Iran Shoots Down U.S. F-15 Fighter in Humiliation for Trump

Iran claims it has shot down an American fighter jet over the country for the first time, sparking what could be a dangerous new turn in the Middle East conflict.

Pictures circulating online showed parts of what appear to be an F-15E, and of USAF aircraft which specialize in combat rescues flying low over south-west Iran.

The downed F-15, if the photos circulating on social media are correct, is from the USAF's 48th Fighter Wing, the Liberty Wing, which is usually based at the RAF Lakenheath base, about 80 miles north-east of London. / Martin Pope/SOPA Images/LightRocket/Getty Images
