CAFIN:94713 (14 Dee 52)

Karachi press reported that Thursday morning (varying times between
0730 a 000 AM) four objects, believed "flying saucers", sighted and reported by
several persons in Karachi area, Objects were said to look like white metal discs by

some and like translucent circular objects by others. The fours objects reportedly
were flying at high altitude and high speed leaving white smokey trail behind them.
One reporter had different version stating "saucers" were actually aircraft flying at
high altitude. The specific times reported by persons sighting these objects do not

. coincide with any RPAF high altitude operations in Karachi area for either jet or
piston aircraft. :

ATIC DOCUMENT 110802, Ky shi, 12 Dec 52 a YNCLASSIFIED
Four flying saucers looking like white metal discs and leaving a white smoky trail
about 15 yards long flew in parallel formation over Karachi at about 3 a.m. yester~
day at a great height and disappeared in the direction of the Karachi Industrial
Trading Estate. This is the concensus of reports received from observers who tele
phoned or came to report in person. According to these observers the phenomena was
seen by scores of people in the streets. Possible explanation: Local authorities

claim that at about 7:30 a.m. four aircraft at a very high altitude flew over Karachi
leaving vapor trails and offered this as a possible solution for the sighting
