According to Iranian officials, at least 2,076 people have died so far in this war that started on February 28, while more than 26,500 people have been injured.

America claims to have shot down two fighter planes

Iran has claimed that it has shot down two American fighter planes. These include one F-15E fighter jet and another A-10 attack aircraft. According to Iran, the F-15E fighter jet was shot down on its territory. One crew member on this plane has been rescued, while the other is still missing. At the same time, Iranian media says that A-10 attack aircraft fell in the Persian Gulf. However, American officials have not clarified whether the plane crashed or was shot down.

The US Army is busy searching for the missing crew member. During this time, American Black Hawk helicopters involved in the search and rescue operation also came under Iranian firing. Although the helicopter was definitely damaged, it remained in the air. According to American media, two such helicopters have been affected. These helicopters were on a mission to find the missing pilot of the F-15E.

Iran has said that it has shot down the American planes with the help of a “new advanced defense system”. This claim is contrary to America’s statement, which said that Iran’s air defense system has already been destroyed.

Iran rejected 48-hour ceasefire proposal

Iran has also rejected America’s 48-hour ceasefire proposal. According to Fars News Agency, this proposal was delivered to Tehran through a third country, which Iran refused to accept. There has been no official response from America on this matter yet.
