Number of witnesses: only myself AFAIK

Description of sighting:

Was doing some cleaning in the kitchen when I saw what I at first thought was a star/planet. It was quite bright, though, so I kept looking and saw it moving towards me slowly.

I started recording as you can see in the video. Didn't hear anything out of the ordinary but I was inside with closed windows.

It moved from east to west. I looked up ISS but it was nowhere near. Didn't find any other sattelite this bright that could be the object we see, but perhaps there is one. It's not the Chinese Space Station, I checked.

Flightradar24 shows 1 flight in the general area but it does not follow the right trajectory for it to be this 'object'.

Could be an unregistered flight, sattelite or drone, but I would like to hear your opinions.

It also appears to stop moving but that could be hard/software related. Filmed with Samsung Galaxy S23.
