Early on a Wednesday morning in mid-April 2026, residents of a neighborhood in Jáchal, a small town in Argentina’s San Juan province, noticed three lights in the sky. At first they assumed it was a car coming down the road toward them. That idea didn’t last. The lights were up in the sky, and according to a local report they were behaving strangely.

Someone filmed them, and the video made its way to Coast to Coast AM’s weird-news pages, which described three floating lights and said witnesses quickly dismissed the car explanation.

That’s nearly all that’s known. The report doesn’t name who shot the video or say how long the lights stayed, whether they moved together or apart, or how they left. The local outlet isn’t named in the English coverage.

Argentina produces a steady stream of light sightings, some of which tap into the country’s folklore of the luz mala, an evil light said to haunt the countryside. Others are later traced to drones, lanterns or aircraft. Without the original report or a fuller video, there’s no way to say which this was.

What's disputed or missing

  • Who filmed the lights and when exactly. Neither has been reported.
  • Whether the three lights moved together, which might point to a drone formation or aircraft.
