The Iranian Embassy in South Africa has strengthened communication and referred to Iran’s historical treatment of prisoners of war. “In Iran, the rights of prisoners of war were defined long before the establishment of so-called humanitarian law. We will not treat prisoners of war like your barbaric allies, the Zionists. We have Iranian civilization. We are not living in the Stone Age like the United States,” it said.
Military pilots said the missing F-15 crew may try to elude the Iranian military for as long as possible in the hope that U.S. Special Forces arriving by helicopter can assist in rescuing them.
