This is said to be the moment an American pilot shouts "I'm fine" to locals after crash-landing in the Kuwaiti desert.
Six US Air Force members survived after parachuting after a friendly fire incident during an Iranian airstrike, the US military said. Metro, the Telegraph reports.
According to the British media outlet, a man approached a group of locals armed with AK-47s who assumed he was a downed Iranian pilot, reportedly because of the color of his parachute.
He is seen surrendering.
Another was photographed with an injured hand before being loaded into the trunk of a car and taken to safety.
Kuwaitis debate what to do with him before one says "he's an American, leave him alone."
A female F-15 crew member is seen standing alone in the Kuwaiti desert as a man approaches her.
She brushes the sand off her suit, but appears unharmed.
The man asks, "Are you okay? Really? Do you need anything to help you?"
She replies: "No, I'm fine."
Meanwhile, Al Arabia English, the site that also shared the footage, says in its description that vEyewitness footage shows a US fighter pilot landing safely after her plane was mistakenly hit by Kuwaiti Air Defense Force fire in an apparent friendly fire incident during the conflict with Iran.
As the British media outlet points out, all six crew members were safely ejected from the F-15E Strike Eagles aircraft, which can only reach speeds of around 2,000 mph, and were in stable condition after being ejected, the US said.
On the other hand, Iranian state television claimed that Iran had targeted one of the US planes that crashed in Kuwait without providing details. /Telegrafi/
