Afghanistan UFO files (disclosure documents) seem not to exist. But a wave of sightings in 1980-81 got the U.S. Department of State interested in the matter, and documents from there have been declassified under Freedom of Information legislation.
Disclosure documents
On February 4, 1981, a Mr. Archard reported to the American Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan, about close encounters in Afghanistan. He addressed the matter of the “UFOs” seen by several adventurers as secret devices or technologies of the former Soviet Union. It began in 1980 and continued to concern U.S. authorities into 1981.
The locations of the sightings have been Ghazni, August 1980, Nuristan, September 1980, and Khost, January 1981. The sightings are described as bright lights illuminating large portions of, or as much as one quarter of the Afghan sky (source 1).
