Can't be that. The person shooting the video zooms in to the lights. If this were a reflection from the window the zooming in would have gone past the hyperfocal distance of the window, blurring out any window reflection.

Another thing that is strange, is there is no luminescence from the object as they "disappear" into the cloud. A light source disappearing into clouds generates a glow, which is missing completely as the objects disappear from the video, meaning they did not get lost in the cloud. The flare story also does not hold water as magnesium or phosphorus flares generate a very visible smoke trail. Not sure what is in that video, but the explanations to date do not stand up to scrutiny.
