Trump jokes about keeping Iran's oil as crews desperately search for downed pilot

President Donald Trump joked about confiscating Iran's oil as search crews were desperately trying to find a fighter pilot who was downed in the war-torn country.

"KEEP THE OIL, ANYONE?" Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday while the search was underway.

Hours earlier, an F-15E crashed in southern Iran. One pilot was rescued, and a search for the second pilot was reportedly in progress.

Iran was reportedly offering its citizens a reward valued at about $76,000 U.S. dollars to find the missing pilot alive, CNN reported.

A second combat aircraft, an A-10 Warthog, crashed in the Persian Gulf at about the same time, officials told The New York Times.
