According to the Fars agency, a search for an American pilot, whose fate remains unknown, has been ongoing since this morning in the western and southern provinces of Iran.
In addition to the two helicopters mentioned by Fars, other footage shows an aircraft similar to the HC-130J Combat King II, which is used precisely for missions like this one.
Fars also emphasizes that Iranian forces are searching for the pilot, as are Iranian citizens living in this part of the country.
On Iranian local television, a message was even published stating that any person who provides information about the pilot's location will receive a valuable reward, although it was not disclosed what exactly it entails.
In previous cases, America explicitly denied claims that Iran shot down their aircraft, but they have not commented on these claims.
The Tasnim agency previously reported that the pilot is definitely on Iranian territory and that American forces near the Iranian border attempted to evacuate him, but without success.
