The Pentagon has begun releasing new UFO and UAP-related files as part of a broader transparency initiative backed by President Donald Trump. While officials said the public can decide what to believe, the Pentagon’s 2024 report found no confirmed evidence of alien technology or extraterrestrial life despite hundreds of reported unexplained incidents.
The Pentagon has launched a fresh wave of UFO and Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) file releases, saying the American public should be free to examine the material and decide for themselves what to believe.
The disclosure effort reportedly involves multiple US agencies, including the White House, NASA, the FBI, the Department of Energy and intelligence agencies, marking one of the most coordinated transparency initiatives related to UFO investigations in recent years.
Pentagon Pushes ‘Maximum Transparency’
In a statement posted on X on Friday, the Pentagon said previous administrations had often attempted to “discredit or dissuade” public discussion surrounding UFOs. It added that President Donald Trump was committed to ensuring “maximum transparency” regarding the files.
