One of two crew members of a U.S. fighter jet that was shot down over Iran was located and rescued by U.S. special forces, and the search for the second is ongoing, an Israeli official and a second source with knowledge of the situation told Axios. The latest: Iran is also hunting for the crew and has asked civilians in the area to join the search, offering a reward if they're found.
- The Iranian armed forces said in a statement that it had struck an American A-10 attack aircraft in a separate incident on Friday. A source with knowledge confirmed the A-10 was hit but said the pilot was safely rescued. A second source said the plane crashed and was destroyed but the pilot was safe.
- The Iranian military said it had also hit a U.S. Blackhawk helicopter that was participating in the search for the crew members of the downed F-15.
- A U.S. official confirmed the Blackhawk was hit and crew members were injured but that it was still able to fly. It was the same helicopter used to rescue the crew member from the F-15.
