FLYING SAUCER OVER MEKNES, MOROCCO—Algiers, Écho D'Alger, 11 Jun 52

Two witnesses reported a flying saucer appearing above Meknes at 1300 hours on 7 June 1952. One or them said that he saw a bright spot in the sky moving at lightning speed. He was able to compare its speed with that of some T-33 planes flying near the Meknes base, for they seemed very slow by comparison, The unknown apparatus emitted a white trail of smoke and made no sound. It drew near, described a parabola in the sky, stopped and then disappeared toward Ifrane in the South.
