Driving north on N6 on outskirts of Meknes, Morocco.

Noticed a very bright yellow object West of Meknes, Morocco towards the direction of Kenitra by line of sight. Object was stationary and did not appear to move. Very aware of how planets and planes appear in the evening. This did not match to either as the size and luminosity of the object did not fit either profile that I have seen in my 50+ years. Even my wife thought it was strange and we both watched it for about 3 minutes while it was in view as we were driving on the National Highway.

NUFORC Note:

On March 7, 2025, at 7:30 PM in Meknes, Morocco, the bright object observed at approximately 45 degrees elevation in the western sky was possibly the planet Jupiter. At that time, Jupiter was prominently visible in the evening sky, shining near the Pleiades and Hyades star cluster

We've seen an object in the sky, stationary for a whole minute, silvery very bright, with no apparent mean of propulsion, unusual shape

As we were in the car moving inside the city as we turned I noticed an very bright large stationary object in the clear blue sky. It occupied a portion in my visual field that was bigger than the sun's (I would say it's relative size in my visual field was 2 to 3 times that of the sun, which was in an other direction)

It was also almost as bright as the sun, though we could stare at it without being blinded. I looked around and no one seemed to really pay attention to it, my sister was still on the phone for the first 30 seconds of the sighting but when she finished I told her "look, this is an Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon" she acknowledged it but did not seem to be impressed, surprised or even paid more attention to it (she is a UFO/UAP skeptic).

We were coming from "Avenue Guemassa" which is a large avenue with a cleared line of sight, and I was able to keep looking at it, it was not apparently moving, but when we arrived at the end of the avenue, as we entered the old city via "Bab Ighli" street, the sight was obstructed by archways and the walls surrounding the street, and I could not see it for 20~30 seconds and when the view was clear again, it was gone.

The object looked mainly spherical but with no clearly defined edges, it was not a really geometrical shape and it also had some sort a handle on top of it (I would say if I wanted to compare it to a similar object, that it sort of had the shape of a curling stone or a kettle). (attachement: I've tried to draw what it looked like in the sky as best as I could but I'm not much of an artist…)

I did not try to take a picture of it as I thought that the pictures I would take would not show anything clear, and the 5 or 10 seconds it would take me to draw my phone from my pocket and open the camera app, it would have been gone so I preferred to observe it for as long as I could.

I'm not 100% sure it was actually a solid silvery object as it was very shine, almost like a very big star, but I can almost definitely rule out the case of an asteroid or an burning object entering the atmosphere, with that size, I pretty sure there would be no more Marrakesh if that thing was an asteroid falling nearby.

Observed flashing lights of white, yellow, and red on a mountain in Oujda, Morocco.

I observed multiple flashing lights of varying colors (white, yellow, and red) on a mountain in Oujda, Morocco. The lights appeared intermittently, switching on and off from different locations with varying intensities. They moved and displayed intricate patterns, sometimes appearing as one, two, three, or four lights, fading in sequence and repeating this action. The lights seemed to be controlled, with their size and intensity changing, sometimes appearing larger or smaller. The sighting lasted over three hours and occurred over multiple nights. From my rooftop vantage point overlooking the city, the lights were clearly visible and distinct against the mountain backdrop. There were no notable weather conditions that could explain the phenomenon. As an observer with a keen interest in astronomy and local geography, I found the behavior and patterns of the lights highly unusual and intriguing.

We were in the garden and suddenly everything around became quiet . We looked in the sky and there was this giant sphere going silently, slowly from south to north. The giant sphere was flying perfectly horizontal. It looked like nothing we have ever seen before. I’ve seen plenty of comets but that wasn’t it , it wasn’t falling from the sky . At the start of the sighting, 3 small lights surrounded the UFO like a formation. 2 of them disappeared after a few seconds, then the last one . After 2 minutes going straight, the object just disappeared. There were absolutely no noises and I’m definitely sure it was flying and not falling.

Video was taken 1-2 minutes after first sighting.

