Hello ladies and gentlemen, welcome to TU 2CV. This is your global news channel. I'm Maya Tusci and we come to you guys with some live ongoing development in the southwestern parts of Iran.
Uh, the US Air Force have launched a search and rescue mission with a number of aircrafts and helicopters flying low over the skies of Kuzestan. The Israelis have confirmed that two US pilots are currently in Iran following an F-15E fighter that went down. Now, what we don't know is whether they were shot down or whether there was an issue. The Islamic Republic of Iran didn't react to this initially, following hours of search and rescue by the Americans. We now have an update from the Islamic Republic state media as well. And now, of course, we have to wait for the confirmation from central command as well. We don't know exactly what's going on, but we have the videos to show you guys in terms of uh what the US Air Force are doing.
H, before we get to that, of course, we're going to get your reaction live as usual. Let's go to Alborz's province as the over the last few minutes, the Americans and the Israelis just destroyed a huge ammunition depot. So, this is what uh we're dealing with in the northern parts of Iran. And then we are going to show you the first video we have from the US Air Force. Uh, these are the uh search and rescue aircraft and helicopters that have now been deployed uh to allegedly rescue the two pilots of a downed F15E fighter jet near Kuzestan. They've been flying around for hours, by the way.
Now, as I said, the Israelis were the ones first to confirm this. And of course, the US Air Force flying around in southwest of Iran. H, the Islamic Republic eventually reacted. This is interesting because obviously over the last uh uh few weeks we've had a couple of uh false claims, actually quite a few false claims by the Islamic Republic in Iran, claiming that they've shot down a few fighter jets. What was the other one? The F-35 or whatever it was, and US Central Command said, we don't know what they're talking about. Obviously, if somebody was downed, then they would have sent rescue, search and rescue personnel. Today, the Islamic Republic didn't say anything. We started seeing the footage from the helicopters and also the uh combat king too. We'll get to the details of that. And then the Islamic Republic made an announcement on their state TV saying that anyone who captures the US pilots alive will receive a valuable reward. So, there's now a bounty apparently formed. Aiz. So now they're claiming that there there is a bounty on their heads. Again, we will have to wait for the US Central Command uh to confirm the the actual facts on the ground. We'll wait for that.
But uh, some of the images that we have now received, this is the u, the ejection, the ejected seat of the uh of US F15E fighter jet. The aircraft is believed to be assigned to the 494th Fighter Squadron, or the Panthers, as part of the 48th Fighter Wing based at RAF Lakenheath in the United Kingdom. The trigger time of when uh it was ejected, the seat was uh 3:25 p.m. local time. That was a few hours ago. And uh then the we had the US Air Force uh HC 130J, the Combat King 2, or the the Combat uh Search and Rescue aircraft uh entering Iran. We also had two HH-60G helicopters accompanying it, and they had to send refueling tankers uh because they've been flying around for some time. Let's go to the next video we have from these guys. is uh allegedly on the res, search, search and rescue mission.
>> Sure. I don't know.
>> We now have the US officials confirming uh this is now official that a fighter jet has been downed. Though to the absolute crazy idiots uh in the live chats, the trolls who claim fake news. This has now been confirmed by the United States of America. It's also been confirmed both to Reuters and Wall Street Journal from the White House, Pentagon, sorry, that a search and rescue mission is underway for the two pilots. Uh, but the Islamic Republic over the last few minutes have now claimed that they have captured the pilots, but uh, yeah, there's no evidence of them. So, the Americans have confirmed that the fighter jet was in fact downed and the pilots have ejected. They're trying to find him. So, anybody in the live chat who's a troll, go and get get your own problem sorted. That's not my issue.
Let's quickly also go to the next video. Uh, we are waiting for some more information from the Pentagon on this, uh, bit of a crisis situation, especially if they do get captured. Obviously, it's going to be problematic. Uh, but the Israeli Defense Forces have also sent their helicopters and Unit 669 to evacuate the wounded soldiers of the Israeli um defense forces. Teams provide rapid extraction, first aid, and life-saving care, coordinating with ground forces. Dozens of evacuations, including complex helicopter missions inside southern Lebanon that has now been carried out. So, this is the IRGC Hezbollah positions, the territory that the IDF have obviously launched a ground invasion over the last few days, and they are now evacuating the injured soldiers. There you go. You can see one of them coming up.
