How rescue of US airman in remote part of Iran unfolded
From: BBC
The US military has rescued a missing crew member in a dramatic mission after his fighter jet was shot down in a remote part of Iran.
The exact circumstances remain unclear, but the operation to extract him from the ground in hostile territory was hugely complex.
Dozens of special forces, as well as US warplanes and helicopters, were involved in the plan, along with the CIA, US media reported.
On Sunday, US President Donald Trump said on social media: "We have rescued the seriously wounded, and really brave, F-15 Crew Member/Officer, from deep inside the mountains of Iran."
But the airman's ordeal began on Friday with reports that an F-15 jet, which was carrying a weapons systems officer and a pilot, had been shot down over southern Iran.
The incident was the first in which a US fighter jet was shot down by enemy fire in more than 20 years.
The two US military personnel on board the F-15E Strike Eagle managed to eject from the aircraft, and the pilot was rescued the same day, but the second crew member was missing.
The US then began a race against time to locate him.
Iran made it clear they wished to capture him alive and offered a bounty of £50,000 ($66,100).
Videos shared on social media, which have not been verified by the BBC, appeared to show armed civilians searching for him.
Once the officer was on the ground, he had only a handgun to defend himself, US officials said.
The airman would have received training for a situation like this, and it would have involved turning his beacon signal on, getting to high ground, concealing himself and establishing communications.
According to reports in US media, the airman hid himself in a mountain crevice and restricted the use of his beacon - concerned the signal could be picked up by Iran.
He then reportedly waited for his rescuers to arrive.
The CIA played a crucial role in the rescue operation, according to a senior Trump administration official who spoke to US media.
It was the US intelligence agency that tracked the airman's exact location to the mountain crevice and passed the information along to the Pentagon.
Trump said his location was monitored "24 hours a day" by US officials who were planning the rescue operation.
The officer was "being hunted down by our enemies, who were getting closer and closer by the hour," the president added.
