The United States Department of Defense has released another batch of previously classified files related to alleged UFO sightings, saying the move is part of an effort to provide “unprecedented transparency” to the American public.
The newly released collection contains around 160 files, including videos and reports involving what officials describe as “unidentified anomalous phenomena” (UAPs), the modern term used for UFOs.
Experts reviewing the documents said the materials include several unresolved sightings and strange aerial incidents, but stressed that there is still no conclusive evidence linking the cases to extraterrestrial life or alien technology.
In a statement accompanying the release, officials explained that the archived cases remain unresolved because investigators were unable to make a definitive conclusion about the nature of the phenomena observed.
The Pentagon added that while some incidents continue to puzzle investigators, none of the released materials confirm the existence of aliens or advanced non-human spacecraft.
The latest disclosure continues a long-running process of declassifying government UFO records in the United States, which first gained momentum in the late 1970s.
Donald Trump has now become the latest American president associated with the public release of UFO-related government files.
Public interest in UFOs and unexplained aerial sightings has surged in recent years following multiple military encounters involving unidentified flying objects captured by US Navy pilots and surveillance systems.
Despite ongoing speculation and conspiracy theories online, authorities continue to maintain that there is currently no verified proof of extraterrestrial contact.
