Summary
A USCENTCOM mission report documenting a UAP observation in the Arabian Gulf in 2020. Part of the five-report Arabian Gulf 2020 cluster (D3–D7), released via PURSUE Release 1 on May 8, 2026. D6 and D7 are the final entries in this cluster before the DOW-UAP numbering skips to D8 (Djibouti, 2025), indicating a gap in the public release of reports between the 2020 Arabian Gulf series and subsequent entries.
Significance
DOW-UAP-D6 is one of the final two entries in the Arabian Gulf 2020 cluster before the DOW-UAP numbering sequence jumps to D8 (Djibouti, 2025). The gap between D7 and D8 in the PURSUE release implies either that D8 was selected for higher-priority public release due to its 2025 recency, or that reports D8 through D10 (if they exist) were withheld.
