VisitAmerican Fighter Jet, Linked to Assad's Forces, Crashes in Deir ez-Zor; Pilot Ejected
Aug 28, 2024, 03:13 PM
A military aircraft, believed to be affiliated with Assad's forces, has crashed in the Deir ez-Zor region of eastern Syria, near the town of Al-Bouleil, in areas controlled by Iran-backed militias. Initial reports suggest the aircraft may be an American fighter jet, although this remains unconfirmed. The pilot reportedly ejected and survived, with video footage showing the parachute on the ground. The crash site is in a government-controlled area with a significant presence of Iran-aligned groups, including near Mohassan and IRGC/Regime held areas. The cause of the crash is still unknown, and the pilot's identity is unclear. Investigations are ongoing.
