Bizarre footage has emerged of an apparent 'unidentified flying object' soaring above Moscow during a political protest. Amateur footage in the Russian capital at the weekend caught the 'sighting' of the flying object in the sky, which drew bemused looks from onlookers who were meant to be protesting. As with most apparent alien craft sightings, the quality of the footage and picture is poor, and the shape or size of the object is difficult to work out. The strange craft appears to have legs or blade-like parts similar to that of a helicopter. But witnesses to the UFO 'sighting' insisted it looked like it was flying without a rotor blade or engine. Shocked onlookers climbed trees to grab a closer look at the mysterious craft which seemed to be observing the 25,000 people who had made their way down to Bolotnaya Square to protest on Saturday. Instead of making clear their opposition to Vladimir Putin's United Russia party's contentious victory in elections the week before, the throng were more concerned with watching the skies and the UFO hovering above them. Paranormal writer Michael Cohen said of the latest supposed spot: 'NASA recently admitted that there is a good chance that aliens are monitoring our civilization through the use of 'unmanned' probes. 'Could the craft in these videos from Bolotnaya Square be one of those crafts? It is highly possible that this craft is one of these and aliens are taking an interest in our political affairs.' Russia has been rocked by mass protests against elections in early December which pro-democracy organisers say were rigged in favour of Vladimir Putin and his party. (Read by Nelly Min.

一段奇异的视频显示,俄罗斯民众近日在莫斯科举行政治抗议活动时,天空惊现UFO,在抗议者头顶盘旋许久。 莫斯科的摄影爱好者上周末捕捉到了天空中的这架不明飞行物,抗议人群停下围观,目瞪口呆。 就和大多数较明显的外来飞行物目击事件一样,拍摄的视频和图像都不清晰,飞行物的形状和大小也难以辨认。 这个神奇的飞行物看上去似乎是有腿的,或者是类似于直升机的桨叶。但目击者坚称它看起来无需旋翼桨叶或者引擎就能飞行。 惊奇不已的抗议者甚至爬上大树,试图近距离观察这个神秘飞行物。而这架UFO似乎也正在默默地观察下面的2.5万名抗议者,当时(上周六)人们正前往沼泽广场举行抗议活动。 比起抗议弗拉基米尔•普京领导的统一俄罗斯党在上周选举中争议性的胜出,人们更关注的是天空中盘旋在他们头上的UFO。 超自然作家迈克尔•科恩谈到这次最新的UFO目击事件时说:“美国宇航局最近承认,外星人很有可能正通过‘无人’探测器来监视地球文明。” “沼泽广场录像里的飞行物也是这种探测器吗?这很有可能,而且外星人对我们的政治事件很感兴趣。” 民主派组织者近日举行了震惊全俄的大规模抗议活动,抗议12月初的选举中普京及其政党的舞弊行为。 相关阅读 (中国日报网英语点津 Julie 编辑:陈丹妮) |
