Chapter 1: A Soldier's Encounter with the Unknown

On February 23, a remarkable sighting occurred in Ukraine’s Donetsk region, where a 400-meter-long unidentified flying object (UFO) was reported hovering at an altitude of over 1.6 kilometers. This area, significantly impacted by Russian military presence, witnessed an extraordinary event.

The sighting took place around 9:02 p.m., approximately 60 kilometers away from the observing soldiers, as the object moved towards the Donetsk Oblast, a stronghold for Russian forces. Vadym, a member of the 406th Battalion, recorded the UFO with his infrared quadcopter (DJI Mavic 3T) while on a reconnaissance mission. Despite facing challenging winds, he managed to elevate his drone to 150 meters, capturing the massive object that remained still in the sky.

In an interview with DailyMail.com, Vadym shared his disbelief, stating that neither he nor his fellow soldiers had encountered anything like it before. Initially, he speculated it might be a new Russian technology but soon considered the possibility of it being a UFO. He noted that the object's temperatures were between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius hotter than anything else tracked by the drone, which eliminated conventional explanations like atmospheric effects, balloons, or known enemy aircraft.

Despite the ongoing conflict, Vadym and his comrades observed the UFO without fear, attributing their calmness to their military training that emphasizes emotional control. After the video went viral, some suggested it might be a natural phenomenon, such as Fata Morgana. However, Vadym firmly believed in the reality of what he had witnessed.

He dismissed the idea of a mirage, pointing to the object's stable form and static position, which lacked the typical shifting qualities of a mirage. The UFO vanished quickly, leaving Vadym and his fellow soldiers in a state of confusion. Despite their attempts to locate it again with another drone, they were unsuccessful. Concerned about operational security, Vadym requested that his last name and further details remain confidential.
