Initial data
July-August 1921 - 1922, Borisov (Minsk region). The observer Labinskaya A. P. (born in 1910):
"Late one evening, hours 22 - 23, I have two brothers back home. The sky flashed with lightning, and between the flashes was so dark that we had to hold on to houses and fences, not to stray.
We already came to the house, when suddenly everything lit up and we saw that the sky to the horizon covered with round, regular shape, glowing orbs that hung motionless in the air, quite high up, with nothing touching.
The balls were all the same size, about thirty inches in diameter, and the distance between them was small. Flares were not. The brightness of the balls can be compared with the white-hot iron, only the light from them was some ghastly uniform, surrounding objects they shone like the full moon. The orbs seemed as though through sheer. Sound was not any.
We watched these orbs for about five minutes, then we came to the house and what happened to them next, not seen. Soon heavy rain started, and began the usual storm."

Hypotheses
Ball lightning
A rare natural phenomenon, a unified physical theory of the origin and course of which has not been presented to date.
There are about 200 theories explaining the phenomenon, but none of them has received absolute recognition in the academic environment. Since this phenomenon was introduced into the scientific sphere by the English physician and researcher of electrical engineering William Snow Harris in 1843, and a scientist of the French Academy Francois Arago in 1855, many hypotheses were put forward. Here are selectively some of them:
