Trump says we're 'blowing up the whole country' if Iran doesn't make deal in 48 hours

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni departed from Jeddah on Saturday morning, the first stop on her visit to the Gulf region, during which she is also scheduled to meet with the leaders of Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, after she was received on Friday night by the Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman.

During the meeting, the two leaders discussed the defensive military assistance provided by Italy and exchanged views on the prospects of the Iran conflict amid ongoing efforts toward a diplomatic solution, officials said.

The meeting also provided an opportunity to discuss how to secure energy supplies and mitigate the conflict's impact on businesses and citizens.

The two leaders also agreed on the importance of ensuring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz as soon as possible.

A U.S. fighter jet was shot down by Iran over Iranian territory, and a search and rescue effort is underway, according to three U.S. officials.

One crew member aboard the downed two-seater F-15E has been rescued, according to a U.S. official. The status of the other crew member is unknown, the official said.

Amid the search and rescue mission, a second U.S. military aircraft and two Black Hawk helicopters involved in the effort were also struck by incoming fire, officials said.

A U.S. Air Force one-seater A-10 Warthog attack aircraft that was providing close air support for the mission was hit by incoming fire over Iran and crashed in Kuwait, according to a U.S. official. The pilot was rescued, according to the official. Their condition was unclear.

There were injuries to some of the crew aboard the Black Hawk helicopters, both of which were able to make it back to their base, a U.S. official said.
