AnomalyOn December 11, 1997 at around 11 p.m., silent luminous flashes were observed by military personnel. At the same time, brief power cuts were observed. These cuts were confirmed by EDF as being due to an incident on the 33 kV line serving the area. Given the simultaneity of the events, it is likely that the flashes observed occurred on the 33 kV line at the time of the incidents recorded on that line.
