An Israeli air force jet crashed in Lebanon due to a technical malfunction, the IDF announced on Wednesday.
There is no concern over security issues nor over an information leak.
The incident is being investigated.
IDF plane crashes are a fairly rare occurrence
The most recent IDF plane crash occurred last August, when an aircraft crashed in the maritime area off the coast of Palmachim due to a technical malfunction.
IDF forces later recovered the aircraft.
Several weeks later, an IDF helicopter crashed in an unexplained accident in Rafah, killing two soldiers, including the lead pilot, and wounding seven soldiers on board.
The accident occurred after midnight in an attempt to rescue a wounded soldier in the field with Unit 669 forces.
Further, the accident occurred when the helicopter was close to the ground. The accident occurred after midnight in an attempt to rescue a wounded soldier in the field with Unit 669 forces.