>> Fortunately, we don't have the translation for this. Sorry about that.
By the way, apart from the um, the claims coming from the IRGC that they have already captured the pilots, there is no evidence yet. Obviously, it's likely, but there's no evidence. There's also no evidence that they were actually shot down. It could have been a mechanical failure. It could have been anything. Uh, we could have they could have technically been shot down, but uh, uh, that's not really the case because you you currently have the search and rescue aircraft and helicopters flying around low altitude, and they seem to be doing absolutely fine because there there doesn't seem to be any air defense systems around Kuzestan.
More footage of the rescue mission by the US Air Force. As I said, they've also had to send in refueling tankers again flying low. Well, relatively low because the other guys have been flying around for hours and hours. But this could be a big problem for the Islamic regime if if they do or have somehow captured them. It's going to be the final nail in the coffin, and we're going to have to expect Delta Force or someone else to actually put boots on the ground. But having said that, as I said, the Americans have now confirmed that the the fighter jet did go down, and there is a couple of situation as we speak.
Before we get more information about the ongoing situation with the search and rescue mission, let's quickly give you guys the latest uh list of the IRGC leaders who have now been eliminated overnight. Yesterday, we gave you reports on uh, I think nine, nine leaders that were killed over the last couple of days, and we have more names that we can now confirm on TUCC TV. Rhulah Mahani was the IRGC colonel killed in Zanjan. He was in charge of the Sepah al-Mahdi. Ramin Ramazani, who was the head of the IRGC intelligence organization, killed in the capital in Tehran. Moshtaba is the IRGC intelligence, also killed in Iran. Number two, Sayed Rahmani, IRGC's 38th Zulfagar brigade leader, killed in Kerman. Muhammad Resi, the IRGC's also 38th Zulfagar brigade deputy, killed also in Kerman. And we have the third one, the commander of the same brigade in Kerman. Muhammad Amin Yazdani, also killed alongside a more mid-ranking officer, Muhammad Mahi Hussein Khani, also in Kerman. So, four in Kerman. Ali Ozarion from the army conscript was killed in the same strikes. We also have the General Muhammad Ali Fattah Fatalizer, who was the IRGC's Basij commander, has been eliminated. Moaram Azimi, the IRGC's aerospace missile commander, the head of the missiles, was also killed. Three other IRGC battalion commanders under Azimi, the same guy we mentioned, also have been killed. And Behnam Razi Razi, who was the deputy intelligence chief of the IRGC navy, has been killed. And finally, Muhammad Sarlac, the commander of the IRGC's Basij unit 71, has been eliminated. So that's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 uh eliminations have been confirmed overnight and over the last few hours, and more of them are going to get rid of over the last few hours and few days.
Okay, so let's quickly uh, we're going to go back to the search and rescue mission. Before we get to that, let's go to Tehran. Over the last couple of hours, actually over the last hour, Balanjak in, I think the northern part of the capital, was heavily hit. Let's go to the video we have. We just received the updates. Sirens have been activated in Kuwait. Kuwait has been massively attacked over the last um, well, day or so, especially the last few hours. The oil refinery and the water supply has been hit. 90% of the water in Kuwait, by the way, does come from the desalination uh plants. There's a bit of a crisis situation in Kuwait.
We're going to go back to the rescue mission. Before we get to that, what's happening here? God bless our troops sacrificing the safety of their lives for our country. Absolutely. Please keep in mind that the US Air Force has a group of special forces unit called PJs. They go way beyond enemy lines to rescue downed pilots. They are deadly and know how to operate in enemy territory. Thank you for that. And Thomas says, "I pray the Lord Jesus is with our pilots. Thanks, Ducey from Tennessee." Yeah, let's all hope for a good outcome. And faces of the new leaders killed are getting younger and younger. Soon they will have baby photos up there. Yeah, I mean, the all the older ones have been getting killed anyway. So, a lot of the lower ranking ones have been promoted over the last few weeks, and they're al also getting killed. The replacements are getting killed uh on open fire since uh rolling strikes started.
