Police say two Pakistani air force planes have crashed on a training mission in the country’s northwest, killing all four pilots.

The cause of the accident was not immediately clear.

One of the two-seater propeller Mushshak planes crashed on a house, injuring a girl and an elderly man, and the second fell in nearby fields in the Rashkai area, 160 kilometers (100 miles) northwest of the capital.
