According to him, the personnel who lost their lives had dedicated themselves to national service, making their death a painful loss to the Air Force and the country.
“In this moment of deep sorrow, our thoughts and prayers are with the grieving families of the fallen heroes, as well as the entire NAF family,” Marwa said.