Now, we will obviously report what the IRGC are claiming, but uh, we we have to say they are claiming because we can't really confirm that they have allegedly actually captured the two pilots. But the US officials have also issued a new warning to Americans around basically the the eastern part of Iraq near the western part of Iran, advising them to leave immediately. The Iraqi terrorists are obviously about to conduct the latest attack in Iraq, even though a huge chunk of them have already invaded Iran, but there's still some uh who are in Iraq.
Let's go back to the videos from the search and rescue mission conducted by the United States Air Force. The helicopters are still there. Uh, I'm just going to quickly show you roughly speaking where we are talking about in terms of uh this operation in the southwest of Iran. It's not too far from Kuwait, by the way, or even uh the island technically, and uh there will be more updates on this, I think in the next few minutes. We're expecting a quick statement as well uh by the US officials uh before we double check. Okay. There we go. I'm going to put the map on the screen so that you guys are aware. There we go. Apparently, the uh so far, the Americans have not asked the Israelis, the Israeli Air Force to send help for the rescue mission. Uh, but we will I think that might change obviously over the next uh few minutes or a couple of hours, but they they have been looking for them for the last few hours. So, we they haven't actually found them yet. Uh, but we will find out. There we go. So, this is the map of Iran. Uh, to the southwest, literally by the water, Persian Gulf, in the corner, top corner, um, where the circle is, that's Ber, one of the main ports. If you want to invade Iran, you go through there. To the south of it, in in the Persian Gulf, that's where the Kag Island is. And next to it is Kuwait and also the Iraqi border. That part is where the search and rescue mission is currently being conducted by the Americans. And uh, unfortunately, haven't been successful. Oh, apologies for that. They haven't been successful yet in this mission.
Let's double check. I think we're going to go quickly to the Prime Minister of Israel, Ben Netanyahu, who has released the latest video statement saying that we are eliminating commanders, bombing bridges, and targeting the infrastructure of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. For Israel. For there's a slightly bizarre situation right now in Kuzestan, as we have a number of IRGC idiots trying to shoot down the helicopters, the American helicopters from the ground who are conducting the search and rescue mission. Uh, we can actually show you this now. Uh, let's have a look at this footage from the southwestern part of Iran. Really? Really? You think they can bring it down? Okay, fine. All right, you can keep trying. Uh, they're they're not that stupid. Uh, but uh, also the latest uh information on uh the state of play right now and the the situation with the leadership of the Islamic Republic in general. So, it's not just the IRGC, you got different branches. You got the actual regime, you got the top, which is the which was the clerics, then you got the government side, the legislative uh, and then the IRGC and the armed forces. So, this is what we're dealing with for now. At the top, you got the house of the supreme leader. Of course, Ali has been eliminated. Mustava's situation is still uncertain, and Shamkhani, who was the military adviser to the supreme leader, has also been killed, and the head of the military office also eliminated. There's a couple of older guys that are not that important apart from um, Mosen Razi. He's important. He was obviously just replaced Shamkhani recently. And on the left, top left, you got the Supreme National Security Council. And you had Ali Larijani who was in charge, and he's been killed. Currently, Amir Hatami, underneath him. Top left. He is the main guy when it comes to the military command of the Islamic Republic. Top right, you got the Assembly of Experts. They're not really important. They're a bunch of people in their 90s and hundreds uh who are still alive somehow, and their their job is to pick the next supreme leader. Nobody cares about them. Then you got the which is state media. Those are the main guys in charge. You go down on the left-hand side, the big box, that's the IRGC. Essentially, most of them have been eliminated. We've got the the head of the IRGC currently is uh Ahmed Vahidi uh with the blue background behind his bold head, and most of the leadership have been killed. We don't know exactly what the situation is with the low-ranking ones. The judicial branch, Aj, is still alive. Legislative branch of the so-called parliament is still alive. Well, allegedly, executive branch, which is the government, and nobody cares about them really at this point. Peshkan, the president, and Arachi, foreign minister, they're still alive, but the intelligence minister and the defense minister have both been killed. The police, the head of police, Radon, is still alive, but the police intel chief has been eliminated. For now, and we also have uh former officials and influential figures, obviously, we had Ibrahim Raisi, who was the president, who died in a helicopter crash, and alongside his former foreign minister. In the bottom right, you got a couple of other idiots. You got the nuclear program heads. Every single person has been killed as part of the IRGC's nuclear program. And then the Guardian Council. There are also uh the youngest one, I think, is about 200 years old. So, that's basically the state of play what we're dealing with.
