DOW-UAP-D008, Mission Report, Djibouti, 2025
▮ AI SYNOPSIS · Sonnet 4.6
DOW-UAP-D008 is a Mission Report (MISREP) dated 2025, released by the Department of War on May 8, 2026, as part of the PURSUE Release 01 program. The incident location is listed as the Mediterranean Sea. A U.S. military operator reported observing two round, "white hot" UAPs at 1653Z, moving southward at approximately 240 nautical miles per hour (276 mph), near grid coordinate 35SQT3423692957. The report was submitted to AARO through standard military UAP reporting channels.
The document is heavily redacted under exemption 1.4(a), with six of seven pages withheld in full; the only substantive content visible is the GENTEXT section. The operator's identity, platform type, sensor details, and broader mission context are all absent. The estimated speed of 240 knots is within the range of conventional aircraft, but no identification or resolution is documented here. The geographic discrepancy between the listed incident location (Mediterranean Sea) and the document title (Djibouti) is unresolved in the available text.
