'SHA256SUMS.asc' contains signatures which you can use to verify the file 'SHA256SUMS' which contains the SHA256 hashes of the Bitcoin Core binaries.

There are instructions in bitcoincore.org download page: Verify your download

It seems like you didn't download the keys of the signers before verifying the signature...

gpg2 --keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu/ --search-keys [key]
or download them manually, save them in an ascii text file and import them
gpg --import textfile.txt

You can download the list you'll need from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/master/contrib/builder-keys/keys.txt

I recently downloaded 22.0 from https://bitcoin.org/en/download but now it is unclear to me how I can verify the download. For example when I follow instruction online see https://askubuntu.com/questions/53519/how-do-i-verify-the-pgp-downloaded-signature-of-the-truecrypt-setup-file-with-se I end up with unsuccessful validation of the download.

I can't find any information on bitcoin.org on how to verify a download. Assuming the instruction I found is correct this means that SHA256SUMS.asc does not contain a signature for the file I downloaded. With other words, downloads cannot be verified at this point.

How do I verify a download with https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-22.0/SHA256SUMS.asc and https://bitcoin.org/laanwj-releases.asc?

Code:
[myuser:~/Desktop/bitcoin] [2.5.3] 2 $ gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc btc-022.tar.gz
