Investigative committee formed to probe crash

Air Force chief Amir Eshel has appointed a committee to probe the deadly crash of an F-16 earlier in the day, the army says.

The plane apparently caught fire while attempting to land, according to a Channel 10 report.

The navigator, who also ejected from the jet, suffered light injuries, an IDF statement says.
