New satellite images from Isfahan, Iran, have exposed the aftermath of a high-risk US rescue mission to recover personnel from a downed F-15E fighter jet. The images show multiple aircraft wreckage at a makeshift airstrip near a key nuclear complex, highlighting the scale of the operation. The mission followed Iran’s shootdown of the jet, triggering a complex search-and-rescue effort involving special forces and multiple aircraft. Reports indicate several US aircraft were destroyed—some possibly by Iranian forces, while others were intentionally blown up by US troops to prevent capture. The incident underscores escalating tensions and operational risks in the ongoing Iran conflict. (PC: India Today)
