| Remarks | I saw a strange object in the sky over the city of Sulaimani in Kurdistan. It moved very quickly, appearing between 10:20 PM and 10:28 PM. The object vanished in the blink of an eye. It looked like an incredibly bright entity, making no sound at all. Its brightness was striking, and it left behind a faint light tail that disappeared just as swiftly. |
