Army Veterans Speak Out About Mind-Blowing 'Hypersonic' UFO Encounter In Egyptian Desert

Three US veterans have told the story of an eerie encounter they had with what they claim was a UFO while on deployment in the Middle East in 2014.

Sergeant Travis Bingham, E4 Specialist Vishal Singh, and Private First Class Dovell Engram all witnessed the same strange event.

All three were trained military observers and were familiar with all types of aircraft that should have been in the area at the time.

Engram was the first to spot the strange object and he reckons it was moving at 'hypersonic' speeds.

The former soldier said the UFO seemed to spin, with smaller lights branching out from it that spiralled like fireworks.

Bingham corroborated the tale told by his fellow soldiers.

"The objects were glowing – you could clearly see them with the naked eye, and it was clear how fast they were moving."

He added: "To this day, I’ve never seen anything like the craft, covering such distance with extreme speeds."

The three men said they did not know how to tell their superiors what they had seen and there was no official way to report it.

Singh added: "The craft and smaller objects began moving like fireflies, left, right, up and down. They were turning everywhere instantaneously.

"They must have been 30,000 ft high in the sky.

"I cannot imagine any military that has this type of technology. We’re talking u-turns while at hypersonic speeds."

But that looks set to change, with US lawmakers meeting for a hearing on Tuesday (May 17) to discuss UFOs sightings.

Chairman of the panel of lawmakers, Democrat André Carson, said in his opening remarks at the congressional hearing that 'Unidentified Aerial Phenomena are a potential national security threat'.
