U.S. forces have located and evacuated the missing weapons systems officer who was downed over Iran (https://www.foxnews.com/category/politics/defense/wars/war-with-iran), two senior US officials and multiple well placed sources in the region confirmed to Fox News.
The airman had been unaccounted for after an F-15E fighter jet was shot down, triggering an intense search-and-rescue operation in hostile territory.
Details remain limited, but reports indicate U.S. personnel reached the service member behind enemy lines in Iran and successfully extracted him, with all personnel now safely out of the country.
