Following the Glasnost agreement of the 1980s coupled with the collapse of the Soviet Union, a surge of UFO reports would enter the wider public domain, some of which are as intriguing as they are startling. One particular account alleges that a UFO crashed in the Shaitan Mazar (which translates as Grave of the Devil), located in the Tien Shan Mountains in Kyrgyzstan near the Chinese border.

My books on the subject have been now translated into 6 languages.
