A very long straight line of lights was photographed over Kadier-en-Kier.

An eyewitness writes:

A very long straight line that moved quickly forward and suddenly disappeared again. A photo of Zoya, which is also a two-second moving photo.

The most likely explanation according to ufomeldpunt.nl - Starlink Satellites:

These are SpaceX's Starlink satellites, which can be seen very regularly over the NL.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Satellite

Ordinary satellites, which often look like single, not very bright luminous dots moving smoothly in the night sky, are quite often mistaken for UFOs. After the Starlink satellites (near-Earth satellite systems developed by SpaceX, in order to create a cheap and high-performance satellite Internet communication channel and technical transmitters for receiving and transmitting signals from earth and orbit) were launched, it became possible to observe groups of satellites (up to 60 pieces) flying one after another.
