The US War Department has released 2025 video footage showing what appears to be an unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP) moving over the Middle East. The footage matters because it forms part of the government’s continuing public disclosure of reports involving objects that military personnel could not immediately identify.

The video was recorded by an electro-optical and infrared sensor aboard a US military platform, according to the article. US Central Command submitted a report on the incident, which was included in the latest batch of government material concerning UAPs; the release does not establish what the object was or where it came from.
