    Two pilots of the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) embraced martyrdom after a trainer aircraft crashed near Peshawar during a routine training mission on Tuesday, according to a statement issued by the PAF spokesperson.

    The spokesperson said that while both the pilots sustained fatal injuries, no loss of life or property was reported on the ground.

    "A board of inquiry has been constituted by the Air Headquarters to determine the cause of the incident," he added.

    In December, two pilots embraced martyrdom after a Pakistan Army aviation helicopter crashed at Siachen in Gilgit-Baltistan's (GB) Ghanche district. The ISPR had not given a reason for the accident.
