Laos

These are excerpts from a formerly confidential report by the Central Intelligence Agency in November 1979. The report details observed gas attacks by unknown pilots, that were launched in Laos against the H'Mong tribe members.

'The poison gas was delivered by rockets fired from a single-engined, propeller-driven reconnaissance type aircraft.'

'The airplanes made one pass before returning to fire the poison gas rockets if the area was open or familiar to the pilots, but on some attacks the aircraft made four or five passes before firing the gasrockets. [....] For the first attack, the planes flew at an altitude of about one thousand meters, but later attacks were launched from altitudes of about three thousand meters.'

'All attacks took place during clear weather'

It is worth reading and re-reading these sentences. They describe in part what has been observing in the sky and on apps since 2020. Though today there are no rockets with coloured gases. Instead there are silent whisps between one thousand and three thousands metres altitude.

The gas agents dispersed from the rockets in Laos were coloured red and yellow. Red was reported to give the victim severe symptoms, but the effects from either gas were similar, as if this was an experiment to establish a suitable dosage.

The report goes on to detail the timing of four attacks, spaced out over a two week period. The attacks only took place in clear, hot weather and were carried out by three small aircraft. The gas from the attacks seemed to spread 1.5 kilometers radius.

Symptoms included severe coughing, burning of the throat and 'tingling' nose, weeping eyes, difficulty seeing, a crushing sensation and sharp pains in the chest, some coughing up of blood and a racing heart beat. Teeth were also affected, some had difficulty hearing and the whites of the eyes sometimes turned yellow. The impact of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea from the attacks took the lives of four or five children according to the report

This attack was suspected to have been carried out by the Communist Vietnamese People's Army, who the H'Mong were resisting. Attacks were carried out both by aircraft and helicopter. Refugees flooded in to camps in Thailand telling the same stories, and carrying samples of the substances for testing. In 1981 the then US Secretary of State Alexander Haig accused the Soviet Union of supplying client regimes in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia with mycotoxins, which created 'Yellow Rain'. The Soviet Union countered with a claim that the yellow rain had been caused by bee feces.
