“We have rescued the seriously wounded, and really brave, F-15 crew member from deep inside the mountains of Iran,” US President Donald Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Sunday, adding that the operation involved two raids and lasted several hours.

“The second raid came after the first one, where we rescued the pilot in broad daylight… spending seven hours over Iran,” Trump said.

He said he would hold a news conference with military officials at the Oval Office on Monday at 1:00 p.m.
