Perhaps it was the hopes and dreams of those oppressed souls in Myanmar praying for an end to the violence and military rule.

A "mysterious" object in the sky IS a UFO. 

 

mysterious means, don't know what it is - unidentified. 

 

If it was a spaceship then that wouldn't be a UFO either.

And here I thought it was the moon ... maybe they couldn't tell seeing it thru the smog haze.

 

Maybe if they peek up in the sky today, they'll see it better, as it sounds like we might get a spot of rain today.   Little rumbling outside now.

It's Unidentified, it's Flying & it's an Object.

Until positively identified, it's a UFO by definition.

A "travel bubble" by any chance????

 

(CCSA) has given the greenlight to an agreement on an air “travel bubble” scheme between Thailand and India
