"Gradually the ball began to expand, it became clear that this is not some radiance and it became scary," Yakovlev told The Siberian Times.

Various reasons have been speculated for this strange occurrence, one of which states that Russian President Vladimir Putin had fired an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) along with three more missiles last night.

These missiles were launched from a mobile launcher which successfully aimed at the Kura testing range in Kamchatka in the country's Pacific coast, The Sun reported.

The light is thought to be caused in the Russian night sky by the trace of the ICBM rocket dubbed Topol-M.
