Initial data
I am in a small town where sugar cane is grown and cultivated, known as the "Triangle" in the south-eastern part of Zimbabwe.
Last night, around 20: 45 on Monday evening, we saw a flash, as bright as a camera flash. the light covered the entire territory, possibly with a radius of 50 km. The light exceeded the full moon, as well as the fluorescent lighting that is installed in the village. It flashed for about 6 seconds and disappeared.
We looked around, but we didn't see anything, after a few seconds we suddenly saw a flash and a fireball flying from the sky like a falling comet, but the fireball was flying at the speed of lightning in a westerly direction.
The flash and the fireball disappeared, and after a few seconds we heard a deafening sound, similar to a slight shaking of the earth. That's it!
I used to suspect that it was a big plane that was falling, but then the plane would not have made such a light and strong noise! The object left a trail of orange flames before it disappeared.
The witness is an accountant.
