Bright orange balls of light in random formations and quickly moving, chased by military jets

Bright orange balls of light were making random appearances north of Myrtle Beach. At times there would be one bright orange ball of light that would appear, disappear and the reappear miles away in just a fraction of a second.

At other times more than one object would appear and then move around at velocities and speeds unknown by known aircraft. No sonic booms, no sounds.

At approximately 22:00 5 bright orange balls of light appeared in a pentagon formation all at once and then 2 other lights appeared. The 5 lights remain steady while the other 2 move around.

At approximately 22:15 we see 3 jets approach the area at high speed. When the jets arrive there is nothing there so they quickly turn around and head back in the direction of Shaw AFB.

We have been seeing these balls of light, on and off, for several months and it always happens around the same time of night. The balls of light appear to be over the North Myrtle Beach area. Sometimes over the ocean and sometimes over land.

The appearance last night, based on this report, happened over land.
