The story is reminiscent of a swirling light seen in Norway in December 2009, which ended up being a Russian missile test. At the time, The Sun quoted Russian defense analyst Pavel Felgenhauer as saying, Such lights and clouds appear when a missile fails.
That also may have been the case here, as Ynet reported Russia's Defense Ministry confirmed an intercontinental ballistic missile test tonight.
The Jerusalem Post's Yaakov Lappin had a similar report, tweeting, "Mysterious light explained. Russia announces it carried out successful inter-continental ballistic missile test."
