First there was a sighting and a video made by a user called eligael.
He was with another fellow who also appears in the video, filming with his cell phone.
He called it

Someone who understands the language posted in the Cass forum:
Keit said:
"Group of Israeli youngsters are driving back home after going out. They are talking, laughing, etc. One of them drank too much (from the video it is also clear that he speaks or at least curses in Russian) and is begging his friends to stop the car. After awhile they stop it, he comes out, and after that the girl comes out to see what he is doing. This is when the rest of them probably notice that they are looking at something, and this is when they record the object. They are all very surprised and even frightened, especially after seeing the flash. "
B) Additional info and thoughts:
-Note also There are some videos on the you tube that tries to synchronize them
-I see that so far there were 4 different videos posted, (mentioned above), 3 of which are pretty good candidates for being genuine captures of a strange phenomena,
or else they are sophisticated hoaxes.
-Interesting that inserted into this is a video that is
an unsophisticated hoax. How does one explain this one? A couple of ideas come to mind of course. One is that it was planted by a someone wishing to cover up or discredit a real unexplained phenomenon by having a "straw man" with which main stream can refer to (instead of the others) and give everyone a reason to "tune out" the whole thing. Or, since it was done so poorly, it was INTENDED to be seen as a fake, so that people will see the obviousness of the hoax compared to the others, so that more attention will be brought to the event and make people believe in it more, for some sort of agenda of some kind.
-I found it interesting to check out a user called HOAXKiller1 who went to a lot of effort to convince us that at least the first two videos posted by eligael and shshsh331 have anomalies that he says proves they are fakes. However, others have said the video compression inherent in the equipment today can possibly account for a lot of these anomalies and so, in my opinion, his work is not that convincing. (although he may still be right).
Further from looking (briefly) at his youtube page, I quickly got the impression that HOAXKiller1 is a person with a closed mind: his postings seem to come to the pre-drawn conclusion that there simply does not exist any unexplained phenomena. In other words, he may be religious like many so-called skeptics that set about proving that there is nothing unexplained, and therefore they always find a way to explain things, and the facts be damned.
