Israel aided the United States in a daring operation to rescue a downed US airman from Iran. Israeli security officials confirmed they provided crucial intelligence and paused their own attacks in the region. This assistance facilitated the successful recovery of the F-15E pilot. US President Donald Trump hailed the mission as one of the most daring in American history.
Details emerging about the heroic operation that extracted the US Air Force crewmember from southern Iran point to a high-risk mission executed with precision. The CIA ran a sustained deception operation against the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and succeeded in planting false information among the forces conducting the manhunt for the American crewman.
