Insufficient Data

Summary

During the night of August 25 to 26, 1956, witnesses reported objects over the port of Tangier, Morocco. The information came from a newspaper rather than a direct witness report. The sighting lasted about ten seconds.

The article said radiant flying discs were seen over the port. After about ten seconds of floating motionless in the air, the objects disappeared. Many people said they witnessed the event.

The number of objects and the course were not known, and the card gives no final evaluation in the available text.
