This is cellular-device footage submitted to AARO from Department of War material, tied by its uploader-defined title to a UAP in the vicinity of Karaganda International Airport in Kazakhstan. AARO assesses that the video was likely derived from a commercially available cellular device's rear-facing camera in February 2022.

A user uploaded the file to a classified network in April 2023 under the title "ADMINISTRATIVE REVISION: IIR 1777 J0032 22 Kazakhstan - UAP in the vicinity of Karaganda International Airport." AARO notes that many materials in this collection lack a substantiated chain-of-custody, and the source gives no identification for the object beyond the uploader-defined title.
