Trump says two US airmen rescued in Iran
United States President Donald Trump has announced that two American airmen have been successfully rescued from behind enemy lines in Iran, describing the operation as one of the most daring search-and-rescue missions in history.
In a statement, Trump said the personnel were safely recovered during a high-risk operation, though specific details about the mission, including timing and tactics, were not fully disclosed for security reasons.
He praised the military teams involved, commending their professionalism, bravery and precision in carrying out the rescue under challenging conditions.
