Sighting in Puilboreau, January 18, 2025

At around 6 p.m., a witness parked in a supermarket car park noticed something unusual in a heavily clouded sky. It was a luminous bar made up of about ten yellow rectangles, like windows. The witness stressed that it was not a solid structure, just rectangles of light.

The phenomenon was at first motionless, then moved slowly and silently for about 30 seconds before disappearing behind the cloud layer.

The case rests on a single account, taken down in an official statement, with no photo or video to support it. The witness did not respond to the investigator's requests, so the details needed for a deeper analysis could not be obtained, and the case's consistency was rated low. Several hypotheses were examined, but without solid information none could be weighted or retained. GEIPAN classified the case as C: unidentified phenomenon due to insufficient information.
