Original excerpt
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, “Spherical UAP over AFG in and out of clouds 23 Nov 2020,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating in the United States Central Command area of responsibility in November 2020. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in June 2024. Video Duration: 00:00:47 Video Description: This media was digitally altered prior to its upload to a classified network, and is presented as received. 00:00-00:02: A black screen appears featuring the phrase “zoomed in.” 00:03-00:10: An area of contrast becomes visible near the top left corner of the screen, transiting from left to right before losing distinctiveness against the background. 00:11-00:12: A black screen appears featuring the phrase “sharpened, zoomed motion tracked contrast enhanced slow to 60% speed.” 00:12-00:28: The video replays at reduced speed and increased zoom level. 00:28-00:29: A black screen appears featuring the phrase, “original video.” 00:30-00:47: An area of contrast appears near the center of the top of the frame, transits downward to the left, before moving to the right and losing distinctiveness against the background. This video description is provided for informational purposes only. Readers should not interpret any part of this description as reflecting an analytical judgment, investigative conclusion, or factual determination regarding the described event’s validity, nature, or significance.
Key claims
AARO released a November 2020 infrared video depicting a spherical object transiting in and out of clouds over Afghanistan; the footage was digitally altered before classified network upload in June 2024.
Alternative explanation
AARO disclaims any analytical judgment regarding the event's validity or nature, and notes the media lacks substantiated chain-of-custody.
