The Pentagon releases another batch of declassified records related to reported UFOs, now categorized by the government as unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP). Multiple outlets report the new tranche is published on Friday as part of a rolling release of once-classified material ordered by President Donald Trump. CBS News and other coverage describe the package as including dozens of previously unseen files, with CBS reporting 64 files in the latest batch. These records include more than 50 videos, along with supporting documents and some audio files. CBS also says the materials cover findings ranging from the 1940s to roughly six months before the release.
Euronews and other outlets characterize the footage as showing unidentified aerial activity, including examples of military video. Euronews also notes that, while the Pentagon says the release is intended to provide “unprecedented transparency,” the materials do not provide evidence of alien life. Overall, the reports align that the Department of Defense is continuing to publish additional UAP-related materials through the same declassification initiative, with this second installment following an earlier batch released two weeks prior.
