Iran downs US attack jets

The escalation of the conflict between the U.S. and Iran reached a critical point as Iranian air defenses successfully targeted two American fighter jets.

While one pilot has been safely recovered, U.S. Special Forces have reportedly entered Iranian territory to locate a missing weapon systems officer.

Iranian state media has broadcast images of the wreckage and offered a $60,000 reward to any citizen who captures the 'intruder' alive.

This development challenges President Trump’s recent assertions that the Iranian military had been 'annihilated' and its skies rendered defenseless.
