Two Italian air force Tornado fighter jets had an mid air collision on Tuesday over Italy and crashed into a hilly region.

The two Tornado had taken off from the permanent base of the 6 ° Stormo of Ghedi, in the province of Brescia, for a training mission planned, in preparation for a NATO exercise scheduled for next autumn.

Witnesses said a fireball formed as the jets collided and erupted in flames.

The fate of the two pilots and two navigators is still unknown and a search is being continued.
