TURKISH FIGHTER JETS CRASH KILLS FOUR


Four people are feared dead after two Turkish military jets collided over central Turkey.

The F-4 jets were taking part in a training exercise.


The accident occurred near the central city of Konya, 160 miles south of the capital Ankara.

The people believed dead were the pilots and co-pilots.

Air force officials were not immediately available for comment.

The jets crashed into a mountainside, sparking a fire in the wooded area.

Several Turkish military aircraft have crashed in recent months.

A Sikorsky helicopter went down in eastern Turkey in February, killing all five crew members.

In January, an F-4 jet crashed, killing two pilots.
