- The presence of UFOs in Venezuela has become increasingly
more frequent and intense. A new sighting has been reported from the coastal
state of Falcón, a region in which these enigmatic objects have
been popularly classified by local residents as "avioncitos"
(little airplanes) due to their breathtaking and customary appearances.
-
- On September 28, 2003, two witnesses observed the manuevers
of an enormous luminous sphere that flew over the Punto Fijo region of
Falcon, to the northwest of the Gulf of Venezuela. The event took place
at approximately 7:45 p.m. while José Jiménez and his father-in-law
performed fishing tasks in the vicinity of the Villamarina and El Pico
beaches.
-
- According to Jiménez, the source produced an intense
and "glistening" white light that came from above. This caused
him to look up to the heavens and notice the strange and nearby luminous
presence among "hundreds of stars in the sky".
-
- The witness added that after a while, after having remained
static for a few seconds, the obejct became lost after performing zig-zagging
and vertical "appearances" and "disappearances" in
the air space over Falcón.
-
- It is worth noting that it is not the first time that
such events have been reported in the area. Dozens of people have repeatedly
reported the presence of these odd luminous obejcts. Likewise "confidential"
unofficial communications made by the crews fo Venezuelan vessels have
also reported strange objects during crossings of the deep waters of the
Gulf of Venezuela.
