US President Donald Trump announced on Sunday, April 5, the successful rescue of the second pilot of an American F-15 fighter jet that had been shot down by Iran over its territory. According to Trump, the American military carried out "one of the most daring rescue and recovery operations." The pilot was injured but is safe. The rescue took place more than two days after the aircraft was shot down, with American special forces carrying out a dramatic mission on Iranian territory. hlavnespravy.sk ↗
The conflict is also escalating due to Trump's 48-hour ultimatum issued on Saturday, April 4. According to Trump, Iran had until Monday, April 6, to reach a peace agreement with the United States or to open the Strait of Hormuz, otherwise "hell would rain down" on it. On Sunday, Trump crudely threatened Tehran with attacks on Iranian power plants and bridges if it did not open the strategic strait. He made these statements via the social network Truth Social. Iran's Armed Forces Central Command rejected the ultimatum, calling it hopeless and nervous. Trump also claims, without providing specific details, that "many" Iranian military commanders were killed during a large-scale attack on the Iranian capital, Tehran. ta3.com ↗
Despite the escalation, Trump is signaling openness to negotiations. On Sunday, he admitted that a deal with Iran could be reached as early as Monday. "I think there's a good chance for it tomorrow, negotiations are underway right now," the American president said. This suggests that, alongside the harsh threats, diplomatic contacts between the countries are continuing in parallel. hlavnespravy.sk ↗
Iran claims it managed to destroy another American aircraft that was searching for the pilot. Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) announced on Sunday that they had destroyed this search aircraft. Nevertheless, Trump continues to signal that the pilot is safe, thereby responding to Iran's version of events. interez.sk ↗
The international community is reacting with concern to Trump's threats and the escalation. The former head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) called Trump a "madman" and urged the Gulf states to take action against the United States. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte is expected to visit Washington in the coming week to discuss with Trump the possibility of the US withdrawing from the alliance. The incident involving the shooting down of American aircraft calls into question Trump's claims of complete US dominance over Iranian airspace and represents a significant moment in the Middle East conflict. pravda.sk ↗
