Summary: Military personnel reported watching a large object hovering above the base for three days consecutive. Three small objects were seen departing the larger craft and one landed on the base grounds. A Colonel accompanied by an armed security detachment was sent to meet the landed craft. While waiting outside the men watched a short stocky humanoid disembark from the craft. A green beam of light was then aimed at the Colonel from inside the object causing him to become paralyzed. Orders were then issued to fire on the object and humanoid but all weapons mysteriously jammed. The object and humanoid eventually departed into the larger hovering craft. No other information.

Summary: A 6-year old girl named Oksana Plotova who lived in a house near the base of Old Uktus Mountain awoke early one morning, sat on her bed and suddenly saw a strange entity standing at the corner of her bedroom. The entity was dwarf-like, about 60-80 cm in height, somehow resembling a “wrinkled woman”. The girl although thought that the entity also looked like a doll. The entity’s skin was completely black and the eyes were totally white in color. The humanoid stared at the girl with its large eyes, unblinkingly. Very frightened, Oksana laid on her bed refusing to move. When her parents awoke early in the morning she looked at the corner and the entity was already gone. She later speculated that she had seen a “chud” an entity described in numerous Uralian legends as inhabitants of underground realms that had gone underground ages ago and still live there.

Summary: A hinting inspections officer flying on board a Mi-4 helicopter, with several other men and 3 pilots on a routine flight from Omsk saw at approximately 300-400 kilometers north-northeast of Omsk in the taiga a huge disk-shaped object on the ground, stuck in a bog. According to the witnesses report the disk was quite large in diameter, probably 30 meters in size, with a silvery surface which reflected the sun, probably lens-shaped, with a convexo-convex structure. The disk-shaped craft was partially sunk into the bog, near the pine forest in a tilted position. There wasn’t any safe area around to land for the helicopter and it had to continue its flight. They heard nothing more about it.

Summary: 7-year old Elena Sokolova was returning home from school, and when walked inside the yard of her multistory apartment complex she was amazed to see the yard totally devoid of people. She thought that it was impossible, since at this time of day there were usually dozens of people about, mothers with their young children, elderly residents, people walking their dogs, etc, but on this date there wasn’t a single soul around. She kept walking and suddenly saw a strange “man” appear near her. The man looked extremely weird, he was of a small height, completely bald, and dressed in a red colored loose overall with unknown symbols on the breast area, which resembled hieroglyphs. In general the strange man somehow resembled a monk. The stranger stood staring at the witness and then made a gesture with his hand, beckoning Elena to come closer to him. Terrified she turned around and ran to her apartment without looking back. (She would have further encounters)

Summary: Lyyli Nilsson had been out fishing with her 11 year old daughter. The girl left her and went home. As the child came to a ridge she saw two persons wearing overall like outfits and a bit further up a brownish bell shaped object. A while later her mother passed the same place and saw the men who talked between themselves in an unknown language. Hiding about 40 meters from them, she saw that they were of a Nordic type and wore silvery overall like outfits. Their craft stood a bit further up on the ridge. When she came home her daughter confirmed Mrs Nilsson observation.

Summary: C. W. Hickman saw a lighted, oval shaped object land on 4 legs 40 ft away. From an opening, unlike a door, emerged 4 women and 2 men; the women 6 ft tall, slender and light complexioned, with curly hair under 3 inch headbands and dressed in two piece suits with short skirts and high boots, reassured him as they escorted him back to their craft. The men remained silent and were of dark complexions, wearing tight fitting uniforms. He was taken on board the craft into a large central room, then into a smaller adjoining room where he was compelled to inject some white powder, after which his clothes were removed. He was sponged with a fluid while being monitored by a small device like a camera. The ship took off, arriving at its destination after a short flight. He was taken into an oblong white building, in a landscape covered with white sand. In the building he saw complex electronic equipment. He felt no fear, but believes he was heavily sedated. He believes he may also have been sexually molested. He was then taken back aboard the craft and returned, after another short trip, to the site where he had been abducted. He suffered no ill effects upon his return but did develop pneumonia about 3 weeks later. The signification of the experience eluded him, although he later reported seeing one of the women in an Austin Texas supermarket; “Oh, they’re right here with us. They are all around us,” he told the investigating reporter.

Summary: The witness, 10-11 year old, Nevin Pfaltzgraff, son of missionaries posted in this isolated area near the border with the Cameroons was exploring an area several hundred yards from the back of the house not far from the base of a very large hill that had a sloped rock escarpment going up it. He was about 100 yards from it separated by large berry bushes through which he could see the rock. Suddenly, movement drew his attention and looking in that direction he saw several “humanoid” beings walking across the rock in single file, staring ahead. He does not remember the number but he thinks that it was between 3 and 5. The distance made it hard to judge their height, but his impression was that they were about 5ft tall. They were orange/red in color and did not appear to be clothed or carrying anything, they seemed asexual and could not see any details on the facial features. The most significant aspect of the experience (according to Nevin) was his reaction: He instantly “knew” that what he was seeing was abnormal, although at the time, being cut off from the news and the rest of the world he had no knowledge of UFOs or aliens. He was “electrified” as though all his hair over his body was standing on end and he ran from the there as fast as he could. The witness at first thought that these had been orange monkeys, but the beings he saw were too tall, had no tails and walked like humans.

