It was approx 8K feet traveling at relatively high speed and rotating. I could see the edges in transparent but center is hollow.

It was at the color of the sky and the clouds. It didn't want to be noticed traveling from south east to north west. I was feeding birds and looking for them on the sky and saw by chance. I really pushed my brain not to confuse it with a flying plastic bag but I am sure it wasn't. I live in the 4th floor and the altitude I saw that orb and the way it was traveling dismissed the bag hesitation for me.

Flashing orb hovering and rotating from far distance and moving in a weird way at crazy speed or just standing still in place hovering

I was walking with my girlfriend in streets of downtown Cairo where we approached Abdeen public garden in front of Abdeen Palace Museum and when I just arrived I immediately spotted eye-catching very weird thing in the sky above the palace but far away in the horizon it was either far enough and big or close enough and small from my distance at first it looked like a star but slightly bigger or closer it looked thicker and looked like a flashing orb (white) I noticed something weird when it was like dimming or flashing like there was some sort of weird light activity and then I saw it moving slightly to the right and then to the left then holds and sometimes upwards or downwards then holds and kept moving like that in the fastest weirdest way ever that's what took my attention I thought nothing from this far can move with such speed and this is apparently and definitely not a star and not an airplane many civilians airplanes passed by that thing while I was observing and it looked way different in everything I mean no known aircraft can hover in place like that against gravity and then moves this fast and then holds again and from the way it flashed it looked like it was rotating in place (it was so far I couldn't catch details of the craft body or whatever it was but it felt like rotating as the flashes cuts in a special way) I had no explanation whatsoever it kept doing this crazy stuff for a whole hour or even long before I arrived maybe, I tried to think of everything is it a plane? No, a star? BIG NO, maybe a drone? But no it looked way different and weirdly moving and way too high for a drone and we're not familiar with drones in Egypt it's somehow illegal so we don't casually see drones here and there like that for that long in such a random spot, so what could it be is it a kite WTF NO, I had no explanation whatsoever it's a an unidentified flying object for me and even what made it worse is that I couldn't take a picture or shoot a video as it's somehow illegal to shoot in the streets in cairo especially places where police are there or military buildings and such stuff so I didn't want to run into troubles shooting in the street and stuff but me and my girl seen it clearly and both of us had no explanation I don't know about other witnesses but I don't think they noticed or cared as it's not familiar here to look at the sky and wonder anything everyone is just minding his own shit here and most will not notice and nobody cares so I didn't even open up to anyone about it… anyway the sighting for me took about an hour from when I arrived at 8:35 pm till 9:45 pm when I left and maybe more. I don't wanna assume stuff so I can't tell if what I've seen is something specific but I seek answers I wanna know what was it I've never seen such a thing.

Very weird , first time ever i see something like this!!

It was a very weird phenomena, it was a circle object, with two white spike-like beams changing shape at the bottom of it, and one green light at the centre of the UFO from above ,

the UFO was moving a little bit slower than a plane, then after some time it disappeared,

me and my sister are very sure that it was a UFO,

before this the light was cut off because of an electrical problem, so maybe this might have an effect, i dont really know.

An orange yellow triangle shaped thing flew at a high attitude from northeast to east in 4 to 5 minutes then vanished.

I was going home in a taxi looking at the sky at almost sunset. The sky was faint orange colored and the sky had a few bits of clouds. The taxi was driving me to the north, I was on the left chair looking through the left window. I spotted an orange mixed with yellow so homogenuos that it appeared like fire colored trianglar object. At first, I thought it was a plane or something but it was flying higher than any plane I ever saw that it so high to spot details. It was the shape and size of a broken pencil pin when you hold it as far as you can with your hand. It was so bright to be seen yet too small. Usually planes make noise, this UFO was noiseless at all. It appeared north east and moved to the east in 4 to 5 minutes then disappeared totally.

Also, it got a very very faint white trail, I bearly saw it. When I got home and thought I realized that a plane is always dim white or it glows red not continous bright orange mixed with yellow.

