REPORT STRANGE OBJECT OVER TANGIER AND FES -- Fes, Le Courrier du Maroc,
22 Sep 52

~~REFER TO SE: 16 JUL 52 - FR. MOROCC - RABAT~~

After holding its course for about 12 seconds, the disk, which looked like a brightly illuminated metal object, suddenly emitted two great streaks of flames and disappeared.

The object was variously described as an orange-colored ball of fire, an arrow, …
