Rogatina I. V. and her 11-year old daughter named Lena and 2 other boys, Dima
and Zhenya reported seeing a saucer-shaped UFO hovering above some nearby
power lines for about 10 minutes and then fly over the Volga River. The object
passed to within 60-100 meters of the witnesses. Lena said that it had been a
beautiful sight; the UFO was rotating and emanated green and red lights. The
object had a transparent cupola on top which appeared to be made out of glass. The
glass like dome was joined to metallic plates on the body of the craft by what
appeared to be bolts. Dima said that the bolt’s heads were round. Because of the
transparency of the dome the witnesses were able to see several instruments inside, a
control panel, a chair near the panel and two “shadows” that appeared to be doing
something near the control panel, they also saw a “face” looking out the window.
The children became afraid of the face and after jumping down from an apple tree
ran home. The UFO then gained altitude and ascended towards the nearby
hydroelectric power station where it vanished from sight. The UFO was estimated to
have been the size of a helicopter.

Alexander Kluchenya a student at the Cherepovets military radio and electronics
school was guarding his post at a fence when he suddenly noticed stones falling
down from the roof of a nearby sentry tower. He turned around and saw bright
flashes shaped like petals. The flashes appeared to be coming out the muzzle of a
gun. Alexander then fired several shots towards the flashes of light. He then heard
whistling sounds coming from the tower. Approaching, he continued firing. He then
broke the window in the sentry room and reported to his commander that he was
under “attack”. The he started moving along a wall, still firing towards the flashes.
Unexpectedly he lost consciousness, but even in that state he experienced “strange
visions”. When he came back to his senses he was languid and felt heaviness on the
back of his head. The magazine of his “Kalashnikov” automatic gun was empty
(about 30 bullets). He inserted a new one and approached the sentry room, noticing
several dents on the walls and then began moving to a different direction. He then
heard a strange sound coming from the nearby hippodrome and again started
shooting in response. At this point he distinctly saw a strange shadowy entity near
the fence, which was moving. Meanwhile all the other guards were positioned in a
