Five UFOs spotted in Scots skies during April

UFO hunters made five extraterrestrial sightings across Scotland in April - which is said to be the highest recorded this year so far.

Alien investigative group UFO Identified said that a number of Scots followers reported the sightings to them last month.

The group collect and collate reports from across the UK to build one of the largest databases of modern day sightings in the country.

A spokesperson for the website says that interest in UFOs in Scotland has grown in recent weeks amid a US Government investigation into extra-terrestrials.

The US Department of Defense recently released three declassified videos of “unexplained aerial phenomena”.

Two were previously published in the American press, while the third was leaked by a group co-founded by the former Blink-182 singer Tom DeLonge.

In April, we reported on three separate UFO sightings that were made within 18 miles of one another.

A witness claimed to see a triangular shaped aircraft while they were taking their dog a walk in Tullibody, Clackmannanshire.

They said: “My immediate thought was that it was a Chinese lantern, but it was moving too fast. Then I thought meteorite. It was bright orange and composed of three small triangles close together.

“I watched it until it disappeared into a bank of clouds. I moved on to think about it further when another one appeared from the same direction, same colour, speed and form.”

The North West UFO group said that it recorded a 33 potential extra-terrestrial sightings across Scotland last year.

Last year is said to have seen a jump in sightings across the UK alongside the launch of SpaceX’s Starlink satellites.
