Saudi fighter jet crashes in Yemen: coalition

Riyadh: A Saudi fighter jet crashed in conflict-torn Yemen, the Riyadh-led military coalition said Saturday.

###

The Tornado aircraft came down on Friday in northern Al Jawf province during an operation to support Yemeni government forces, the coalition said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency.

###

The coalition did not specify the fate of the crew or the cause of the crash.

###

The coalition intervened against the Iran-backed rebels in 2015, first with air and naval forces and later with ground forces as well.

###

On Wednesday, the coalition said it will put on trial military personnel suspected of being behind deadly air strikes on Yemeni civilians.
