YANGON, Oct. 16 (Xinhua) -- Two military fighter jets crashed in Minbu township in Myanmar's Magway region Tuesday morning, killing two pilots, according to the Myanmar Air Force.

A female student on the ground died of being hit by pieces of the wreckage in the incident.

The Office of the Commander-in-Chief of the Defense Services attributed the incident to bad weather, saying that two out of four jet fighters crashed while returning to Magway air base after flight training at 7:30 a.m. local time.

Despite successful landing of the first two fighters amid bad weather condition, the two others failed with one crashing near Sapwet creek bridge, south of Minbu, while the other near a field, 1 km west of Tanatpinsu village.

The pieces of the wreckage of the fighter that crashed near Sapwet creek bridge, hit a female high school student who died at the hospital with injury.

According to an initial report of the Air Force, one fighter jet hit a tower pole and its wing clapped with that of another aircraft, thus crashing together.

The local police were investigating the incident.
