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, “Hi-Res: [CALLSIGN] Observes UAP on 25SEP19 at 2135Z,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in 2019. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in October 2019. Video Duration: 00:04:59 Video Description: 00:00-00:33: No Content. 00:34-00:36: An area of contrast enters the sensor field-of-view at the bottom of the screen. 00:37-00:44: The sensor rotates clockwise and corrects slightly counterclockwise to center the area of contrast in the frame. 00:37-01:37: The sensor cycles through several contrast and zoom levels while tracking the area of contrast. 01:38-02:10: At a higher magnification level, the area of contrast appears as a several areas grouped together in the center of the field-of-view. 02:11-03:06: The sensor changes contrast settings several times, causing the screen to flash black and white. The sensor continues to track the areas of contrast. 03:07-04:59: No content. This video description is provided for informational purposes only.
