The Pakistani Army recovered mysterious metal wreckage near the village of Khumbi Thalang in Baluchistan province on Monday, August 21, 2000.
According to Rahil Khan, UFO Roundup correspondent in Pakistan, "On August 21, there was a brief news item that a UFO was found in Baluchistan province, but no official information was given about it."

The wreckage appears to be related to the lone saucer seen over the city of Dera Ghazi Khan at about 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 15, 2000.

(For more information, see UFO Roundup, volume 5, number 34, "UFO fleet seen by thousands in Afghanistan and Pakistan," page 1.)

Dera Ghazi Khan is a large city west of the Sutlej River about 400 kilometers (240 miles) north of Karachi.

On Thursday, August 18, 2000, Pakistani authorities rushed an armored brigade into the Rajanpur district. Tanks and other military vehicles quickly sealed off the Tuman Gorchant tribal area in Rajanpur, where Khumbi Thalang is located.

Several high-ranking Pakistani officers visited the crash site that day, including a lieutenant general, the corps commander from Bahalwapur, located about 160 kilometers (100 miles) east of Dera Ghazi Khan.

"He along with other army officers inspected the 10-foot-long (3-meter-long) piece of metal. The wreckage ws taken away to an unknown place in a closed container."

On August 15, the UFO "was seen flying over Rajanpur, Loralal, Barkhan and Fort Munro. It crashed some 20 kilometers (12 miles) away from PAF Farid (Pakistani Air Force base--J.T.) used by the PAF for exercises."

"According to local tribesmen, when it crashed at Khumbi Thalang, the sky remained illuminated for about one minute."

Rahil Khan reported that the retrieval "has become a top-secret thing and some Pakistani and U.S. agencies are involved."

"Some people saw a formation of choppers from the U.S. Navy fly over the city (of Karachi) from the direction (south) of the Arabian Sea," apparently taking off from an aircraft carrier over the horizon offshore.

During the multiple UFO overflight of August 15, he added, "Some of them also caused sonic booms."

The story quickly went around the Quetta bazaar that these were U.S. Stealth helicopters out hunting for Osama bin-Laden.

(Editor's Comment: Stealth helicopters flying at 1,700 miles per hour? That doesn't seem likely.)

The USA "secret team" that was in Chile in June or July also reportedly turned up in Pakistan.

According to Rahil Khan, a Pakistani army captain "was in Karachi for a three-day furlough" on Saturday, August 19, 2000, "to attend his sister's wedding." The captain "said that they used the expression vo log (Urdu for those people--R.K.) He didn't tell me who he was referring to, but he was very sensitive about it. A large (army) contingent had cordoned off the area." (See the UK newspaper The News for August 27, 2000, "Wreckage of UFO moved to unknown place." Many thanks to Gerry Lovell and Rahil Khan for these reports.)

(Editor's Comment: Both Gerry and I agree that the 10-foot metal wreckage retrieved was probably a cruise missile. Note, however, that only some of the objects seen that night emitted sonic booms. The rest were high-flying and silent. My guess is, somebody fired cruise missiles at the UFOs. The saucer in Dera Ghazi Khan deflected its attacker, and the missile crashed in nearby Khumbi Thalang.)
