An emergency alert was sent out by security forces after the chilling sight was reported and the airport was shut down for several hours.
The object was very clearly visible at the Imphal’s Bir Tikendrajit International Airport, according to an unnamed official from one of India’s federal police agencies.
No evidence of a UFO was found after it was first seen.
A post on X by the Indian Air Force (IAF) read: “IAF activated its Air Defence response mechanism based on visual inputs from Imphal airport.

“The small object was not seen thereafter.”
Indian authorities have kept most details about their investigation onto the mystery sighting a secret.
A wild video on social media shows a small white dot visible just above the airport as people look on in disbelief.
Rafale fighter jets were sent to investigate the object from the Hashimara airbase in the eastern state of West Bengal.
A defence official told ANI: “Soon after information about the UFO near the Imphal airport was received, a Rafale fighter aircraft from a nearby airbase was scrambled to go and search for the UFO.”
The fighter jets were well equipped with special sensors as they flew over the suspicious area near the airport.
“The UFO was visible with bare eyes moving westwards of the airfield (at the Imphal airport) till 4 pm,” an official from India’s Central Industrial Security Force told PTI.
The investigation reportedly took around three hours to be finished.
Two flights were diverted from the airport and three other flights were delayed as the IAF halted operations at the airport before letting it start back up again.
This comes after footage was released that shows a UFO flying just past a passenger jet in a frightening near-miss 35,000ft in the air.
In the YouTube video posted by Ensaladilla, it shows the view from a plane window above the clouds, as a mysterious, black object glides past.
A previous video showed a pill-shaped object that appeared as a plane was passing overhead through a wormhole.
He explained further in the video’s caption, saying the “strange flashing light” was “moving slowly in the sky, a little slower than the planes flying around.
“I could see the random flashing coming from the object for about 10 seconds.
Residents in Paradise, California have been left baffled by a darting UFO that was spotted moving through the clouds.
The bizarre video from September 2 shows an orb of light illuminating the sky and then darting around the clouds.
The UFO appeared and disappeared multiple times as it twirled around and left a trail of light behind it.
That light was the second of its kind observed by onlookers that night.
