U.S. military executes complex rescue of downed weapons officer from Iran

The U.S. military conducted a rescue operation to retrieve a downed weapons system officer from Iranian territory, which President Trump characterized as one of the most complex missions ever attempted by American forces. Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, an F-16 pilot and combat veteran, provided firsthand details of the operation to CBS News. The mission demonstrates the capability and coordination required for high-risk personnel recovery in hostile territory. No casualty figures or operational details affecting civilian populations were reported.
