ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) — A Croatian military fighter jet crashed near the capital Tuesday and its pilot ejected without injury, the defense ministry said.

The MIG-21 had earlier taken part in a flyover during celebrations by Croatian officials marking the 19th anniversary of the offensive that liberated its Serb-held territories in the war of independence.
