UFO SEEN BY HUNDREDS ON A BEACH IN TURKEY
Three weeks before the encounter on Malta, on March 11, 1996, a
dull yellow UFO appeared in the night sky near the port city of Izmir,
on the west coast of Turkey. The UFO was seen by a handful of
Turkish fishermen, who described it as "a curious bright light in the sky."
The night of March 12, the UFO flew over downtown Izmir. This
encounter was reported in the Istanbul and Ankara newspapers.
By sundown on March 14, the beaches of Izmir were crowded with
several hundred spectators. They did not go home disappointed. The
UFO flew in from the Aegean Sea around 10 p.m. and performed
several aerial maneuvers. A Turkish photojournalist shot seven still
photos of the object, which were printed in the next day's newspapers.
Witnesses described the UFO over Izmir as "a yellow-colored
ellipsoid light in the sky." As the yellow light "hovered motionless,"
a smaller light was seen "moving in and out of the clouds." They
described "the big one" as shaped "like the saucer on the U.S.S.
Enterprise" and said it "grew brighter as the smaller one merged with
it." The UFO then retreated westward, back into the Aegean skies.
Note: "Star Trek-The Next Generation" is one of the Top Ten TV
shows in Turkey. In fact, the Ankara ST fan club claims that Worf
is half-Klingon and half-Turkish!