Also fighter planes are black and they never glow to be stealthed. Also it was not a meteor since I saw images and videos and it never looked the same. Egypt never deploys space crafts or expierments in sky. I saw alot of fire works, it was not near to them too. The taxi was driving by the nile in an residental area and cars where around us. The window was open wide and I had my head out to make sure. It seemed like nothing I knew of our world.

White glowing sphere appeared in the sky and moved horizontally leaving a white glowing tail behind it .

Many UFO sightings happened at different times and sites, Sinai, Cairo and many other places here in Egypt,as for me I was one from those who had these sightings at 4.30 am (6/23/2010), while i was studying i saw a glowing whit ball(very small ball indeed), I thought it was a star at the beginning since it was standing still in-spite of it's larger size and suddenly it moved horizontally leaving a glowing white tail behind it and then it disappeared. All this happened in 6 or 7 seven seconds, it wasn't a meteor nor an aircraft it was something else for sure, a UFO or maybe a highly advanced secret weapon, satellite i dunno the only thing i know is that I'm sure of what i had seen already.Next morning i was surfing the web and opened an Arabic news site called masrawy (www.masrawy.com) and i found a title that said: unidentified objects appeared in the skies of north Sinai causing terror among people and i was shocked , here is the link

(www.masrawy.com/New! s/Egypt/Politics/2010/june/23/areesh.aspx)

it's in Arabic unfortunately.finally I'm just asking for a reasonable (or unreasonable) explanation for these sightings that happened to me and to many others all over the country.thanks for your patience. Oh by the way there is video included in the page i sent containing what i saw thanks.

Strobe flashes White/Blueish 0f high energy. Moving in a way which no airliner or aircraft can do.The strobe flashes (freq ca 1 Hz)moved forward suddenly backward, forward again in one yump 90° of track back to track forward and disapeared in a curve in a haze.The sky was clear without clouds. The event took place next to the milky way in an observer angle of appr. 60° left of our desert camp.The event was withnessed by 4 persons. My wife and me are pilots and we cannot explain this event.

Over the area we were is no airway or airtrafic. We were enjoying the evening sky and stars as suddenly the strong strobeflashes draw our attention.First we thought we saw the strobe of a military aircraft.As the flashes jumped backwards my wife and me noticed that no air or spacecraft we know is capable of doing this.

During the night I heard a loud bang outside my window. Me and my brother ran outside and saw exactly 50 crafts floating around our yard. One of them landed and a small man with a long tail and blue fur came out and walked to our shed. When he came out he was carrying my cat. He took my cat into the ship and the crafts stayed until midnight the next day when the ships dissappeared in a flash of blue light. 5 hours later we found our cat, painted red orange, in the toilet.

Location: Sharm El Sheikh (Egypt), , Egypt

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

Bright light observed moving erratically at great speeds. Acceleration and deceleration of craft was great.

I was on holiday in Egypt, at the top of Mt Sinai, viewing the sunrise. In the twilight before sunrise I noticed a single, fairly dim white light, which initially appeared to be a star, in the direction of the sunrise position. The light then began moving left to right to left in a mainly horizontal plane. The movement seemed quite random, i.e. the object did not appear to be travelling toward any particular destination. As an example of the motion observed; the craft would sometimes move to the right, stop, then continue moving to the right. Other times it would move to the right, stop, then begin moving to the left.

The speed of the craft varied, from a slow drift, to a speed so great that it is difficult to explain how this speed was achieved. The craft accelerated extremely rapidly, from an apparent standstill. The craft also decelerated to a stop almost instantaneously, even after it had just accelerated to a great speed. This rapid motion was all in a horizontal direction.

This went on for 20 mins or more. All the while, the craft was very gradually drifting higher in to the sky and to the right. This was happening at the same time as the sun came closer to rising and the twilight became brighter.

When the sun rose, the craft seemed to disappear by fading away. I am not sure if this was caused by the brightness of the sun washing out the light from the craft, or if the craft was in fact moving further away.

I estimate the craft was 10-20km away, and at least 10,000ft altitude. I take these estimates from the fact that the craft occasionally disappeared behind clouds. The clouds appeared to be at quite high altitude.

