However, the American command reassured that there's no evidence suggesting the crash was due to hostile actions.

"We can categorically state that the flight was purely a training operation and nothing indicates any hostile actions took place," representatives of the command said. No details about the type of aircraft that crashed were revealed.

It's worth noting that the situation in the Middle East is currently tense. After the outbreak of war between Israel and Palestinian Hamas in early October, the United States deployed several warships in the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. These include the aircraft carriers "USS Dwight D. Eisenhower" and "USS Gerald R. Ford".