Black cigar shaped object spotted over Morocco

This incident happened an afternoon during the summer of 2014.

I was playing soccer at a holiday residence near the town of M'Diq, in northern Morocco. While I was having a quick break, I spotted a black spot about 10 nautical miles away from my position, at an altitude of approx. 5000 feet and below the horizon. I was an aviation enthusiast at the time and it was clear to me that it wasn't a common aircraft. I also knew that the airspace where I spotted the object was restricted due to the King's property below it (T-VFR AREA E) and no aircraft were allowed to fly through it (except the Moroccan Air Force I believe).

While I was trying to make myself believe what my eyes were registering, a bunch of guys spotted it as well, confirming that it wasn't just my imagination. The black cigar-shaped object moved steadily on an eastbound direction towards the Mediterranean Sea and with no signs of acceleration or abrupt movement disappeared. It felt like a very well done fade out filming transition. Nobody said nothing and we kept playing soccer like it never happened.

I'm currently a commercial pilot and I can, even more, confirm than the shape and directional movement of the craft was something that I have never seen. Weirdly enough I tend to forget this incident. I remember times where the UFO subject popped up on conversations and I couldn't remember nor share the incident. It feels like my brain tries to erase and hide this incident as if it was a traumatic experience...

Another thing that I wanted to add is that that area of Morocco, between the cities of Tangier, Tetouan, and Ceuta is known for UAPs sightings. Since I was a kid I heard my elders sharing stories of 'stars moving rapidly' or 'stars dividing into little stars' and steady floating lights at night. I was always very skeptical and I always thought that they may have spotted military aircraft from the nearby USAF and RAF bases of Rota and Gibraltar, but after my own experience, my perception changed radically.

As I mentioned, I'm very skeptical and the UFO matter, even with my experience, is still something that I find a hard time to believe and support. I remember judging colleagues at my air operation sharing their sightings experiences thinking that they are crazy, and that might be the reason why my brain just wants to eliminate that memory, to probably protect me from judgment and to be seen as a crazy person. I feel weird/scared to write this down and share it but I want to help people that believe and fight for the truth about this matter. Good luck

Looking off balcony at night sky curious because of what I had witnessed in recent days. Noticed small streak of light like falling star followed by object that looked like a star began slowly moving accross sky. It was as if a star was at a stand still and then slowly started propelling off into the horizon. I was truly startled by this sight which also occured during Ramadan in this islamic country. I started asking the locals I was with if they knew what I may have seen, the only thing they could come up with was the possiblity that it was related to the religious time we were in.

standing on roof of apartment, clear sunny day. Observed white object wobbeling accross sky, at first thought it was a bird and then became certain it wasnt because of strange movement, almost appeared like a plastic grocery bag just floating accross sky. Then noticed another similar object possibly the same one, hard to tell because of sun glare slowly floated down towards me and then floated back up to sky while I watched until it was out of sight. moments later saw shiny metallic object rapidly falling from sky over city(able to see entire medieval city of Fes from rooftop. Next noticed white thing floating high in sky and then what looked like flat bottom of large object high in sky that vanished soon after I noticed it. This is my honest to God experience of seeing something I cant quite figure out and have never seen in America. It occured during Ramadan in this Islamic country which makes me wonder if it was something spiritual?

One winter night, my Mom and I saw 3 oval-like ships moving in a strange way in the sky, for less than a minute.

It was 3 years ago but I stil remember it clearly. I was with my Mom on the terasse of our house, to watch the starts as we usually do in winter time -- Orion is my favorite constellation. I'm talking about this experience here for the first time officially. I did not know such a thing as your center existed before today, when I accidentally ended on your page. Well, so I was saying that I went out to watch the starts with my Mom, when -after 20 minutes of observing the sky- we both saw at the same time a sort of light, more intense than this of the stars, but not very neatly. My Mom asked me if I could have an idea on what it could be, but I couldn't answer, as I was realizing that this light we had just seen seemed to be getting closer and to move in a strange way, like no other planes or helicopters do -- and I know what I'm talking about, as I used to live next to an airport. My Mom's eyes and mine were stuck on the light, which gradually became a sort of oval-like ship. We also quickly realized that it was shortly followed by 2 others, smaller, but with the same radiance and the same abnormal movement. The whole phenomenon lasted for less than a minute, however I will never forget it. I couldn' believe it, but I had my Mom next who coul tell me that it really happened. We often talk about this speial night together, but only when we are the 2 of us - even my Dad don't want to hear about it. I hope I have found with you someone who will not judge so abruptly.

