Trump finally breaks silence after two planes, helicopters destroyed, anonymous US pilot saved

With a hard deadline looming, Donald Trump has escalated rhetoric, warning Iran that “Tuesday is the last day” to comply or face massive strikes. The urgency follows the downing of a U.S. F-15, which exposed operational risks and triggered a high-stakes rescue mission deep inside Iranian territory. Trump acknowledged Iran “got lucky” in hitting the jet, even as Washington prepares for possible escalation and Tehran vows severe retaliation, rejecting peace terms outright.
