SEREMBAN, June 25 — The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) confirmed that one of its personnel was killed while two coaches were injured during weapons training at the Basic Grenade Training Site in the Syed Sirajuddin Camp, Gemas, this afternoon.
In a statement today, RMAF said the incident occurred at about 12.10 pm when the personnel were undergoing support weapon and hand grenade training.
It said the victim, a student of the defence assistant enhancement course class 1 Series 78/23, died at the scene.
“The two injured coaches were given early treatment at Gemas Army Hospital and were then referred to Segamat Hospital.
“RMAF has contacted the next of kin of those involved and handed over the case to the police,” it said, adding that the force would set up an Investigation Board to identify the cause of the incident.
