| 0:00.0 | Hi there, everybody. It is 4 o'clock in New York. I'm Eam al-Mohydin in today for Nicole Wallace. |
| 0:11.8 | Right now, we are monitoring a developing situation inside Iran, specifically a U.S. military |
| 0:17.9 | search and rescue operation that is underway as we speak. It is for an American |
| 0:22.9 | service member somewhere inside Iran's borders. That is according to a U.S. official with knowledge |
| 0:28.4 | of the matter. Again, this is a fast evolving story, but here's what we know at this hour. |
| 0:33.5 | A U.S. F-15 fighter jet, a combat vessel that seats two, a pilot and a weapon systems |

| 1:33.5 | since he told the American people |
| 1:35.1 | in a prime time address from the White House |
| 1:37.4 | that U.S. goals in the region |
