Background
In 2024, a US military platform at an undisclosed location in the Middle East recorded 6 minutes and 41 seconds of infrared video footage of an unidentified object. AARO's analysis was inconclusive, although the agency suspected either a sensory artifact or a 'thermal emission or reflection from a physical source.' The video was published on the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service as 'Unresolved UAP Report: Middle East 2024', dated May 16, 2025. The Department of Defense refused to release any records relating to its assessment of the video, as John Greenewald reported in The Black Vault on September 29, 2025. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
