Videos have surfaced on social media, purportedly showing the crash of a PLAAF Su-35 in Guangxi.
The accident scene is about 6 km NW of Guilin Qifengling (Li Chia Tsun) Air Base.
The Air Base is the home of the 5th AF Division which is equipped by Chengdu J-10 fighter jets. Likely a J-10 was involved instead of the Su-35 as reported in social media.
