Breaking News: Air France Suspends Flights Over Red Sea After Strange Object Sighting

Air France has suspended flights over the Red Sea after a glowing object was spotted near one of its planes.

The airline said in a statement that the sighting occurred on Tuesday, July 11, 2023, when an Air France flight from Paris to Cairo was flying over the Red Sea. The pilots reported seeing a bright, spherical object that was moving at high speed. The object was visible for about 10 seconds before it disappeared.

Air France said that it has reported the sighting to the French aviation authorities, and that it is working with them to investigate the incident. The airline has also suspended all flights over the Red Sea until further notice.

The sighting of the glowing object comes just days after a similar incident was reported by a Saudi Arabian Airlines flight.

On July 9, 2023, a Saudi Arabian Airlines flight from Jeddah to Cairo reported seeing a bright, cylindrical object that was moving at high speed. The object was visible for about 5 seconds before it disappeared.

The Saudi Arabian Airlines incident is still under investigation, and there is no official explanation for what the object was. However, some experts have speculated that it may have been a meteor or a piece of space debris.

The sightings of these glowing objects over the Red Sea have raised concerns about the safety of air travel in the region. Air France has suspended flights over the Red Sea until further notice, and other airlines may follow suit.

The investigation into these sightings is ongoing, and it is not yet clear what the objects were or what their significance is.