I took some photographs of what I saw, will need to check the developed pictures to see if the object is clearly visible in the photo as it was quite distant and the camera is only a pocket 35mm type.

Fireball sighting in Egypt

Witnesses: ((name deleted)) (Male) 15 years old high school student, very brilliant , a Computer freak, very well educated, and known with good manners.

((name deleted)) (Female) 22 years Old, in her last year of ((professional)) school, stable person who never had interests in Metaphysics.

The Observation: While ((female)) and ((male)) were studying for their Finals on their mutual room, ((male)) first heard a strange peeping, (((female)) could not confirm hearing the peeping on this stage.), suddenly ((female)) saw a very fast object she described as a Ball of White Light, passing in front (almost inside) of the balcony that was opened, she asked ((male)) if he saw that.

He jumped to the balcony to see what he described as: solid object has a while silver color covered with white light (he described the light a very fine beams covering the ball), when he saw it was 30cm away from him, he said that the object was turning in very hard angle and its speed was depressed in this turn movement, then it accelerated again, and suddenly disappeared and it passed him by 1 meter, he said that he thought that it accelerated to the extent that his eye could not follow.

((male)) Added, that one the object was opposite to his body, he felt the Air moving and his eye start tearing, and his body was in a light shock (he gave a very specific description about his shock feeling, he compared it to his feeling when he drink a cretin flue remedy!).

The peeing lasted 5 seconds after the disappearance of the object, Hadeel confirmed hearing the peeing this time. ((male)) said that the object was not the source of the peeping.

So when the told me I recalled the several observation of what is known as “Light Balls” as I have deep interests in metaphysics, both ((female))l and ((male)) never heard of this expression or any of the stories related to it.

The lights were large like 10-12 cm, but the same intensity of a star, without any fasces. The engine edge away, slowy, smoothly whis no sound. It appear and disappear at the same distance from us, like if the lights were inside the structure and needs to be above us to be seen.

Just to clear up the witnesses thing... I was taking pictures across a bay at night, i did'nt see anything before or after the picture was taken when i reviewed the pitures later i noticed.

I was taking photo's across the bay and i did'nt notice anything strange at all I was using my Digital camera so i was reviewing the picture on the camera's VDU when i noticed just one of the pictures had a circle in it, so i took a closer look across the bay and saw nothing, then dismissed it for the time. When i got home i had a closer look on my PC and was puzzled. I thought it may have been a smudge but it was the only picture with anything + it was a close to perfect circle + the bottom decends below the cliff on the opposite headland. As usual the weather in Sinai was dry, warm and without strong wind. I will send an encompanying Email with the subject Egypt. I am very interested in the answer to this puzzle so even if u take it as a false alarm i would like a reason for this picture, and i am open to any Questions.

Famous writer and 3 others saw bright white sausage object hovering over Giza pyramids

I am not the one who witnessed the event, but it is documented in Arabic through this article by the famous Egyptian writer Mr. Mohamed Salmawy and was published online and offline in Al-Ahram (official newspaper in Egypt) 31st January, 2000 http://www.ahram.org.eg/archive/Index.asp?CurFN=WRIT1.HTM&DID=6556 I would love to help trying to document this famous event by translating the article into English and contact the famous writer Mr. Salmawy by email to have more comments about his encounter and the 4 others who contacted him to report it; since there is no UFO entity in Egypt yet.

The article goes like this: "I was contacted by Omar to let me know in a calm and precise wayy that last Tuesday he saw UFOs over Cairo that emmited a very bright white light that doesn't resemble any electrical light that we know of. --Omar is a good friend of my kids since they were together in school, 4 years back, he graduated from the American University in Cairo, he is now working hard in a media and TV company in Cairo, Egypt-- the objects were similar to Neon lights that were floating in the sky, or similar to a huge Frankfurter shape with rounded edges. Omar said that this was not the first time to see those flying objects. He continues that 8 years back he was sleeping on his bed in one summer night and saw a huge light ball outside his balcony with a trail of non-contineous lights. It lasted for few seconds, turned the place into bright daylight then vanished...

