An ‘alien craft’?
Meanwhile in Germany, a strange object – which some believe are a UFO – was spotted “against a cloudless blue sky” on 7 April 2021.

THE CIA’S COLLECTION OF UFO DOCUMENTS
It seems more and more of these occurences are being speculated about online.
In January 2021, The South African reported that the CIA released 2 780 pages of declassified records to the public which details the US government’s findings on UFOs. These reports have been classified since the 1980s.
The documents were posted online when John Greenewald Jr successfully filed a series of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and obtained the newly digitised documents.
Greenewald Jr explained that some of the documents were released in the late 1990s and that the CIA made a digital collection of all UFO documents, “which encompassed the original records”.
After purchasing the collection in mid-2020, Greenewald Jr spent months converting the contents into searchable PDF files. This was the culmination of decades of work on his part. He told Vice’s Samir Ferdowsi:
“Around 20 years ago, I had fought for years to get additional UFO records released from the CIA. It was like pulling teeth! I went around and around with them to try and do so, finally achieving it. I received a large box, of a couple of thousand pages, and I had to scan them in one page at a time”.
