A US military aircraft with four people onboard has reportedly crashed in northern Norway while taking part in Nato military exercises, APA reports citing BBC.
Norway's federal search and rescue co-ordination agency told Reuters that a V-22 Osprey on a training flight went missing during bad weather on Friday.
According to Reuters, a spokesman later confirmed it had "hit the ground".
The status of its four passengers is not currently known.
Norway's public broadcaster NRK has confirmed "challenging weather conditions in the area" probably caused the accident.
Authorities are searching the area by land and air.
A significant Nato exercise is said to be taking place in the country, with several Ospreys on site.
