Washington, May 18 (SANA) Two U.S. Navy fighter jets collided during an air show at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho on Sunday, forcing all four crew members to eject safely, according to U.S. media reports.

Agence France-Presse, citing KOMO News, reported that the two EA-18G Growler aircraft collided during an aerial demonstration before crashing near the base.

No fatalities were reported, and authorities said all four crew members parachuted safely to the ground.

The collision prompted officials to cancel the remainder of the air show and temporarily close the military base, the report said.

Videos circulating on social media appeared to show the aircraft colliding mid-air before crashing and erupting into flames. Parachutes carrying the crew members could be seen descending nearby.
