Iran shot down an American fighter on its territory for the first time since the beginning of the war in the middle east as US officials and media related to Tehran reported to several US media this Friday.
The other three occurred in a friendly fire incident in Kuwait at the beginning of hostilities, but the crew members were able to be rescued.
The shootdown in Iranian territory represents a new step in Operation Epic Fury, as Donald Trump’s Administration baptized the joint operation against Tehran, after, two days ago, the president promised to attack it “hardly” during the next two or three weeks.
Trump offered a speech to the nation this Wednesday in which, far from declaring the end of the war, he did not specify details of how the supposed last weeks of conflict will be carried out, nor of the opening of the Strait of Hormuz.
