Documents / FOIA release
This unclassified CIA (FBIS) record summarizes a Johannesburg Afrikaans-language television newscast broadcast on 20 July 1990. Most items cover South African politics, including the meeting between State President F.W. de Klerk and Nelson Mandela at the Union Buildings, along with economic news, strikes, refugees and foreign events. One two-minute item reported strange land imprints found in the south of England that were believed to have been caused by UFOs. The record contains no further detail on that item.
