UFO in Riez 1994, luminous sphere and military maneuvers

Summary

On June 22, 1994, a witness in Riez, France, observed a luminous sphere from their vehicle, which landed and then split into three parts before taking off. The next day, gendarmes found military personnel using a cannon at the observation site. Although no further details are available, military exercises in the area may explain the phenomenon. This case, classified as B by the GEIPAN, suggests that human activity can be mistaken for unidentified objects. The witness's brief description adds a touch of mystery to a situation ultimately attributed to a military operation.
