What was in the sky
According to satellite orbits, no Starlink train or space station that fits the reports crossed Israel's sky that evening. That still doesn't make it a UFO: we have no data on drones, aircraft, sky lanterns or meteors, so we don't know what it was.
How we know: we checked every Starlink train, space station and bright satellite that crossed Israel's sky that night. If a photo, a video or an official explanation turns up, we'll update this page.
