An ex-CIA officer and top forensic neuroimaging scientist has claimed that during his time working with the CIA, hundreds of servicemen suffered brain damage and some even died after encounters with UFOs.

Detroit Professor Christopher Green worked with the CIA since the 1960s and in 2010 he was commissioned to conduct research and to produce a report paper on behalf of a $22 million top secret defense program set up to monitor UFOs.

Green was assigned to study and record incidents which resulted in individual’s suffering injuries after close encounters with unidentified crafts.

In an exclusive interview with the Daily Mail, Green stated that “hundreds of patients” had sustained serious brain injuries and conditions after encountering mysterious unidentified crafts, and around one in ten died within seven years.

Although some of the injuries closely resembled ‘Havana Syndrome’ which government intelligence thinks might be caused by enemy attacks on the USA using forms of radiation, Green’s research notes that the some of the injuries in question pre-date the spate of injuries at the Cuban embassy which gave the condition its name in 2016 by decades.

An unclassified version of Green’s paper is available to read online. Entitled ‘Clinical Medical Acute & Subacute Field Effects on Human Dermal & Neurological Tissues’, some of the related symptoms include Multiple Sclerosis-like nerve damage, brain damage and burns in patients all of whom had experienced ‘CE-III-IV events’, or ‘Close Encounters of the Third and Fourth Kind’.
