Two German armed forces Eurofighter jets have collided and crashed in the Müritz area of north-eastern Germany.

One of the Eurofighters went down in a forest while the other crashed near a village about 10km (6 miles) away, the interior ministry in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania said.

One pilot was killed while the pilot of the other jet was reported as having parachuted to safety. The pilot who survived was found dangling from a tree by rescue teams.
