Published in Saudi Press Agency on 22 - 08 - 2015

AlQa'dah 7, 1436, Aug 22, 2015, SPA -- A military jet taking part in a British air show plunged to the ground Saturday and crashed into a busy road in southern England, killing seven people and injuring 15.
According to dpa, the South East Coast Ambulance Service confirmed the seven fatalities and posted on Twitter: "Thoughts are with the families and loved ones."
It said one person had serious, life-threatening injuries and was taken to Royal Sussex County Hospital. An additional 14 people were treated for minor injuries.
West Sussex police said a number of helicopters were deployed to evacuate the casualties to hospital.
Police advised all drivers to avoid the A27 road for the rest of the day, and said it had been closed in both directions following the crash of the Hawker Hunter jet.
The Air Accident Investigation Bureau was at the site.
