Something unusual was filmed over Tehran — and then a second video appeared.
On 20 September 2026, footage began circulating online showing a strange formation of lights over the Iranian capital.
The first video appears to show a large curved or V-shaped formation moving amongst the clouds.
Then another recording emerged, apparently filmed from a different location in Tehran.
If these genuinely are independent recordings of the same object, this becomes considerably more interesting.
But there are also some major unanswered questions.In this episode of UAP Files Podcast, I examine the footage, the reported location and time, aircraft operating around Tehran, the possibility of AI-generated video, and claims that what we're seeing is simply an illuminated kite.
There are reasons to be cautious.We don't currently have the original RAW footage or metadata, precise coordinates for both cameras, or enough information to establish conclusively that both videos show the same object.
And while the lighting has characteristics that look decidedly human-made, its apparent size, altitude and visibility around the cloud layer raise further questions.
There's also an intriguing historical comparison.
During the Hudson Valley UFO wave of the 1980s, thousands of witnesses reported large V-shaped and boomerang-like formations of lights moving slowly through the night sky — sometimes apparently making very little noise.
Some of the imagery bears a striking visual resemblance to what has now been filmed over Tehran.
That doesn't mean they're connected.And it certainly doesn't mean we're looking at non-human technology.
So what is it? UFO? Aircraft? Drone formation? Illuminated kite? Something else entirely?
Watch the footage, look at the evidence and make up your own mind.If you've found another angle, original upload or additional information about these videos, please link it in the comments.
