Extraordinary claims have resurfaced regarding an incident in which over 20 Russian soldiers were reportedly "turned to stone" by an extraterrestrial weapon.

Popular podcast host Joe Rogan recently shared details from a 250-page report, allegedly written by the CIA, shedding light on the incident. The original reports, collected by KGB agents in the late 1980s, were later covered by Ukrainian media and documented in a classified intelligence file in 1993.

According to Rogan, the report suggests that a saucer-shaped spacecraft flew low above a Russian army unit during routine training exercises.

Five humanoid creatures, short in stature with large heads and black eyes, emerged from the wreckage, he said.
