Islamabad: A Pakistan Air Force (PAF) jet crashed in Punjab province on Saturday but there was no loss of life or damage to property, the PAF said.

The pilot and the instructor ejected safely, he said. The PAF said that a technical problem could be the cause of the crash. A board of enquiry has been formed to investigate the accident.
