US Rescues Missing Airman, Trump Threatens Iran Power Plant Strike

US forces rescued an airman from Iran days after his fighter jet was shot down, while the Islamic Republic’s continued attacks sparked fires that damaged Kuwait’s oil headquarters and shut down an Emirati petrochemicals plant.

The US deployed dozens of aircraft to retrieve the injured crew member from a mountainous area, a day after a second person from the same F-15E jet was rescued, President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post Sunday. Earlier, Trump threatened to unleash “all hell” on Iran, saying the time left on the 10-day deadline for it to make a peace deal with the US was running out.
