A Pakistan Air Force (PAF) Mirage jet crashed near Jhang's Athara Hazari area on Tuesday, a PAF spokesperson said.

The aircraft crashed while on "routine operation training". No loss of life was reported, according to the PAF, as the pilot was safely ejected from the jet.

In April, an Army-owned Mushshak aircraft experiencing a 'technical failure' crashed into a tree in Kalowal near Jhelum.

The aircraft was on a routine flight when it crashed into a tree and was fully damaged in the crash. The pilot remained unhurt.
