A Yemeni military training jet crashed on Wednesday in south Yemen due to a technical problem, a defence ministry official said.
The L-39 training aircraft crashed in the area of Salah al-Din, west of the port city of Aden, the official said, according to the ministry-linked news website 26Sep.net.
He said the aircraft, manufactured in the former Czechoslovakia, encountered a technical problem during training.
A security official told AFP earlier that the pilot survived.
