Unspecified over Central London, London · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Saw several very bright lights flying and drifting quickly and silently up in the sky. They were bright, flickering, tiny white, green and light red lights. I counted at least 10-15, some seemed to be drifting in groups and others separately.
Held as-reported from UK Ministry of Defence UAP files. Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

Single small white orb shortly joined by two others. Changed into a dull flat circular shape. They were hovering over Central London at 15-20,000 ft but not blown by the wind. Objects disappeared but one reappeared for five minutes.
