– A giant ‘fist-shaped’ cloud punching through the sky was spotted over Portugal;

Mr Pachero said: “As soon as I saw the sky, I was immediately intrigued and I just had to grab my camera to take photo. I was not the only one who seemed to notice it and I could see other people also looking up at the sky. For me, the cloud looks like an outstretched hand with a fireball.”

The photos of the incredible moment have since been widely shared by social media users, who compared Mr Pacheco’s snaps to a gigantic hand of God, a burning fist of fury or a comet.
