Videos circulating on social media purportedly showed an F-15 descending in a slow spiral, with flames trailing from the rear of the jet. However, it was not immediately confirmed whether the aircraft belonged to the United States or Israel, both of which operate F-15 fighter planes.
The pilot ejected safely, as per multiple media reports.