PS: I am sorry, my English is far from being fluent, but I hope you'll not have a hard time to understand the whole event.

Location: Chechauoene (Morocco), , Morocco

Shape: Changing


Clearly saw a flying boomarang-shaped object that made no noise and had no running lights in Morocco.

I was backpacking in Europe and Africa in 1998 and met two other backpackers at a hotel in a town in Morocco. I was 23, male, American; others were early 20's Scottish and Canadian, both male. Other witnesses had been smoking hash, I was completely sober. We were on the roof of the hotel watching a meteor shower. There was a (wedding?) party a few blocks away from us with big flood lights that were periodically blowing out all the lights in our section of the town, and there were few street lights. While I/we were looking up, the object flew directly over us, and I watched it travel from almost directly over us where I first noticed it to the horizon. With no reference objects in the sky I can only guess at the size and speed. If I held my hand above me at arm's length my thumbnail would have almost covered it. It took 5-6 seconds to travel about 60 degrees across my field of vision. It seemed much lower than the stars, and I could clearly see the edges, so my guess is it was between the size of a single prop plane and an airliner, flying at about 10,000 feet (higher than a prop plane but much lower than an airliner). The shape was perfectly geometric: draw a circle, cut it in half, then remove two half circles with the "corners" touching from the straight line where the original cut was made and that would be the exact shape. The result if you were drawing it should be something like a rounded boomarang with a point comming out of the back. It made no noise at all, and had no running lights. It appeared to have a dull orange glow; the closest thing I can compare the color/glow to is the coil of an electric stove when the coil is just starting to heat up. I cannot say if the glow was coming from the object or was a reflection from the lights from the party.

In any case, it was not very bright and since it made no noise, I do not think I would have seen it if I had not already been looking up.

I discussed the sighting with the other witness from Scotland and it was evident he saw what I did; the witness from Canada said he was "not sure what he saw" and would not discuss it. It didn't really have a "haze or aura around the object" so I didn't check that box, the light was more like "on" the object and didn't extend from it.

If someone wants a verbal description or clarification, or can tell me what it was, I do not mind being contacted by phone or email.

Northern Africa 1979 3 objects seen in the sky

I was standing duty as a Marine in Northern Africa back in 1979 and this will be the first time I have actually ever spoke of that incident. It was roughly 2AM and I was on patrol when I noticed a light in the sky which I thought was a falling star. As I stood there watching the object it turned in 3 objects moving in odd patterns at speeds that were not possible at that period of time. I stood there and watched in amazement as the the objects seperated and moved to different locations in the sky. the objects then formed what appeared to be a formation pattern then seperated again and flew unconventional patterns for approximately 2 minutes similar to someone moving a flash light around a dark room at simi rapid formations. Then as they just dissapeared in formation. This base was a high security communications station with several 360 foot towers within a five mile perimeter.

I was berated by your answering service for waiting over a quarter of a century to file a report, but who in the hell do you contact in Tangier, Morocco in 1976?

I was west of Tangier,Morocco. Additional witnesses were my wife ((name deleted)), tour guide ((name deleted)), and a taxi driver. The day was sunny and the sky was clear of clouds. The landscape was arid, barren and obscure of any vegetation. I could view approximately 25-30 miles of horizen.

The taxi was directly west of Tangier moving in an easterly direction. I observed a bright, stationary light in the sky in the direction of the city. The light appeared as a large conventional aircraft with running lights on and that would be flying directly towards you. I asked the tour guide "where is the airport?" He indicated to the right and south of our position. I noticed that the light did not change in intensity or altitude as a descending/ascending plane would have.

