🇧🇷 Fuerza Aérea (Operação Prato)
In August 1996, the city of Varginha in Minas Gerais, Brazil, became the center of a UFO case that shocked the world. Three teenagers reported seeing a strange creature, described as having slimy skin, red eyes, long arms, and large feet. The girls, deeply shaken, recounted the encounter to UFO researchers, who began investigating the alleged capture of the being by Brazilian military personnel. The story grew more complex when it was revealed that hospitals and the fire department were involved, although they officially denied any participation. Military witnesses claimed to have seen suspicious movements, army trucks, and even a secret operation at the Humanitas Hospital. Despite contradictions and the suppression of information by authorities, researchers insisted that something unusual had occurred. The Varginha case not only caused controversy but also highlighted the existence of a UFO information cover-up in Brazil.
