Bangladesh Air Force Jet Crashes in Dhaka College Campus, Rescue Operations Underway

Early reports from fire service and AP officials confirm at least one person has died and several others are injured. The cause remains under investigation.

The Air Force statement notes the aircraft was on a routine training mission; authorities are now examining whether mechanical failure or pilot error played a role.

Video footage circulating on social media showed emergency responders rushing to evacuate students and extinguish the fire that engulfed parts of the school premises.

As questions mount over how a military jet crashed in a densely populated urban area during school hours, public concern is growing. How did the aircraft veer so far off course? Was it a technical malfunction or human error? Could the tragedy have been prevented?

Government officials have assured a thorough investigation and pledged support for the victims’ families.

This is not the first time an F‑7 aircraft has raised safety concerns. Bangladesh, like several other nations, has been using Chinese-made F-7 jets for training purposes, but their safety record has come under scrutiny over the years.

The incident has once again raised uncomfortable questions about aviation safety, civilian risk zones, and emergency preparedness.
