INDONESIA – Seven fighter jets from a French aircraft carrier made unscheduled landings in Indonesia on Saturday due to bad weather.

An Indonesian official said the Dassault Rafale jets touched down safely at Sultan Iskandar Muda air force base in Aceh.

Five were back while the other two were still at the base on Sunday.

The carrier was about 100 nautical miles west of Sumatra island, where Aceh province is located. (BBC)
