A church has been damaged after fighter jets accidentally dropped eight bombs over a South Korean village during military training exercises. The incident also left 15 people injured and houses damaged, Premier Christian News reveals.

The incident is believed to have occurred because a pilot entered incorrect coordinates which caused the jets to drop four bombs each, all of which detonated. The South Korean Air Force has wished those impacted a “speedy recovery”.