Summary: At the same time that his cousin, Gail Wilkins watched a gigantic cylindrical shaped object while driving along Linebrook Road, Jeffrey Morgan Foss (involved in other encounters) was taken aboard an object that was apparently launched from the large cigar-shaped mothership. Onboard the craft he remembered that several female and male “grays” were kind and gentle to him. The male being reflected tenderness by placing his hand on Foss’ while the female was helping Foss to remember about their mutual love for waterfalls (?). He was shown a simple test tube with yellow and red blood cells; genetics/incubation technology; self-sustaining deep voyage artificial environment production technology; and microscopic liquid chips. Then they escorted him through a curved corridor running between the inner drum shaped central control room and the outer edge of the disc. Just 15 feet or so around the curved corridor to the left was a room on the right which was very dark without room or control lights. There was a “homeworld head” there that examined Foss closely and then reflected approval to the male and female grays about the project which in this case was Foss himself. He noticed, as his eyes adjusted to the dark, bumps all over the being’s head. At first he thought it was a disease but then he saw they were laid out in a perfect pattern. Then he saw a hair-thin line on his forehead. He was wearing a skin-tight cap with perfectly matched the gray of his skin bearing sensors. Upon telepathic inquiry, it was revealed they were for (wireless) multitask fleet communications.

The whole body of the stranger was covered with hair. The “alien” had less hair on his face. The color of the hair was dirty gray. They stood facing each other for a few minutes, after that the alien without saying a word, made a slight sound with his lips and walked away into the darkness. With a little difficulty the stunned woman walked back to her home.

Summary: The witness was getting ready to go to bed and was clothing the bedroom window when she noticed, not 6 ft from the trailer a “being”, Sasquatch in appearance. She told her husband but this one ignored her. The being suddenly got up, as it had been sitting under a tree and walked toward the window. He was tall, about 8 to 9 ft tall. The being was looking directly into her eyes. He was completely covered in light and dark tan fur, except for its face which was a light tan color; the eyes were large, dark, dark brown not black as she could see the pupil and slightly protruding as they seemed to be the most prominent feature. As she started to back away from the window, it raised its right hand (huge and there were 4 fingers and a thumb) and she heard in her mind a soft voice saying, “Do not be afraid, I will not harm you.” As she heard this a feeling of peace and calm came over her and the being smiled and started talking to her…telepathically. Her next memory was of waking up the next morning sleeping next to her husband and not remembering what had happened.

Summary: Because of the tense relations between the USSR and China at the time, Soviet KGB frontier troops intensified their patrols in the territories of the Russian Far East which bordered the People’s Republic of China. One night the crew of a Soviet patrol boat on the River Amur spotted a suspicious object flying in from the Chinese bank of the Amur. When the strange object came closer the men on the boat realized that the object resembled a winged human figure. The wings were visibly flapping in the air as the entity flew overhead. At the moment that the winged figure crossed the frontier into Russia the frontier guards opened fire with their automatic weapons. The flying entity stopped moving its wings and glided down sharply to the nearby taiga and dense pine forest. The crew of the patrol boat radioed headquarters about the incident and the order was given to find the object or creature whatever it was. The KGB frontier guards suspected that the figure was probably a Chinese spy, wearing some kind of flying apparatus or equipment. However a thorough search which included dogs conducted by the frontier guards proved fruitless. The mysterious flying man had disappeared.

The object had sort of a hypnotic effect on the witness, which suddenly found herself being pulled from her body and out of the bedroom window. She then found herself in a garden adorned with oriental statues, standing in a long line of people who all waited silently. Soon she was on a chair surrounded by several beings. The room she was in was dark and she was unable to see the being’s features clearly, but they were apparently humanoid. She was handed an object and was told to do something, she refused, thinking that the beings were evil. She began screaming and suddenly found herself back on her bed.

Summary: A brother and sister were asleep, when the sister awoke to a noise outside. She then awoke her brother. The noise was loud, but no one else woke (even another brother nearby refused to rouse when they tried to wake him). The sound turned higher in pitch, like whistles, and a bright light shone through the curtains. The sister was getting hysterical, saying that they were going to die. Then the sound grew softer. Their pet chickens were running around excitedly, and a small disk went over the house. The object seemed to land or at least stop right over the house. There were then three “zzzf” sounds and a light so bright that it was like daylight. A ladder-like object descended very shiny metal. Both the sister and brother fainted. The next morning both of them were in one bed covered with sweat. The parents wanted to know what had happened. “And I said to her, “We’ve come to visit you like you’ve come to visit us. We mean no harm. Please do not be frightened. We see that you are frightened. We shall leave, but we shall return. When we return, please do not be frightened.” And then they all went away. Mom was saying, “What are you saying! What is it? Get out of there!” So my dad took me to the kitchen and my mom took my sister to the bedroom and let her tell her story.

Summary: The 5-year old witness (involved in other encounters) was lying down on his bed when a ball of light came into the bedroom. It was bluish in color, violet. And it was very bright, but the light did not hurt his eyes. This light transformed into a woman. She was about 2.20m in height, the witness was just a small child so it was difficult for him to ascertain her exact size, but she was very tall. She had raid hair and her eyes were green, but water green, transparent green, very strange eyes. She had very white skin and her lips were pin, perfect, her features were perfect. He remembers that she leaned over him and said, “Don’t worry”. He heard that inside his brain (telepathy). “Don’t worry everything is going to be OK.” Then he found himself inside a room with a metallic bed and there was a bubble around him, like a soup bubble, transparent. And the same woman was outside the bubble looking at him. She was “talking” to him, telling him that they were going to put something in him. “Don’t worry, relax, everything is going to be OK. We are your friends.” He was very afraid, but when she began talking to him, somehow his fear diminished and he became calmer. She could penetrate the bubble, with a very thin crystal, shining crystal in her hand, and she said she was going to put that on him, on the back of his neck. And she did that, he felt pain. This is the end of his memories.
