The wreckage of a Philippine Air Force F-50 fighter jet, which had gone missing during a tactical night mission, was found on Mt. Kalatungan in Bukidnon province, southern Philippines, the military confirmed on Wednesday.
Both pilots aboard the jet tragically lost their lives in the crash, according to the Manila Times. The aircraft was located at 11 a.m. local time (03:00 GMT), as confirmed by Lt. Col. Salvacion Evangelista, spokesperson for the Eastern Mindanao Command. The condition of the jet was not disclosed, but an aerial reconnaissance team reported finding two bodies near the crash site.
The jet had disappeared on Tuesday during a tactical night operation, while ground forces were engaged in clashes with members of the New People's Army, a Maoist armed group, in Bukidnon.

The combined death toll from Typhoon Fung-wong and Typhoon Kalmaegi in the Philippines has reached 259, with 114 people still reported missing, state media says.
At least two people have died in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Fung-wong battered central and eastern regions, bringing torrential rain and powerful winds that knocked out electricity across much of the Bicol region ahead of its anticipated landfall in northern Luzon.
The Philippines' weather bureau warned of life-threatening storm surges of up to five metres and destructive winds as Typhoon Fung-wong churns toward the country's eastern coast, where it is forecast to intensify into a super typhoon before making landfall on Sunday night.
Typhoon Kalmaegi tore through Southeast Asia this week, killing at least 188 people in the Philippines before striking Vietnam’s central coast, where powerful gusts ripped roofs from homes, toppled trees, and left streets flooded and thousands without power.
