"Donald Trump lashed out at he media firm who he claimed had 'leaked' information in the search for the second US airman in Iran, speaking from the White House on Monday. "We didn't talk about the first one for an hour. Then somebody leaked something - which we'll hopefully find that leaker, we're looking very hard to find that leaker - and talked about there's somebody missing," he said. "They basically said that we have one and there's somebody missing. Well, they didn't know there was somebody missing until this leaker gave the information." "So, whoever it was, we think we'll be able to find it out because we're going to go to the media company that released it, and we're going to say, national security, give it up or go to jail," he added. The F-15 fighter jet was downed over Iran on Friday, with the US launching a frantic search after both crew ejected. The pilot was reported to have been rescued the same day, with the helicopter carrying him also reportedly hit by Iranian air defences - although the US claimed it had landed safely. Iranian state media had broadcast a 'reward' for the capture of the two crew. The second crewmember was rescued by the US side on Sunday, with Trump posting:"We have rescued the seriously wounded, and really brave, F-15 Crew Member/Officer, from deep inside the mountains of Iran… An AMAZING show of bravery and talent by all!"
