New footage has just emerged that is sending shockwaves online — Iranian police opening fire with heavy guns at U.S. helicopters during a daring rescue deep inside Iran. This isn’t a drill — these were live rounds aimed at American forces trying to save downed airmen.

On April 3, 2026, a U.S. F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down over Iranian territory, reportedly near Isfahan province. Both crew members ejected safely, but one became trapped in hostile territory, sparking an extraordinary combat search-and-rescue operation.

The new footage released by Iranian state media and police shows U.S. rescue helicopters — likely HH-60W Jolly Green II variants — taking fire from small arms and heavier weapons. Iranian sources claim this disrupted the mission and caused significant U.S. losses.

00:23New footage has just emerged that is sending shock waves online.
00:30Iranian police opening fire with heavy guns at US helicopters during a daring rescue deep
00:37inside Iran.
00:40This isn't a drill.
00:42These were live rounds aimed at American forces trying to save downed airmen.
00:47On April 3, 2026, a US F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down over Iranian territory, reportedly
00:55near Isfahan province.
00:57Both crew members ejected safely, but one became trapped in hostile territory, sparking
01:03an extraordinary combat search and rescue operation.
01:06The new footage released by Iranian state media and police shows US rescue helicopters, likely
01:13HH-60W Jolly Green 2 variants, taking fire from small arms and heavier weapons.
01:20Iranian sources claim this disrupted the mission and caused significant US losses.
01:25The rescue mission itself was massive and high risk.
01:29Special operations forces, attack aircraft, drones, and pararescue jumpers were deployed,
01:35using temporary forward operating bases in rugged terrain.
01:41Decoy operations and disinformation reportedly helped evade Iranian pursuers and extract the
01:47airmen safely.
01:48President Donald Trump later described the operation as highly successful, noting that both the
01:54pilot and the weapon systems officer were rescued alive, though one sustained injuries, including
02:00a sprained ankle.
02:01Iranian media, however, is portraying this as a major setback for the US, showing abandoned
02:07gear, military IDs, rations, and what they claim are Israeli permits to suggest panic or a hasty retreat.
02:14They also allege multiple US rescue aircraft were destroyed, though verified reports confirm
02:21the crew survived and no American deaths occurred during the mission.
02:25This footage underscores the extreme risk of US operations deep inside Iran.
02:31Even elite forces and advanced helicopters are vulnerable to asymmetric defenses, surface-to-air
02:37fire, and improvised tactics.
02:39It also highlights the growing information war, with Iran leveraging visuals to boost domestic
02:45morale and challenge US narratives.
02:48The downing of the F-15E, the fierce firefight, and the successful extraction all send a clear
02:55message.
02:56Air superiority does not guarantee safety in hostile, well-defended territory.
03:03Earlier, Iranian state-linked media released photos claiming they showed wreckage of a US military
03:09aircraft along with possible human remains.
03:13Some reports even suggested a skull of an American serviceman had been recovered.
03:17But here's where the story takes a sharp turn.
03:20According to US Central Command, there were no casualties reported in the operation.
03:25In fact, the aircraft in question may have been deliberately destroyed by US forces themselves.
03:32Trump called it one of the most daring rescue operations in US history, even declaring in
03:38all caps, WE GOT HIM.
