Strange events that convinced ufo watchers we are not alone

A COLD winter’s night in South Wales on February 26, 2016, was anything but ordinary in one village, some say.

In a scene worthy of an episode of the X-Files, several witnesses report seeing a huge UFO and other lights, along with military planes, helicopters, a chase, explosions, shaken buildings, damaged trees and wreckage at land in Pentyrch, near Cardiff.

An Apache helicopter landing with its cockpit on fire, weird snow, and mystery men in white overalls were other reported sightings.

The activity was explained as an armed forces exercise going under the codename “Chameleon”.

But many still believe it was something out of this world, claiming to have spotted unidentified lights which do not conform to the normal idea of a military aircraft.

Members of Swansea UFO Network recently visited the spot of the sighting, guided by a woman who goes by the alias Caz Clarke and claims to have witnessed the events.

The group claim to have discovered electromagnetic residue, which they say is evidence something unnatural occurred.

“We went up to the top of Garth Mountain itself, which gave a good view, and you can see right across where it took place,” Swansea UFO network co-founder Emlyn Williams said.

“We went to the site and there is a strong EM residue in the core location to the place the UFOs were spotted.

“It’s physical evidence something unusual happened there.”

Recalling the events of that day more than two years ago, Ms Clarke said she could “categorically state it was no exercise”.

“I will take a lie detector anywhere for anyone but what I witnessed will stay with me for the rest of my life,” she said.

“What is more, the military knew they were coming and had a spotter plane in the air for two days waiting for ‘the event.’

“When it came, four planes chased the “green” object whilst the spotter plane circled approximately six red oval objects, which formed a pyramid shape.

“Several red spheres hovered silently above the fields until the helicopters came.”

Another witness, Mike Henbury, claims to have seen a red pulsing light, followed by two more which formed a triangle descending from the clouds.

Mr Henbury said: “It looked very large indeed.

“I don’t think it touched down totally but about 10 to 12 feet from the ground it lit up fully, showing the full outline of it, then it dimmed down.”

He added that black, red and green orbs emerged from it “as if they were dancing and moulding into one, pulsing from red to green slowly”. For more information go to weather.co.uk