Let's quickly go back to the Americans. Uh, the US C-130 uh 130 Hercules is now reportedly flying very low over Iran, and it's deploying flares. Let's have a look at this quickly and come back. That's the big one. For the reason.
>> Someone in the live chat said AJ is not alive. There's no confirmation that he's dead. We haven't seen him in weeks.
Uh, but we did we we got the claims on the first week that he was killed, but no confirmation. Uh, even the Americans and the Israelis can't confirm whether he is actually dead. He could be, but it's not officially confirmed. Now, let's double check the latest on this chaotic mess right now in the southern parts of the country. Okay, we'll get back to that in a second.
We also have um more Iraqis invading Iran over the last uh few hours. Hundreds of Iraqi convoys have now officially entered the Iranian territory. Their job is to prepare for two scenarios, technically three scenarios. Number one, a potential US ground invasion. Number two, the Iranian uprising when the people come out. Number three, which is similar to number two, the the armed forces in Iran who have defected once they get activated, they have guns and everything else, there will be a scenario to counter the attacks from the anti-IRGC armed forces members as well. We have this video from the Iraqis, the the convoys that have now entered Iran.
>> Yeah.
James James Donald says, "King Charles not making East this speech, civil war." Okay. And uh, so as someone says, "Ground invasion isn't happening. Trump is signaling that to get the IRGC out of their caves so that we can see movement." They're not going to come out of their caves. The IRGC are not going to get involved with the ground invasion to fight back. The the leadership of the IRGC will stay hidden as they have done. That's why they've got their proxies to come. That's why they got the the minions of the IRGC who are already out on the streets, out on the ground. They will be used, not necessarily the leadership itself. They're not stupid. They're they're just going to hide forever.
Now, there is there was a situation overnight in Israel as well. The Islamic Republic launched a number of missiles uh with cluster warheads. The cluster warheads, that's the problem right now because it makes it slightly more difficult uh to be fully intercepted. In central Israel, we had a couple of impacts uh scattering bomblets, basically, that caused some property damage. Fortunately, no casualties were reported. There are a few people in the live chat mentioning the Toyotas as part of the the Iraqi convoys. Yeah, they love that. They love the Toyotas. Uh, I'm not really sure if it's been officially sponsored by Toyota, but uh, they have a lot of them, obviously. Uh, they're also cheap, so easy.
We have a massive, massive bombardment campaign right now as we speak across the capital in Tehran. It seems things seem to have escalated definitely over the last few hours and uh by both the Americans and the Israelis. While the search and rescue mission continues, we still haven't received any updates on whether the pilots have been uh rescued or captured. Again, the IRGC unofficial channels claimed that they have captured them, not the official channels. The official channels are still saying there's a bounty on their heads and uh if anybody captures them, then they're going to get rich, apparently. So, this is the latest uh the images from Tehran in Iran. And uh we're going to go to Kuwait. There is a uh there's an ongoing situation there as well. We've had a number of uh uh desalination plants and uh oil refineries that have been hit. So, since this morning, we had the IRGC drones hitting the oil refinery in Kuwait, and obviously the water supply, 90% of drinking water in Kuwait comes from there, which obviously is and it's a tiny, tiny country, so it's not like they have much infrastructure uh to cover multiple backups, but these have been hit, not fully destroyed, but definitely damaged enough to cause disruptions for the Kuwaitis. We are awaiting a statement from the government in Kuwait on this uh latest attack. Uh, we also now have an update from Pardis, which is a which is in Tehran, well, the Tehran province, because obviously the city is called Tehran, but then you have greater Tehran, which is the province, the region. Karam Dash industrial zone has now been hit by, I believe, the Israeli Air Force, because that's usually their targets, not the Americans. We are trying to get more intel on the the level of uh damage that's been caused by the latest strikes by the Israelis. Uh, let's uh quickly take you live to uh the city of Tel Aviv. About half an hour ago, we had the sirens in Israel, in in Tel Aviv. Um, there were missiles that were launched. We have the sound.
