Footage allegedly recorded at the time of the sighting has since managed to make its way on to YouTube.
Falling firmly in to the ‘too good to be true’ category, the dubious recording shows a brightly lit craft hovering over some houses before entering a ‘portal’ in the sky and disappearing.
It’s unclear who created the footage or how it was done, however it is understood to have originally emerged from a source in Yakutia (Republic of Sakha), the largest region of Russia.
Despite being an obvious hoax, one thing’s for sure – it certainly looks impressive.
