NewsWeird NewsUFOsA new batch of over 200 files has today been released by the Pentagon – containing remarkable video of what appear to be spherical aircraft of unknown origin12:51, 24 May 2026US Department of War shares footage of UAPPresident Trump’s promise to release all of the Pentagon’s classified UAP files took another step today, with the publication of a number of new videos containing what UFO-watchers are calling the “best evidence yet” of extraterrestrial visitors to our planet.‌The first of the videos, described in the US Department of War release as “derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating in the United States Central Command area of responsibility in November 2020,” shows a mysterious circular object manoeuvring above a cloud layer in a way that no conventional aircraft could match.‌A lower-resolution version of what appears to be the same clip had previously been shown by ufologist Jeremy Corbell. UFO enthusiasts on Reddit have noted that this latest release contains material of markedly higher quality than the first tranche of material — almost as if the UFO data is designed to build to a climax.‌A second video, showing a small white object of indeterminate shape apparently “disappearing” as the camera focuses on it, has also attracted some attention.It's labelled "Syrian UAP instant acceleration" and was taken from an infrared sensor aboard a US military platform in 2021.‌Elsewhere among the 222 files released today is a batch of documentation relating to a series of reported sightings and investigations near a secret military facility in New Mexico from 1948 to 1950."This file contains 209 sightings of 'green orbs', 'discs', and 'fireballs' reported near the military base," the release said.The Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) has stated that so far no hard evidence has emerged that any of these incidents are of an extraterrestrial nature — however, Pentagon officials concede that many remain "unresolved" and cannot be explained.‌Also this week, so-called “Chinese Nostradamus” Jiang Xueqin has spoken out against the Pentagon’s UFO file releases, saying that “everyone knows they are complete nonsense — everyone knows there’s no aliens, there’s no alien technology.”In an interview with Kick, Professor Jiang said that the characterisation of these alleged alien sightings as “demons” is all part of an attempt to distract the American public from serious issues such as the state of the economy and the ongoing unresolved war with Iran.Article continues belowThe Pentagon has said that President Trump "is focused on providing maximum transparency to the public, who can ultimately make up their own minds about the information contained in these files," promising that more files will be released "on a rolling basis".Trump promised last month that some "very interesting documents" related to UFOs would be released by the Department of War "very, very soon."Choose Daily Mirror as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.‌RedditThe economyUFOs
