DOW-UAP-PR22, Unresolved UAP Report, Syria, July 2022

A 30-31 July 2022 USCENTCOM mission report from the 89th Attack Squadron (89 ATKS) documenting a sub-minute UAP observation over Syria during an armed-reconnaissance ISR sortie in support of Task Force Chosin.

Brief

The MISREP, originated by the 89 ATKS / 432 AEW under Operation INHERENT RESOLVE and approved by the 609th AOC, logs that at 310239Z JUL22 the aircrew "observed an unidentified aerial phenomenon" while flying at 19,359 ft and 116 kts over grid 37SFU4 in Syria. The narrative places the UAP near grid 37SFU2, says it "occured in less than a minute, with the UAP moving from N to S," and notes the asset took off from Muwaffaq Salti AB (OJMS) in Jordan at 301822Z and landed back at 311519Z after a 20-hour-57-minute mission. Full-motion video was exploited by DGS-1 and the report was declassified on 8 October 2025 by USCENTCOM Chief of Staff MG Richard A. Harrison under MDR 25-0094 through MDR 25-0099. Multiple fields (aircraft callsign, tail number, names, MGRS digits) remain redacted under 1.4a, 1.4c, 1.4g and FOIA (b)(3)/(b)(6).

Most interesting

The aircraft logged 20 hours 57 minutes total mission time, consistent with a long-endurance ISR platform (callsign and asset type withheld under 1.4a / 1.4g).
The UAP observation came after roughly four hours on station already spent following ground vehicles, scanning runways, and tracking individuals near multiple MGRS points.
Declassification will not lapse until 2047-07-31, a 25-year hold on the underlying source material despite the 2025 MDR release.
The same sortie tracked a convoy of one white pickup, one black pickup, and two white Bongo trucks carrying roughly 30 individuals to a suspected shooting range, layering routine counter-ISIS ISR with the UAP event.
