Trump threatened to jail journalists who refuse to identify the source behind a leak revealing a second airman was stranded in Iran, saying: "National security. Give it up or go to jail." He called the leaker "a sick person."

Trump said the leak alerted Iranian forces to the missing airman's presence, complicating the rescue. Iran reportedly offered a reward for the airman's capture, adding to the danger faced by U.S. forces during the operation.

Experts questioned whether Iran's ability to shoot down two U.S. aircraft on the same day reflected improved targeting capabilities or outside assistance, with one analyst asking whether China or Russia had provided targeting help to Iranian forces.

Iran's Foreign Ministry disputed the U.S. account of the rescue mission, with spokesperson Esmail Baghaei calling it a "blatant violation of Iranian sovereignty" and raising the possibility the operation aimed to seize enriched uranium stockpiles near Isfahan.

Iranian state media also broadcast images of what it said were identity documents recovered from a destroyed U.S. aircraft in Isfahan, attributed to a person named "Amanda M. Ryder," believed to be a U.S. Air Force Major. The U.S. has not confirmed the documents.
