A formation of five focused areas of light, objects-, moving incredibly fast from west to east, and east to west

At approximately 9:15 p.m. on December 31st 2023 from a ground-based observation point looking to the 090 dissappearing the east, a single orb or white light source within the cloud layer with no evidence of spot light projection beams, the object of white light was single and moved at an incredibly fast rate of speed from east to west. Then another pass from west to east, followed by a formation of five white orbs or white objects, in a linear pattern of all five with the leftmost to the north and the rightmost to the South, all moving in formation at an incredible rate of speed from west to east. An airliner at 500 mph would take several minutes to transit this swath of sky, these objects did so in a matter of 1.5 seconds, from an angle of 70° up, and transiting off to the horizon before dissappearing, then reappearing, and heading from the horizon to observation point, from 090, heading to 270 degrees. Then they would switch directions and all five would go from west to east, followed by a pass of one object and then that one object going the other direction followed by all five going in both directions, basically doing passes from the west to east and the east to the west at an incredibly high rate of speed. Did not see any evidence of a spotlight; there was no forecasting beam, these were individually appearing light sources and appearing a couple thousand feet above ground level, hard to say exactly what altitude but the weather was overcast, and these objects appeared to be within or just below the cloud base. No sound. Silent. No sonic boom, no engine noise, no plume, no exhaust. Just round light
