severe military consequences if they fail to comply.
The strikes have prompted Iraq to close its Shalamcheh border crossing after an Iraqi traveler was killed. Amidst the escalating tension, the UN nuclear watchdog reported no increase in radiation levels following a strike near the Bushehr nuclear plant, while Iran continues to face a nationwide internet blackout for over a month.
