Trump says missing US crew member from downed jet rescued in 'daring' operation in Iran |

An American crew member rescued after a fighter jet was shot down over Iran is “safe and sound”, US President Donald Trump said.

The operation to rescue the airman led to an engagement between US and Iranian forces, after a race to locate them, with Iranian officials offering cash rewards to citizens to find them "alive”.

It is understood the rescue was a hugely complex operation involving significant US military resources, with hundreds of special forces personnel, several dozen warplanes and helicopters tasked with the search.
