Two German Eurofighter jets have crashed in the north-eastern state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the Interior Ministry has confirmed.
The planes have reportedly fallen into a residential area, according to the German media.
However, one of the two pilots involved in the midair collision is dead, broadcaster n-tv reported, citing local police.
The accident, during a training flight, happened over northern Fleesensee Lake near the town of Malchow, a tweet showed.
Another tweet said the crash has triggered some forest fire, which is spreading because of drought.
