Documents / FOIA release
This 11 June 1993 JPRS translation, released by the Central Intelligence Agency, covers reader letters that the Moscow newspaper Rossiyskiye Vesti printed for its Operation Radiation. That campaign gathered public reports of radioactive contamination. The letters cover harm from nuclear weapons production in the Urals and a uranium deposit near the Karintorf settlement. They also warn about nuclear power plants along the Volga. One letter looks at rumors of an accident at Tomsk-7 that were traced to mediums, clairvoyants and claimed telepathic contact with aliens. It also mentions UFO researchers who forecast an accident at the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant.

## Concatenated JPRS Reports, 1993 ## Document 19 of 19 Page 4 city of Pavlodar, who cited "'extraterrestrial sources,' prophesied a grandiose explosion in Tomsk (10 Chernobyls!). 18. The date of the impending catastrophe was invariably set in April 1990, although the date of the Tomsk explosion was predicted in Novosibirsk as April 1993. Careful research on the sources of the rumors, which we conducted in late 1989 and early 1990, showed them to be completely identical with the sources of the rumors that engulfed the USA on the wave of the 20th cycle of solar activity and were brilliantly described by John Kil [transliteration] in the book "'UFO-Operation Trojan Horse.'" Kil distinguished four sources of rumors in the book-clairvoyants, mediums, spirits and hippies (an altered state of consciousness). We revealed four sources of rumors in Tomsk as well. 19. The first source consisted of clairvoyants and sensitives. The newspapers cited authoritative prophets, particularly the prediction made by Vanga from Bulgaria. When asked about it, Vanga rejected this prediction outright. On the other hand Viktor Vostokov, a doctor of Tibetan medicine, who had predicted the Kishinev earthquake and the 'Nakhimov'' disaster, cautiously noted in a certain interview in response to a question from a correspondent regarding future surprises that he was very troubled by the Tomsk Nuclear Power Plant, that something might possibly go wrong there. 20. Another source was mediums. In August 1989 Viktor L., the chief engineer of the Tomsk Aviation Sports Club, took part in ferrying an An-2 from Kharkov to Tomsk. During the flight, under strange circumstances he had telepathic contact with ''aliens,'' who told him of the catastrophe that was to befall Tomsk-7 on the first of April 1990. 21. Can we make use of such prognostic information obtained by such unusual means? Mankind has wrestled with this since ancient times. It would be sufficient to recall the temples of Asclepius, where every person maintaining a vigil cloaked in skins had the chance to receive a healing prescription during his sleep from Asclepius himself. 22. More up-to-date concepts of prediction are being developed today. Many groups of specialists are working today in our country on extrasensory predictions. Impressive results have been achieved in a number of cases, but on the average, barely one out of every forty registered predictions is confirmed. Nonetheless, scientists are attempting to lift the veil of secrecy from the mechanism of acquiring prophetic information, including for preventing industrial catastrophes. 23.
