A Myanmar MiG-29UB fighter jet crashed on Thursday in a rural area of the central Magway region due to a technical malfunction during training maneuvers. As reported by the state television MRTV, the pilot ejected and was evacuated.

Myanmar's armed forces have lost at least four helicopters and three fighter jets since General Min Aung Hlaing seized power in February 2021, after which fighting broke out in the country. Government forces, which are currently on the offensive in various parts of the country, are intensively using aviation.

The militants claimed several times that they hit aircraft, but there is no evidence that the lost helicopters and planes were shot down.

Local residents report that when the MiG-29UB crashed in the Magway region, the plane crashed into a field in the western part of the village, two pilots ejected safely. He added that security forces were trying to check the mobile phones of the village's population for possible photos of the wreckage that had been posted online.

Supplies to Myanmar of combat aircraft and other military equipment and other materiel are mainly carried out by China and Russia. Many Western countries support an arms embargo against this country in addition to other sanctions. In particular, attempts are being made to block the supply of aviation fuel in order to prevent attacks from the air.