..I asked him wither someone else saw what he saw last week and he instantly said that his mom and driver also was there and saw that. They were all in the car on the "Mouneib Bridge" going from Cairo to Giza and saw those bright objects above the Giza Pyramids, so they stopped the car and went down to watch better, and kept watching till they dissapeared. At that point I myself discovered that I also saw those same lights later during the same night and in the same pattern Omar has discribed!!...

[the writer goes into details about perseption theories and how other countries are studying UFOs phenomena since the 40s] [the writer switches to his story] "I too saw the same phenomena later during the same night, 01/25/2000, i was coming back on the Alitalia flight from Algeria via Italy to Cairo airport. we were still far above Cairo with its glittering lights. I suddenly saw this bright light very visible among the relivantly dimmer city lights. Then it dissapeared. It was similar to a big light bulb. I first thought it was coming from the plane's strobing lights but when it happened again i could tell that it was un-naturaly bright. And was moving with the plane and not stationary as i first thought. It was visibile that it is a rectangular shape flying just above the ground illuminating the ground as it hovered above land with its very special bright pure white (not yellowish as the rest of Cairo's other artificial lights). It happened 4 or 5 times between 11:30 and 11:45 then we landed in Cairo Airport and i forgot all about it till I heared Omar's story." [the writer also discribes another incident] where another male was ubducted into a UFO while he was sleeping in an empty lot in southern Egypt. when he saw a landing UFO and creatures came out and took him inside on an operation table where he was exposed to some rays, later after this insident he started having strange powers like eating and swallowing broken glass and inserting a nail in parts of his body and taking it out from the other side without any trace of blood. And he demonstrated those powers in my office infront of my own eyes.

Omar also started feeling those strange powers, for example sometimes if he just rests his hand on one of his friends that person could fall down to the ground with extreme pain! Lately he started noticing that when he holds a cola glass bottle in his hand, the liquid will turn into frozen ice in the middle of the bottle, while stays as liquid above and bellow the area where Omar was holding it.

Omar also continues that when he saw the fire ball years back, his brother was sleeping in the next bed and didn't see the ball, but when the fire ball crossed infront of the bedroom window the sleeping brother punched the air upwards with his fist while still sleeping. And in after the light dissapeared in few seconds his arm went back to his side whithout waking up. Omar remembers that during this incident there was a ringing or beeping sound coming from the tin trash bin in the same bedroom. The sound was similar to the effect resulting of hitting the tin with another metal piece."

It was night and I was sitting alone in the balcony. The in the north, something apeared suddenly from space but it was at least 1 km away from me; which means that it was somehow invisible.And it stopped for a part of a second,may be that ufo noticed that i was there as it made some thing like a blue flash then it moved again forward toward the north and disappeared the same way it appeared.

It was shining blue in color, and it had something like a shield of glowing light around itthat left something like a blue tail behind ,but not like meteors as the tail stayed for minutes afterward! It is best described like a blue eye, still so so beautiful, and so impressive. But it all lasted for so few seconds, and I am amzaed at the way it apeared .

I forgot to say that the sky was clear, and and there was no source of light at all:it was a new moon, and there were no lights at all around.I was in somesort of a desert and the atmosphee was humid as it had never been.It was the only time in my life to see the stars so clear in the sky(I mean that the sky was so clear:no smoke,no clouds simply nothing).

I am sure that this thing is nothing to do with any planes or experiments or so (As we don't have such things in EGYPT :0 ) but Iam also not sure that it is a UFO (maybe 70 % only).

The only thing that made me write this is that from that incidence strange things have been happening to me. My watch ,which I was wearing that night, stopped working,and from that night I always see strange visions; like a bolt of light rotating around a sphere and explosions and other things.

