‘Huge glowing’ UFO filmed above Moscow homes (VIDEO)

Footage of a ball of light hovering over apartments in a residential area of Moscow has sparked the interest of alien hunters curious about the potentially extraterrestrial origins of the mysterious phenomenon.

The UFO was recorded on October 3 hovering and flying over homes in the Marfino District of Moscow, according to InformVest.

Video of the incident shows a huge glowing object in the night skies lingering over houses before flying out of sight.

The footage was uploaded to YouTube and shared on a UFO Insiders page on Russian based social networking site VK.

Last month REN TV reported that three pilots claimed to witness a bizarre glowing object in the air over Tomsk in Siberia. The UFO was said to have frightened the pilots who were Russian, Chinese and Korean

One YouTube user suggested that the occurrence of UFOs in Russia was not unusual, noting that they are “quite often” spotted in Moscow, Volgograd and Astrakhan.
