A spokesperson for Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters Ebrahim Zolfaghari said that the US was "forced" to "heavily bomb" its forces during the operation to locate and rescue a pilot of a downed fighter jet on Iranian territory.
The US Air Force struck "downed aircraft, equipment, commanders" as well as troops "in order to avoid embarrassment" for US President Donald Trump, after Iranian security forces threatened to encircle teams sent to extract the pilot, the military said.
The spokesperson stated that "a number" of US aircraft, including two C-130 military transport planes and two Black Hawk helicopters, were hit by Iranian forces and forced to make an emergency landing south of Isfahan. Previously, Trump confirmed the pilot of the downed F-15E plane had been recovered.
