A Bangladeshi Air Force jet crashed Monday into Milestone School and College in the capital of Dhaka during a training exercise.
At least 19 are dead.
This happened today at about 1:10 p.m. local time.
A Bangladesh air force training aircraft crashed into a school campus in the capital, Dhaka, shortly after takeoff on Monday, killing at least 19 people, including the pilot, and injuring more than 100, officials said.
According to the military and a fire official, the Chinese-made F-7 BGI aircraft crashed into the campus of Milestone School and College, in the Uttara neighborhood, in the afternoon as students were attending classes.
India's PM Modi said his nation stands ready to help if needed.
Last month, a similar crash involving Air India hit a university and killed more than 240 people. To make matters in the current situation worse, there are Indian accounts out there making fun of Bengalis who had laughed at the Air India tragedy, calling it karma.
Just awful. Pray for the absolute state of the world.
