It should be recalled that last year in October, training aircraft crashed in the Gandaf area of Swabi. The incident occurred while the plane was performing routine training exercises.

Fortunately, no lives were lost in the crash. According to authorities, the pilot and crew managed to safely eject from the aircraft using parachutes before the impact. Both individuals escaped without injury, though the plane was destroyed.
