“I see a lot of people🚨posting that the second crew member has been rescued, and while we all want this to be true, I keep refreshing news sites, and I have yet to see a reputable news source reporting this. The rumor seems to be people quote tweeting from each other. Be careful.”
-A Siskind
I apologize. I saw the post about the rescue of the second crew member from several sources that’re usually reputable, but it hasn’t been confirmed by MSM.
#IranWar #USPol
⚡️Now the rescue of the second crew member is confirmed:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2026/04/04/us-pilot-rescue-iran-f15-crash/
Propaganda:🚨Trump called the op to recover the airman “one of the most daring search & rescue ops in US history.”
The op:🚨cost $300M bc they’d to abandon: 2 AFSOC C-130s/4 MH-6 Little Birds. Then the USAF had to use mult bombs to blow up all the aircraft they abandoned at that airstrip. &: Iranians shot down 2 MQ-9s Reaper drones.”
-M Weiss
Or
“US narrative: 2 C-130s were “destroyed after becoming inoperable” on the ground during the F-15 airman rescue in IR🚨doesn’t hold up.”
#IranWar #USPol
Another theory of the damaged aircraft left after the airman was rescued: #Trump & #Hegseth are lying, again‼️
“Emerging evidence suggests:🚨US ops S of Isfahan (marked in red on the map) were unrelated to any pilot rescue mission. The downed American pilot was reportedly located in SW Iran, near Kohgiluyeh & Boyer-Ahmad Province (marked in blue on the map), not cen Iran.
Instead,🚨this appears to have been a failed heliborne insertion aimed at locating uranium…”
