I jumped on to an existing report
https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33393
Looks like exactly the same thing. Found a couple of reports marked as
duplicate

Hi :)
Good work! Getting 1 cause out of the way would be great. Sounds likely to be
the commonest cause of the problem for this team. Have you already posted a
bug-report?

Tom :)

I am now able to cause it to happen every time in the latest version of
LO (so I found one magic combination). This magic combination does not
cause a problem in OOo. Certainly there may be more than one cause
and/or trigger. I have some hope that if we find one cause and trace
what it does, it may provide incite into other combinations (or even
prevent the other combinations from causing a problem).
Spent a few hours today making sure that I can reproduce the problem. I
also spent time poking around the code.
I have seen little to no evidence that anyone is actively pursuing this
particular bug (which means almost nothing), but I do see that it is
assigned to someone.
For the trigger that I found, it occurs when auto-save writes stuff out,
but it does NOT occur if I write the file myself. I have a really long
shot crazy notion or two, but I know so little about the internals that
I expect that I am dead wrong.

I suspect there are a dozen or so highly specific combinations of factors that
cause the bug. In which case it would be impossible to isolate the different
sets from each other if there was any overlap.
Lets say that B=3 causes the bug but only when A is set to 3 or when C is set
to 5 but if D=8 when A=3 then the problem doesn't happen unless .... Add in
that we don't know whether A is the OS in use or the one previously used with
the file, or a version of java or phase of the moon or something to do with
chicken bones. Hmm, we can probably discount those last 2. If devs haven't
been able to solve it in several years then maybe the problem needs to be
approached differently or maybe it will become obvious during code-clean-up or
just magically vanish.

You've been lucky. Several of us encountered the problem with a few
files when using LO 3.4; I can't recall whether it occured with 3.3,
but I think so. My suspicion is that there is something weird in some
of our files ... some of which originated in OOo1.x, OOo2.x, or even
MSWord ... and that weird something triggers the observed behaviour,
sometimes, for some people, under who knows what conditions. Of
course, that's just speculation.

I had not seen this behavior in a very very long time. I was under the
impression that the issue had been fixed a very very long time ago. I have
not had good luck with LO lately. Want to search outstanding bugs and such,
but the web site appears to be not responding. It was a problem last night
as well.
Hmm, well, I was able to find a bug that sounds about right...

Dropped a bunch of time filing bugs and such.
Time to eat some dinner then think about sleep. Will continue my pursuit
later.

Yes, we had this under 3.4.x too. Apparently it has been a problem since
about OOo 2.1 or something. People have been trying to keep a back-up copy
of images in a separate zip-file alongside the guides somewhere just in case
it happens. The zip-files have only been done for a few guides tho.

I was editing a simple document for about 30 minutes and then some of the
figures started to disappear with an error message stating that the graphic
could not be read. I saved the file (under a new name) and reopened. Those
graphics still are not there. Opened the original and it is still there.
Is anyone else using LO 3.5? If yes, have any of you seen this? If not,
beware!
I am using 64-bit Fedora 16 and I downloaded this from the web site. Guess
I need to file a bug report. I also guess that I need to restart the editing
process using something other than LO 3.5.
