Soviet soldiers petrified after contact with aliens — Fox News

Soviet soldiers died after contact with the inhabitants of a downed extraterrestrial UFO. This is stated in a declassified document published on the CIA website, Fox News reports.

"If the KGB dossier is true, then this is an extremely threatening case. Aliens have such weapons and technologies that surpass all our assumptions. They can stand up for themselves if they are attacked," a CIA representative is quoted in the report, the Strana newspaper writes.

The document says that the information received by US intelligence contained data on a "low-flying saucer-shaped spacecraft" over a Soviet unit participating in the exercises. According to its authors, "for unknown reasons," the soldiers launched a surface—to-air missile at an unknown aircraft, as a result of which it crashed near a military base.

It is noted that five short humanoids with "big heads and big black eyes" appeared from the crashed spacecraft and merged together, creating a "single object", while making a loud buzzing sound. Then the spherical object flashed with a blinding bright light. As a result, only two men out of 23 survived, because they were in the shadows and were not completely exposed to the flash of light. The others were petrified.

According to Canadian Weekly World News, the alleged incident occurred between 1989 and 1990, it was first reported in 1993.

According to RIA Novosti, the CIA published a dossier about the alleged deaths of Soviet soldiers after a UFO encounter, citing an article from a Ukrainian newspaper.

"At the very beginning of the document, it is indicated that the text is a reprint of an article entitled "Cosmic Revenge" from the Ukrainian newspaper Ternopil Evening, which was also published in the Kiev newspaper Voice of Ukraine on March 27, 1993," the agency reports.
