Unresolved UAP Report, Middle East, May 2022

DOW-UAP-PR019 is a five-second infrared sensor video submitted by U.S. Central Command to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), recorded from an unspecified U.S. military platform over the Middle East in May 2022. The accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D10, characterized the primary object as a "possible missile" and noted four additional objects not shown in the video as "possible birds." The footage shows a area of contrast moving left to right across the bottom third of the sensor frame at approximately the two-second mark.

The report is classified as unresolved, meaning AARO did not reach a definitive identification. The document contains no OCR text, suggesting the underlying materials remain largely withheld or were not captured in this release. The "possible missile" characterization in the mission report is operator-level field notation, not an analytical conclusion. The case is one of many CENTCOM-sourced infrared sensor reports in the PURSUE Release 01 corpus and illustrates the routine ambiguity present in single-sensor, short-duration UAP submissions.
