A military jet crashed during a training exercise for an air show in southern Bulgaria on Friday, killing both men on board, local authorities said.

The L-39ZA jet burst into flames after crashing into a wooded area near the military base.

"Two pilots were killed during training for a demonstration flight," caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev told journalists at the southern Graf Ignatievo air base.
