English teacher A.I. Opelat and two of his colleagues, doctor Vasiliy Ksenofontovich Nazarenko and Novitskiy school director, Alexander Tarasovich were returning from a hunting expedition on a clear and calm day with the sun shining brightly on a pale blue sky. Several local farmers were working on a nearby collective farm (kolhoz), pasturing a field. The three men were walking to the nearby bus stop in the village of Shulgovka, located north of the Dneprodzerzhinsk water reservoir. Suddenly they heard a strange humming sound similar to that of approaching flock of seagulls or ducks, which seemed to increase in intensity. The men turned around and saw an object in the sky, bright red in color, moving swiftly towards them at an altitude of about 100-150m. Gradually loosing altitude, the "sky craft" landed on the asphalt road approximately 50 steps ahead of the witnesses. Amazed they froze in place momentarily and then began studying the unusual landed object. Other people were running to the scene from the direction of the village, and soon a large crowd, including children gathered around, even the shepherds in the pasture had abandoned the cattle. The witness noted that the strange uninvited craft had landed on 4 landing props, each one about 1m long. The object had an even oval-shape about 7-8m long and about 3m wide. It had windows or portholes fitted into the hull on the sides, one porthole in the front, one in the rear and 3 on the right and left side each. On both sides the object had wedge-shaped protrusions similar to small wings, each about 2 meters long. A black 4-pronged emblem was visible on the side of the craft, which the witnesses described as similar to "The Star of David". As the witnesses watched the object, 4 humanoid entities exited out of it. All four were dressed in bright-white shiny clothing, which emitted a silvery glitter, and closed helmets on their heads. All of them were about 2m in height, athletic in built, with broad shoulders. They had braided-like plates on their elbows and knees, like armor on medieval knights. One of the humanoids held a small bright red-globe or sphere in his hands about 15-20centimeters in diameter. The sphere was emitting distinct sounds similar to a "croaking frog". (!). The second entity carried a one-meter long rod or bar of the same bright red color. Local villagers circled the landing site from all sides, staring at the alien visitors totally speechless, until one of the humanoids began waving the red baton-like object towards the stunned witnesses as if inviting the people towards the craft. But the crowd became terrified and scattered in all directions. The three main witnesses also followed suit, frightened by reports of abductions and radiation sickness to other witnesses. When they had run a proper distance away they stopped and watched the aliens entering the spacecraft which then soundlessly and slowly began lifting from the ground. The all four landing props went back into the object when it was at an altitude of about 20-25m, it then moved slowly upwards and then to the southeast vanishing quickly into the distance.
