Three Mysterious Missile-Like Objects Found in Indonesian Waters Spark Public Concern

A series of unsettling discoveries in Indonesian waters has sparked public concern and official investigations. Over the past few days, fishermen have stumbled upon three distinct objects, some bearing a striking resemblance to missiles, in separate locations across the archipelago.

“

We don’t know where the object came from, but we immediately reported it to the authorities.

In Kangean Island, East Java, a fisherman found a yellow, missile-like object washed ashore on April 20. Marked with the code "Aug-05," the object's origin and purpose remain unknown, prompting local authorities to secure and examine it. Residents expressed fears that the object could be explosive, leading to cautious handling and calls for public vigilance.

The object has been secured and is currently being examined by the relevant authorities.

Further complicating the mystery, debris resembling a rocket or aircraft outer shell, featuring a yellow star on a red background—similar to China's flag—was found floating in the Riau Islands. This discovery, captured in widely circulated footage, has fueled speculation about its origin. Authorities are investigating, urging the public to report any similar findings without touching them.

We urge residents to remain calm but vigilant, and to avoid touching or moving any suspicious objects found at sea or along the shoreline and to immediately report such findings to authorities.

Another missile-like object was discovered by a fisherman in South Sulawesi. These recurring finds in Indonesian waters underscore a growing unease and highlight the need for swift and transparent investigations by the authorities to ascertain the nature and origin of these mysterious objects and reassure the public.

We are still examining it. Please give us time.
