Videos geolocated by CNN to be near Ali Al Salem Air Base, which hosts US forces, appear to show a fighter jet pilot on the ground in Kuwait after ejecting from an aircraft. In one of the videos, a man in a full flight suit and helmet can be seen kneeling on the ground next to an orange and white parachute and a parachute cord in a desert area near a fence line. In another video, the pilot is seen standing up as bystanders look on, with thick black smoke billowing in the distant background.
