I decided to create a new thread in order to mention two recent sightings. There are no videos or photos, only reports, that's why didn't share it in the "Videos of strange and mysterious objects and other phenomena in the sky".
First, on 4th of January in Rostov region there was a sighting of a ball shaped object. This was also mentioned in the 14th of January session:
The sighting was mentioned by the governor of Rostov's region:
The second one occurred on 2nd of February in Volgograd airspace. The object was seen by several pilots. What is also interesting that it was the Day of military glory of Russia — Victory in the Battle of Stalingrad (now Volgograd). And Putin arrived to Volgograd to commemorate this day and participate in various events.
One local source said that the sighting was at the similar time when Putin was arriving to the city, but it's not possible to verify this assertion. Only that the sighting was on the same date. Not sure if the airspace would be closed at the time of the presidential flyby or not.
The sighting was reported by the Telegram channel "Aviatorshina". Also mentioned and reposted by other channels.

Q: (Adobe) What if anything was shot down over the Rostov region in Russia (UFO?)
(L) When?
(Niall) Last week. They said it was a drone, but there were rumors on the ground that there was a strange light.
A: UFO was not shot down but was observing.
The sighting was mentioned by the governor of Rostov's region:
Clarified information about what happened the day before.
Yesterday at about 22 hours an air defense system was operating 7 km from the village of Sultan Saly in the Myasnikovsky district. At an altitude of 2.5 km a small ball-shaped object was detected which was flying freely in the wind. A decision was made to eliminate it.
I urge everyone to stay calm. All forces and means are involved to ensure safety. The sky is covered by anti-aircraft defenses.

UFOs near Volgograd. The crew of Airbus A321 S7 Airlines flying S72046 from Sochi to Moscow reported 12 minutes before flying over Volgograd at an altitude of 10,000 meters that they observed an unidentified flying object on the left side of the traverse - the object was changing color and altitude.
The crew could not determine its distance from the plane. Later the crews of Aeroflot (SU1125), S7 Airlines (S73750) and Rossiya (SU6358) flights confirmed this information after flying over Volgograd. The Rossiya crew identified the object's distance as about 200 km. The competent authorities were notified, as no flight plans were provided in the specified area at this time, and no airspace permit was issued.
