Probe to snare Iran rescue leaker 'underway' as Trump threatens jail for imperiling arduous operation

An investigation is underway to find who leaked to the press that a U.S. airman was missing in Iran after a fighter jet was shot down on Good Friday, a source told Fox News Digital.

But another Israel N12 News reporter, Barak Ravid, wrote an article for Axios that was published hours before Segal's X post, which shared that one pilot was rescued and another was still missing. Ravid cited his sources as "an Israeli official and a second source with knowledge."

"They put this mission at great risk," Trump said. "They put that man at great risk, and they put the hundreds of people that went in looking for him, because everyone now knows that we're going in."

Fox News Digital reached out to CBS News, the Washington Post, Reuters and Israel's Channel 12 for comment. Axios declined to comment at this time.
