He added: ‘Aliens are aware that we have made a number of space launches recently and have identified that we have been sending up ‘war material’.

‘Concerned by our activity, they have been increasingly monitoring our planet.

‘This year will be very important for those of us who follow this phenomenon closely.’

But UFO expert Pedro Ramirez believes there is an extraterrestrial explanation. He said that Aliens are aware that we have made a number of space launches recently and have identified that we have been sending up 'war material' so they are monitoring us more closely
