UAE fighter jet crashes in Aden

ADEN, March 14, 2016

A United Arab Emirates fighter jet has crashed in a mountainous area of the southern Yemeni city of Aden and the fate of the pilot was unknown, a local Yemeni official said on Monday.

Hani Al-Yazidi, director of the Buraiqa district in northern Aden, said authorities had found wreckage of the plane after it crashed into a mountain in the area.

His comments came after the UAE armed forces said one of its fighter jets from a Saudi-led alliance in Yemen was missing. -Reuters