Okay. So, yeah, no, no sirens at this time. Alexander says, "We need to boycott Toyota. It's not their fault." Prayers from an Israeli American. Thank you. Yes, absolutely. Let's again hope uh that we get uh some good news very soon. Maya TV, thank you. Oh no, Maya, thank you for keeping us informed. I hope this war is over soon so the countries can begin to heal and peace can heal our hearts. God protects us. Absolutely. Thank you so much. Uh, I agree with your words and a couple of other comments saying, "Pray for our pilots." Thank you. Yes, absolutely. Um, I think something is happening again in uh the south. We have uh the latest uh propaganda video that's now been uh released by the IRGC Hezbollah, and I think this is about the latest mission, um, well, operation, terrorist activities in the southern parts of the country when they launched the guided missile at the IDF tanks. I think we can have this ready now in the next uh, yeah, okay, let's stay here, then we're going to go to the party of Allah, or Hezbollah, that's the translation. There we go. So, this is uh what they have uh published now. Preparing the guided missiles and launching it towards the Israeli tanks. Someone says, "I saw this morning on France 24 saying Iran claimed to have shot down another F-13 jet." Yeah, we don't have evidence of that. Any F-30, was it F-30? F-35, F-35 jet. Uh, no. Um, they they they claim a lot of things, but it's not true. There we go. That's the Israeli tank that's getting targeted. What are they doing with this video? Keep rewinding it. Get on with it. And impact, I think. I don't know. I I don't even know if they hit them. Okay, fair enough. Uh, that was uh the latest propaganda video from the IRGC's Hezbollah wing. Heather is in the live chat saying, "Praying for our brave pilots and all of the brave troops who are kicking evil's ass this holy week and Easter." Thank you all so much. Yeah, I do uh obviously slightly worrying about uh the the two pilots, but also if if they do decide to do any level of ground invasion, we do realize that is going to by default put more American troops lives at risk. That's just the reality. We we just had a a a number of Israeli soldiers who were wounded. They are still alive, but they are wounded and they have been evacuated uh from uh the Lebanese territory. I wouldn't trust the IRGC to pay me a b a bounty for pilots. How do we know who is in charge of the money in the country right now? Not just that, they don't do they actually have the money to give you. That's that's the other problem with this so-called bounty. Unless the IRIB, the Islamic Republic state media want to pay themselves because they came up with it, right? Uh, thank you for the list of eliminated IRGC. You made my day as usual. Fantastic coverage. God bless you and your family. Thank you so much. We'll try to always keep you guys up to date with everything. And let's see what other insane claims we're getting from the IRGC. We have this from uh the IDF that's just received. They have managed to eliminate over 40 Hezbollah fighters in one go. Wow. And uh we can show you this short clip that's been released by the Israeli Defense Forces themselves. Here we go. So, that's a launcher. So, essentially, um, the multi-dimensional unit has killed over 40 Hezbollah fighters and hit about 75 targets in southern Lebanon uh since the ground invasion uh began a few days ago. The troops recently destroyed a rocket launcher aimed at Israel and killed uh three nearby, and also killed six more in a separate strike. So, that's one of the launchers that was taken out out in the open, or they thinking, and then obviously the base was also, the unit was completely flattened by the Israeli Air Force. Great hit.
Now, is there Yeah, the latest update is they still have not managed to um rescue the pilots. Uh, we have uh an idiot in Iran offering 10 billion to which is $30,000. $30,000 uh to anybody who could capture the US pilots. Now, obviously $30,000 in Iran right now is is good money, but uh if you're outside of Iran, that's not much really for a bounty. And uh, but I'm going to show you this video. I'm just going to quickly get the translation on it. And uh if we have it.
>> Okay, I think we can get this ready. What is this guy talking about?
