Location:

Лимассол

Cyprus

I was walking to my house when I noticed a blue-and-white dimly lit round object hovering over the mountains to the northwest of the city of Limassol. I stopped and looked at it when I realized that the object was slowly moving back and forth, slowly moving up ...

I thought it might be a balloon, but when I continued to observe it as it moved upwards, the object was still lit… After about 5 minutes of observation, the object gained enough height to become similar to a star or satellite.

Then it stopped for a few seconds and began to fly rapidly in a south-easterly direction while disappearing ..
