Key moments

  1. 0:11 The sensor centres on an area of contrast (AARO).
  2. 0:20 AARO: the footage “appears to depict a kinetic interaction between two distinct areas of contrast, with the initial subject of the footage fragmenting in a radial displacement pattern that suggests a high-energy event”: the missile strike.
