Even if the title of the article talks about "ufo", I actually think that it's more fits in the category of "earth changes"
because in my opinion - this is not UFO but meteorite.
Also, several months ago, I and other 3 people saw exactly the same thing in Tel Aviv sky. It was also sunset time, and "object" had orange color. It looked like slowly falling meteorite. We had to leave the place, so I wasn't able to observe it till the end.
What is most interesting though, that Ynet do not even speculate about a possibility of a meteorite, but talk about UFO or a plane. They add ridicule factor to the story, so people will laugh about it and will say that this is obviously a plane and not UFO (or something else).

strange object was spotted in the Tel Aviv skies Thursday afternoon by three flat mates standing on their terrace. The three told ynet they suddenly saw a flash of light cross the sky as they were standing on their terrace located on Rothschild Boulevard.
"We suddenly saw a strip of bright light flying downwards," said Lior one of the three flat mates. "There was a sense of something supernatural happening, I have never seen such a thing," she added.
The three testified that the unidentified object didn't make a sound and it remained in the sky for about 15 minutes, they said it was orange at first and then it turned white.
Meir, one of the three flat mates, didn't want to miss the opportunity of documenting the unidentified object crossing the sky and quickly grabbed his camera capturing the picture you see here. "This thing fell downwards and before landing it made a right turn and disappeared from view," he told ynet.
So have aliens from outer space arrived in Tel Aviv? Experts are very skeptical. Chairman of the Israeli Astronomical Association and the director of the observatory in Givataim Yigal Pat-El said he was convinced it was an aircraft.
"If they saw it at five o'clock in the afternoon it is very likely that it was an aircraft emitting white smoke, in the picture it even looks like it has two engines, and you can see that it is flying towards the horizon and not downwards," said Pat-El.
Pat-El added that the reddish tint was created by the angle of the sun's rays, just as it paints clouds red at sunset. He explained that when the sun sets, its rays pass through and color the clouds red, and this is what he believes happened here.
Surprisingly, despite the scary feeling Lior tends to agree with the expert. "It was my assumption as well," she said. "I also thought the orange tint came from the sunset."
Police say they received no reports of irregular aerial activity in the area.
