ALBAWABA - A video depicting an enigmatic bright object blazing across the sky was made public by Iranian official media on Saturday morning. The public is widely curious and speculative about the phenomenon.
The bright object was spotted in a number of locations, including Tehran, Karaj, Shahriar, and Arak, according to social media users. Images and videos of the object swiftly gained popularity, igniting debates about where it came from.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)-affiliated Tasnim News Agency said that an unidentified source explained that "the luminous object observed in the skies of certain cities is linked to a routine field test conducted by the IRGC."
The insider made it clear that there was nothing to be alarmed about and that the luminous phenomenon was a planned operation. Although more information on the test's nature was not made public, the remark seemed to allay popular interest.
