The South Korean Air Force has dismissed two commanders following an accidental bombing incident involving fighter jets that targeted civilian areas. The incident occurred five days prior to the commanders' dismissal, which was attributed to significant negligence in their duties. The Ministry of National Defense has reported that the two pilots involved in the incident have been criminally charged with professional negligence resulting in injury. Investigations revealed that the pilots failed to correct incorrect coordinates on three occasions, which led to the accidental bombing. The Ministry is also set to review the pilots' flying qualifications next week.
