UFO/UAP Sighting Sighting Reported in Los Angeles County, CA

On the evening of Jun 21, 2026 at approximately 9:15-9:25pm I had been looking westward admiring the stars looking directly at Venus, when I noticed another super bright star to its left at about a 45 degrees, the star really caught my attention because I had never seen another star near venus which was just as bright or brighter.
I almost felt compelled to intensely stare when I thought I could see some kind of movement, I felt like it was coming toward me almost in a bouncing motion left to right moving toward me just so slightly
this went on for what seemed like 5-8 minutes. At night outside I always carry a small 6-800 lumens flashlight I thought to flash the beam upward in the direction of it…. 2 to 3 seconds later it suddenly looked like it began flashing..not on and off but the brightness and shape was changing which caused it to start getting a little larger then it starting slowly splitting in two, this caused me to rapidly open and close my eyes and focus more intensely not believing what i was seeing, I seen the light split in two slowly and completely seperate of one another. One light headed westward, what seemed downward to me, and the other at a 45 degree upward direction away from each other. the light heading west, 3-5 seconds later went dark.. which made me to look at the other heading upward, and for a second was still a visible light then also went dark. I again batted my eyes to tell myself…is this really happening? I know what I just saw and I know it wasnt a drone or a rocket changing stages, Ive seen both and this was neither.