So apparently he is one of the financiers. What I'm about to show you is one of the financiers of uh the IRGC in Iran. And um, bear with me. I'm just going to get this sorted with the translator, the translation of it. This is a last-minute auto-subtitle translation. So, if there is any flaw in it, uh, I will correct it myself. Uh, so, yeah, I think we have it ready now. Okay, let's quickly go to this idiot who's apparently offering people $30,000, right? And if you capture one of, well, the the American, I don't know if it's for one pilot or two pilots, by the way. Let's just double check this with the with this guy. Okay, let's go. Two. Inshallah. Yeah, 10 billion Tomans. Uh, yeah, which is $30,000. Uh, yeah, good luck with that. Uh, but uh, some more reaction here from you guys. Um, we have Omid saying, uh, "Do you think it's the martyr and death-based ideology that prevents these idiots from surrendering?" Yeah, but it's also just very simple pride that uh could go too far with humans in general, just part of humanity. When your pride gets too much, you double down, and you can't really, I mean, that you become an ideologue, you have to double down, and it kind of undermines because it's not really just about your life as a terrorist, for example, or as an Islamist jihadi. It's not just about your life. It's not even just about your current possession or your property, which is Iran. They basically occupied it. It's also because you're an ideologue and you have a lot of pride, a lot of arrogance. It's also about your legacy, which is the ideology. It's the cause. If they do surrender, it will undermine the cause of radical insane Islam. That's the main problem. And they will always be known as the traitors, as the weak, feeble idiots. Whereas obviously, when they become martyrs, they are always known as champions and heroes. So, yeah, it's difficult for them to surrender. And also logically speaking, they don't really see any way out. They don't really see any safe place for them. Uh, where where are they going to go? Wherever they go, they can be hunted.
So, we just received an update from the IRGC that apparently, well, they claimed that the Americans hit something, but in fact, an IRGC missile malfunctioned and accidentally hit a residential area in the western parts of Tehran. And despite the fact that you're going to be hearing about this, by the way, over the next few hours, few days, few months, literally what I reported, you're going to hear about this from the likes of Tucker Carlson and all the others. They're going to say the Americans on purpose hit a residential area in Iran. But on this channel, we show you evidence. And we've just received the the verified video showing the moment of impact, and it proves this was in fact an IRGC missile that was launched from Tehran and hit Tehran. Watch this. So, that's that's where it's hit. You can see there. There we go. It's gone down.
>> And now Yeah, the guy is saying they launch it from that side.
>> It went down.
>> Yeah, they're worried about the civilians, the people in the video behind the camera. Yeah, you can see again u that's where that's when it hit, but it was launched from the right side, not too far. Now, obviously, they they're going to claim that the the Americans and the Israelis just killed Iranian civilians. That's that's the play. But the the evidence is there. You can see this was not a a fighter jet. This was a Taimur missile. Clearly, don't buy your missiles from Taimur. Not good. Uh, okay. So, uh, we will get more information. We just had another one as well, by the way. Uh, another same situation in Mashhad, which is the, uh, second largest city. And another IRGC missile accidentally hit the Mashhad International Airport. We don't know about the number of casualties yet or the level of damage, but we do know that that's happened. And of course, they're going to be blaming it on the Americans and the Israelis.
We will be getting an official statement from uh US Central Command shortly on the issue of the F-15E fighter jet. And uh we also have uh the deputy security of governor. No, the deputy security governor of Kuzestan. This is the same region where the the fighter jet allegedly went down, saying this afternoon, several helicopters and warplanes of the US army, army air force, okay, they don't know how to speak, were observed flying at low altitude in some parts of the province, but no operation uh landing by hostile forces took place in Kuzan. That's basically the only statement we have from uh governor saying that well, again, we don't know what they're saying, but we have we don't have any confirmation of actually the the Americans putting boots on the ground yet. So, we would have seen they do have to go they have to go and rescue them. They have to do all they can uh to bring these guys back home. Uh, it's not safe for them to be there. Obviously, they could get lucky and they could be saved by ordinary Iranian people on the ground. If they get lucky and if they get found by normal Iranians, they will be fine. But even that is not fully safe because eventually the IRGC obviously they've launched a hunt. They're going to come door-to-door to find the what they will call the American fugitives.
