In a tragic accident on Monday, a Bangladesh Air Force training jet crashed into the Milestone School and College campus in Diabari, Dhaka, resulting in at least one fatality and four injuries, according to military sources and fire officials.
The jet, identified as an F-7 BGI, was conducting a training mission when it plummeted onto school premises, sparking a massive fire. Black smoke was visible from afar, creating panic in the area. Eyewitness videos captured the chaotic aftermath, showing large flames and a thick plume rising near a school lawn.
Emergency response was swift, with eight fire service units dispatched to contain the blaze. The Bangladesh Army confirmed that four injured individuals were rescued and transported for treatment.
