Moving in formation in Seine-et-Marne, France

A witness observes from his apartment an object shaped like a flattened rugby ball, bright orange in color, moving in the night sky (11:45 PM). He repeats the observation three times in a row. The observation of red-orange balls crossing the sky silently in a few minutes along the same trajectory strongly suggests Thai lanterns, probably released nearby at the end of a private party. The movement is observed from North to South, which is consistent with the slight North wind recorded at Roissy (see Meteociel). The stop noted during the trajectory could correspond to passing over a geographical feature: this could be woods or the Fosses Maloré hill. GEIPAN classifies this case "B": probable observation of Thai lanterns. The original photos provided are consistent with this hypothesis.