We have the latest updates also from Karaj, the city to the west of the capital. Latest air strikes. Yeah, that's a big one actually. Okay, let's take you back to uh Tel Aviv and get some more reaction. Who wants to be a trillionaire? Yeah, in Iran, trillionaire is basically just like being poor at this point. Their currency is completely insane. Pray that it's some good Iranian people that are hiding these pilots. Yeah, as I said, absolutely. Let's hope they could also be hiding themselves. They may they may have found somewhere else to just hide for now. But considering that uh the search and rescue operators have been flying around for hours and hours and they should be relatively in the area that it went down, I don't know. I'm not sure if the pilots are on their own just hiding because they could have just come out and get on a helicopter and go. The two scenarios is that either being saved by the Iranians on the ground or being captured by the IRGC terrorists. Heather says, "Thank you, Tousy. Happy Easter to you and yours." Thank you so much, Heather. If the pilots are found by Iranians, is there a 95% chance they will be by pro-revolution supporters? Uh, no. Um, it's the opposite. I don't know where you got that number from. So, 5% of the population in the country of Iran, 5% are pro-regime, pro-IRGC. Which means that 95% roughly speaking obviously are against the regime. So, this literally what you read is literally the opposite of that. Uh, but it depends on where they've gone down. If it's near where the IRGC are based, obviously it will be a lot easier for the Islamic regime members to find them. But the majority of people, 95% of the people in Iran are against the regime. So, they are living in occupied Iran, and they will be saving them. But if they do get lucky. But also the the other issue is that the Iranian people, the normal Iranian people currently are also hiding in their own homes. They're not leaving because they've been told not to leave. If you leave, if you just walk around the streets for no reason, you're going to get hit accidentally. So, are they going to risk their lives to come out and go and try to look for uh US pilots? The only people who are like looking right now obviously will be the IRGC. The US Secretary of Treasury already froze most of all of Iran's bank accounts. So, not sure how valuable monetarily speaking the reward could there. Yeah, I mean uh this is the money that they have to give to people inside the country. Obviously, the pro-regime Iranians, but uh still developing.
Iran says F-35 fighter jet was shot down over Iran. US denies incident. Diane, are you just going on random YouTube videos and like leaving comments instead of watching it? Literally, what are you doing? Copy and pasting it. Are you going on makeup channels as well and like prank channels? If you watch the report and also just read the title of the live stream and the thumbnail, you don't have to write this down. That makes no sense. It's just a waste of time. Uh, which weapon shot down the jets? We don't even know if they were actually shot down. They could have been uh it could have been a mechanical error, malfunction. It could be anything. Uh, but we do know it's down. That's all we know. And he had two pilots because it was an F-15E. So, that's all we know. The IRGC obviously uh they claimed to have shot it down, but uh now they're trying to find them as well. So, don't forget in Iran, especially in the southwest, you also have a huge number of CIA operatives and CIA assets. They could be contacted. They could also help them and uh to find a and create an exfil and a rendezvous essentially to then hand them over to the helicopters and the US Air Force. So, if they could obviously manage to get in touch with the the CIA assets on the ground, then that will be much easier. These guys could just go stay with them for a bit and then wait for the rescue mission and then um get uh exfil.
And also hang on. Seems like the last hour or so the strikes in Iran have massively escalated and also in uh Dah Lebanon as well. Major infrastructure attacks in Beirut also reported. Vladimir Putin, of all people, has now urged an immediate ceasefire. Interesting. He says he doesn't like wars. That's Putin from the Kremlin. Interesting. Okay, fair enough. I don't know what he's drinking. And uh yeah, they also continue to claim that a Black Hawk helicopter was shot down. We don't have any confirmation on that either. They can claim a lot of things. Yeah. There you go. Okay, I'll double check the latest on uh the search and rescue mission. Hopefully, um when we come back later on, we'll come back with some good news for you guys. Uh, maybe we'll even find out that uh they're absolutely fine and nothing's happened and everything's okay. Uh, but for now, the search and rescue operation continues and uh we'll take a break and when we get more information, we'll return to you guys. Thank you so much for watching. I'm Tusci, and we are the media.
