US President Donald Trump has announced the successful rescue of two US airmen downed in Iran, calling it “one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History”. The operation comes after Trump gave Iran a 48-hour deadline to cut a deal or face consequences.
The airmen were rescued from behind enemy lines in Iran’s treacherous mountains, with one sustaining injuries. The rescue operation is part of the escalating tensions between the US and Iran, with Iran launching missiles and drones at Israel and Kuwait.
Iran has rejected Trump’s ultimatum, warning of “hell” if the US doesn’t back down. The conflict has spread throughout the Middle East, disrupting global energy supplies and targeting economic sites.
The US and Israel have struck Iranian targets, including a petrochemical hub, killing five people. Iran has retaliated with missile and drone attacks on Israel and US allies in the Gulf.
The international community is calling for calm, with the IAEA expressing concern over strikes near Iran’s Bushehr nuclear plant. Would you like to know more about the conflict or the diplomatic efforts to resolve it
