Official Conclusion
No conclusion stated; AARO assessed the video is likely from a U.S. military infrared sensor in the CENTCOM AOR but made no determination regarding the nature or significance of the observed objects.
Official Description
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, “HH11 03 July 2018 UAPs,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in 2018. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in July 2020. Video Duration: 00:01:19 Video Description: 00:00-00:12: No Content. 00:13-00:21: Two areas of contrast enter the lower right side of the screen and exit the bottom of the screen. 00:13-00:29: The sensor pans to track the two areas of contrast, centering them generally within the center of the field-of-view. 00:30-00:47: The sensor zooms in. One of the areas of contrast is no longer visible within the frame at this level of magnification. The area of contrast within the sensor field-of-view appears as three distinct areas of contrast in a generally straight line. 00:47-00:58: The distance between the rightmost area of contrast and the center and left areas of contrast appears to increase. The center and left areas of contrast appear to remain at a roughly fixed distance from one another. 00:59-01:19: Other areas of contrast enter the field-of-view from the top of the screen.

Key Findings
An infrared sensor video uploaded to a classified network in July 2020, titled 'HH11 03 July 2018 UAPs,' was identified by AARO as likely originating from a U.S. military platform operating in the CENTCOM area of responsibility in 2018. The video was among 51 potentially UAP-related records requested by eight House members in March 2026. AARO notes the materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody and provides only a neutral visual description without analytical conclusions.
Analyst Notes
AARO explicitly states the materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody, which significantly limits evidential value. The video description is provided for informational purposes only with no analytical judgment or investigative conclusion offered. The uploader-defined title is the sole source of the incident date, and the video was uploaded to a classified network two years after the alleged incident date. No sensor data metadata, platform identification, or witness accounts are provided to corroborate the nature of the observed objects.
