BREAKING: US F-15 Fighter Jet Crashes in Kuwait | WILD FOOTAGE
The pilot ejected safely over Kuwait.
Social media platforms, particularly X, are abuzz with claims of a U.S. Air Force F-15 fighter jet crashing over Kuwait earlier today, with the pilot reportedly ejecting safely.
The footage depicts a fighter jet descending with visible flames or smoke from its rear, followed by what appears to be an ejection sequence and the aircraft spiraling downward.
Israel Live News explains: Reports say the US fighter jet that went down over Kuwait was hit by another US aircraft after a mistaken identification. Both pilots are reported to have survived.
No official confirmation has emerged from the U.S. military or Kuwaiti authorities.
Historical precedents for friendly fire involving U.S. jets exist, such as the December 2024 Red Sea incident with an F/A-18.
