DOW-UAP-PR35, Unresolved UAP Report, Greece, October 2023

Greece

Declassified

Government description

The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of 24 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2023. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D35, described the UAP as small and circular, flying near the surface of the ocean toward land. Video Description: 00:02: The sensor narrows its field-of-view to zoom in on an area of contrast near the center of the screen. 00:03-00:19: The sensor tracks the area of contrast as it moves against the ocean background. 00:20: As the background scene transitions from being predominantly water to land, the area of contrast becomes indistinguishable.
