I think the “United-Arab-Emirates- October-2023” uap video released today could possibly be the “Jellyfish Uap” that’s been reported to be seen mostly in the Middle East

Narrative
The first two Photos are from the footage released today that was taken in the UAE, I just think they look slightly similar to what has been called the jellyfish yap. The jellyfish yap, is often reported in the Middle East, and of course my main reason for thinking is because there is something low hanging but I hope we get more footage! submitted by /u/Sure_Departure_6989
