That's the word from CIA sources who have access to dozens of Soviet spy files that have surfaced in the United States since former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev dismantled the country's super-secret KGB intelligence agency after the collapse of communism in 1991.
The UFO file reportedly contains 250 pages of eyewitness testimony from two soldiers who mysteriously survived the extraterrestrial attack. A dramatic photo of the crash site, along with sketches of the space aliens themselves, round out the report, which one CIA source called "the most-chilling portrait of extraterrestrial revenge on record."
"This single file has done more to open our eyes to alien intentions and alien might than anything else in the history of UFOs," said one of two CIA insiders who leaked portions of the secret KGB file to trusted reporters here.
"They possess weapons and technologies that are superior to anything we have here on Earth.
"And this incident shows that when pushed into a corner, extraterrestrials will use everything at their disposal to protect themselves."
According to the KGB file, Soviet soldiers on routine maneuvers spotted the saucer-shaped starship flying at low altitude at 8:35 a.m. on Oct. 13, 1987.
For reasons that remain unclear, soldiers disabled the UFO with shoulder-fired, surface-to-air missiles, causing it to crash 25 yards east of the patrol's position.
The UFO slammed to the ground with an impact that literally cracked open the hull. And even though the troops kept their distance, they were reportedly taken "totally off guard" when five tiny humanoids with "large heads, large black eyes and segmented snouts" emerged from the wreckage.
"The unnamed soldiers who survived the alien attack said the creatures trotted clear of the wreckage, huddled briefly, and then merged into 'a single, ball-shaped entity,' " said the CIA source.
"It's hard to grasp what occurred next, but the soldiers said the entity began to squeal and hum before it turned bright white. A split-second later the ball doubled in size and exploded into 'a blinding burst of splintered light.'
"Soviet investigators were never able to determine the why or how of it. But when the incident was over, the space aliens were gone, 23 Russian soldiers had turned to stone - and the two survivors were left scratching their heads, wondering why the explosion of light had absolutely no effect on them."
The KGB report said that the UFO wreckage and "stone soldiers" were taken to a research facility near Moscow for study.
