This is the astonishing moment an American pilot shouts ‘I’m OK’ to locals after crash-landing in the Kuwaiti desert.
Six US Air Force members survived after parachuting to safety following a mistaken friendly fire incident during an Iranian air assault, the US military said.
One man was approached by a group of locals armed with AK-47s who presumed he was a shot-down Iranian pilot reportedly due to the colour of his parachute.
He is seen surrendering, with one local holding up a pipe.
Another was pictured with a badly damaged hand before being loaded into the boot of a car and taken to safety.
The Kuwaitis argue about what to do with him before one says ‘he’s an American, leave him’.
