Heightened activity at the White House has sparked concern and speculation after President Donald Trump convened his national security team for urgent discussions. White House officials have confirmed that Trump has been receiving continuous updates throughout the day.
A senior White House official said the president has been working from the Oval Office and Oval Dining Room while closely monitoring developments.
The meeting of top national security officials suggests a potentially rapidly evolving situation involving a downed F-15 fighter jet in Iran and the subsequent search-and-rescue operations for the second crew member.
While details remain limited, Fox News reported that Donald Trump's national security team has gathered in the West Wing and has been updating the president on the downed US jet all day.
