Flying Objects Seen in Shakhty Area

This Central Intelligence Agency information report, distributed 9 August 1955, relays unevaluated observations of flying objects near Shakhty in the Rostov Oblast, USSR. It says prisoners of war at the Ayuta camp saw three silent, reddish, fiery objects cross the sky at intervals one evening in August 1953 before they disappeared toward the Ayuta mines. Field comments note that earlier Shakhty reports described loud engine noise and suggest the objects were propelled by a ramjet or rocket engine.
