Background
On 24 December 2024, the Ukrainian military uses a Mavic 3T drone to record a UAP simultaneously with conventional and thermal cameras. The infrared footage shows a group of five spherical objects that are completely invisible to the conventional camera. The final identification analysis classifies the objects as UAP on the basis of anomaly factors including small size, unusual shape, group formation, visual invisibility, straight trajectory and low altitude. The case is described by Artem Bilyk and Kyrylo Nikolaiev in their article on Ukrainian military observations of aerospace objects and phenomena in the spring 2026 special issue of CTX. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
