Initial data
Something incredible is going on in Almaty - lightning strikes in the Kok—Tobe, then unknown objects fly through the night sky.
Numerous videos with glowing lights in the sky are shared by users of social networks. Some suggested that they were meteorites, others said that they were Starlink satellites. By the way, the Ministry of Digital Development also adheres to the latest version.

_______________
This night, at about 2:30-3:00, residents of the metropolis and the region witnessed a strange starfall.
If you believe the numerous videos that eyewitnesses actively share, several fairly large objects flew slowly through the sky.
The authors of the videos themselves, as well as commentators, have put forward many versions.
Some believe that these are Starlink satellites (but they usually fly in a chain and above, others object). Someone suggested that these are meteorites (although meteorites burn up in the atmosphere many times faster, the opponents replied). Some decided that it was a comet (not funny, the experts replied). The version with an airplane or helicopter did not stand up to criticism at all. There were also those who suggested that the separated stages of the launch vehicle burn up in the atmosphere in this way. But then the question arose, was there a launch yesterday? And if there was, then from where.
Hypotheses
Space debris
By space junk refers to all manmade objects and their fragments in space, which is already faulty, not functioning, and will never be able to serve any useful purpose. Currently in low earth orbits up to altitudes of about 2000 km is, according to various estimates, about 220 thousand (300 thousand according to the UN office for outer space Affairs, October 2009) man-made objects weighing up to 5000 tons.
In the case of UFOs, it is possible to expand this list lost cosmonauts things (tools, etc.).
Investigation
According to experts of the V.G. Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, the unusual phenomenon observed by residents of the Almaty region on the night of June 12-13 is explained by the burning of fragments of a satellite that collapsed upon entering the Earth's atmosphere.
The collapsed satellite could be the Starlink-31469 satellite, whose entry into the Earth's atmosphere was predicted on 06/13/2024.