I wish to be told what had happened or even directed to ones who would be able to.

cone like object passes overhead in the Egyptian/Sanai desert

On spring break with some friends in the Sanai when we met some friendly Bedouin men who offered to take us into the desert for the evening. They seemed of good nature so we took them up on their offer for us to experience a true bedouin night in the desert. We arrived to a spot in the middle of nowhere about twenty minutes from the town of Dahab. We proceded to set up our minimal camp and our bedouin guides cooked up dinner. After our meal we chatted for a while and then we all got into our slleping bags a proceeded to got to sleep. I myself was untired and so sat up for a while ejoying the undisturbed view of the stars. About 45-60 minutes after my friends went to sleep, while looking at the sky, from above and behind me floated over a craft with the shape of a cone or diamond. I say it floated because the cone shape was rotating in a completely non aerodynamic form, the object also seemed to be only 500-800ft. est. above me and made No sound. The craft had various color and shape lights aswell. The sighting lasted about 15 seconds for the craft never noticed myself or my companions and proceeded on its way deeper into the Sanai desert. Imediatly after the object was gone I looked around at my friends who were all asleep and unknowing to what just passed overhead, just at that moment i founnd that one of the bedouin men was awake and had seen everything i had. With my eyes popping out of my head i looked at the man and curiously pointed to the sky, his response was simply "Israeli, secret Israeli" I have no better explanation for what i saw.

This sighting took place in 1990 over in the middle east during Desert Storm.

This sighting took place in 1990 over in the middle east. At that time I was in the military the US AirForce we were dispatched to Egypt pryor to the start up of desert strom to build a fuling base in the desert along with a large MASH unit. While at the site we would start working at dawn and many times would not finish up to well after dark.

The first 30 days we were in country we were house at a large hotel complex in Cairo Egypt. Not sure of the date but one evening after we had finished work we all were waiting on the tarmac for our buses to takes us back to Cairo it was about 72 Degs and a very clear night. Their was aprox 70 of use including our commander.

Shortly after we all gathered to wait for the buses one of the guys pointed to the south east and said what is that well we turned around and looked up. I have never seen anything this until at that moment. There were aprox 100 objects pale orange in color that were at a very high altitude in two V formations one next to the other looked like a W in the sky. These objects moved very slowly from the south east to the northwest.

As they approached our location you could drop a pin and hear it hit the sand not a single person was making a sound. Once they got over head at a high altitude they changed course in unison to the north. We watched them for about 30 to 35 minuets.

I looked over and saw our commander looking up at the objects and asked him what he thought they were. He said I have no idea.

To this day I have not been able to determine what the objects were. I did go to base ops the next day to see if their may have been a large military flyover. NO traffic was in the air that night The Egyptican military do not fly at night and no commercial traffic was in the area.

I submitted this report some years ago to MUFON but have never heard anything back from them or if they received It.

I am now retired from the Air Force and this incident still bugs me I would like to know what they were. By the way being in the middle of the desert their were no external lights other than a bldg light that was on about 500 yards away .

A bright object in the sky moved towards us then flew away.

During the summer of 1990 while serving in the US Army at Sinai Peninsula, myself and 3 other soldiers witnessed a star-like object moving towards us. It seemed to get brighter and bigger in diameter as it got closer. We were all looking at it and it was as if it were looking at us also. The object then stopped and took of into the sky almost like a reverse shooting star quickly fading over the horizon. We never actually saw the object itself, only the light from it. It appeared to be only a star, but that was the first time I ever saw a star move in that manner. Could somebody please E-mail me and let me know if there is any explanation for what we saw?

Summary : Sky show of approximately 30 ufos 'cavorting' for 1 hour over Nile river at Aswan,Egypt.

Myself & 2 others witnessed a l hour 'sky show' of round bright objects overhead.We were on the top deck of a boat on the Nile River at Aswan, Egypt. We were with a tour to see the event of Haley's comet leaving earth that day. It was too hazy to see the comet,so we watched the clear sky overhead. Lights started to appear & move at great speed in all directions & angles. We counted at least 30 or more. It was like play, as there was no pattern to moves. They cavorted all around each other. This lasted 1 hour. Just before dawn,about 5 am, one craft broke away & swooped down towards us at great speed. It did a pass over our heads & disappeared into the dawn sky very fast. It showed us a definate round flat disc as it came close. It appeared like a celebration at the exact time of the comet's last view from earth. It was awesome. The observers were the Tour leader, myself a registered nurse & another registered nurse. I have observed other ufo displays similar to this, but have never seen the disc so clearly or low. In the dim dawn light, it appeared kind of brownish colored. It moved too fast to see any other details.