After observing the bright light for about one minute, I observed three silver disc move out from the light and stop. They remained stationary for approximately 20-30 seconds before they maneuvered slightly outward and upward from the light. They moved very rapidly, almost in formation, and became stationary. Two additional sets of three silver disc moved out from the light and jockeyed around in different positions. They moved rapidly to positions and became stationary, other than an occasional adjustment by singular discs but basically remained in sets of three disc per formation, comprising a total of nine disc.

I approximated the size of the craft to be 30-35 feet in length and 6-8 feet high. Their movements were basically smooth and in formation. The first set of three disc moved slightly in their formation and I had the perception that they were playing or were ready for a "drag race" After observing the entire formation of ten craft for approximately one minute, the first set of three disc took off at a very hight rate of speed towards the south. They had covered approximately one-third of the 20-25 mile horizon, when the two other sets of three took off. Nothing appeared to be any type of mirror reflections of light.

All three sets of disc after taking-off were only visible for approximately 4 seconds before they moved out of my range of view to the south. As soon as I lost sight of the flying disc, I looked back to the area of the lighted craft, expecting to see the light or a dark silouette like a plane would appear with its running lights off. Nothing was visible. The craft was gone.

I did not have a video camera, or camera. Of course, this type of photo or video would be valid proof of aircraft technology far beyond public comprehension. I would be a millionaire and very famous individual had I possessed cameras that day. The vehicles traveled in excess of several thousands of miles per hour.

I am a retired Navy Commander and have been in association with current technology that the military openly possessed. These vehiles surpassed the military SR 71, F-16, stealth bomber, Aurora or any other fathomable aircraft that we could imagine. The incident I observed in November 1976 might also correlate to the contact that the Iranian military pilot had in September 1976 in which a spherical disc came out of a light and circled the Iranian pilot prior to rapidly disappearing.

I heard that additional sightings may have occurred in Portugal and England during the fall of 1976. I have nevery observed any military aircraft equal to the speed and maneuverability of what I saw that day. I did relate this story to several military colleagues at my duty station in Rota, Spain but was not prompted to file any official report to any higher authority.

UFO sighted by four people in Sidi Yahia, Morocco, North Africa

Dear Sirs: While stationed in Sidi Yahia Morocco, my wife and I were asked to go to the Receiver Site to witness a UFO that had partially exploded and then fl flew back up again. We could not get past the Marine Sentries although they verified what had happened. We were originally notified by phone by by a CT from the transmitter site.

Later that night when the CT got off duty he came to our house with his wife (who worked for the Captain of the base) and had us come out and witness witness the UFO hovering silently up in the air. It was a gray disc shape with red and green lights on the bottom and was completely silent. Could not s see the top of it as it was overhead. It was hard to judge the size but the night was sparkling clear that far out in the desert. It was not a weather balloon as it was too big and did not move but hovered silently. I did not stay up to witness it leaving as my wife and I both had to report to work early in the morning and we were conscientious workers and did not drink or smoke.

This is an authentic report from a military e-9 (30 years service) and his wife who worked for the U.S. Government.

My wife went to work at Supply the next morning and when she reported it, they all laughed at her.

The E-8 or E-9 who worked at the Transmitter site was demoted the next day to Barracks Master at Arms.

What does this tell us. Were they flying a captured UFO in that remote area or was it from outer space and our government knows about it.

Quite a mystery that I will never solve in my lifetime.

This adds to someone else's report. A CPO took 35mm photos of disk from his quarters on post. Navy Investigative Service agent requested film, gave a receipt, the CPO never saw his film afterwards. Personally witnessed disks over city of Kenitra (25 mi west of Sidi Yahia) on numerous nights during summer of 1968.

Others reported them, NIS stopped taking written statements.

Repairman on my section saw disk from loading dock at communications station and was warned by watch officer not to report it.
