DOW-UAP-PR098, "UFO במבנה מעל המפרץ הפרסי?"

On March 6, 2026, eight members of the U.S. House of Representatives requested access to 51 potentially UAP-related records allegedly held by the Department of War and the Intelligence Community. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) identified a collection of responsive materials held on a classified network. Many of these materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody.AARO assesses that this video, whose uploader-defined title is, “UFOs in formation over Persian Gulf?” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in October 2019.Video Duration: 00:17:36Video Description:00:00-00:02: No Content.00:02-00:21: An area of contrast becomes visible. The sensor pans to track the area of contrast within the center of the field-of-view.00:22-01:59: The sensor zooms in on the area of contrast. At a higher level of magnification, the area appears as multiple distinct areas of contrast.02:00-02:02: The areas of contrast briefly leave the field-of-view.02:03-04:00: The sensor zooms in and out multiple times to track the area of contrast.04:01-04:26: The area of contrast becomes less distinguishable against the background. The sensor zooms in further.04:27-06:29: The sensor progressively zooms in on the area of contrast.06:30-13:17: The area of contrast is at times indistinguishable from the grain of the video. The sensor makes several contrast adjustments to compensate.13:18-16:22: The sensor zooms in and out several times.16:23-17:23: The area of contrast repeatedly exits and enters the frame.17:24-17:27: The sensor zooms out to track the area of contrast.17:27-17:36: No content.This video description is provided for informational purposes only.
