Pentagon releases sixth batch of UAP records
On Friday, September 18, 2026, the U.S. Pentagon released its sixth batch of documents, videos, and images concerning unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), commonly referred to as UFOs. This release follows a directive by U.S. President Donald Trump and is part of the ongoing "Presidential Disclosure and Reporting System for UAP Encounters," which has been active since May 2026.
The newly disclosed material includes records of mysterious objects spotted over Utah in 1952, alongside additional cases documented in Colorado. According to Pentagon officials, while this data has been compiled from various federal agencies including the FBI and the CIA, a portion of these incidents remains unexplained as investigators have yet to confirm the nature of the recorded phenomena. Previous batches of documents were released on May 8 and 22, June 12, July 10, and August 7.
Authorities maintain that investigation efforts are ongoing as they continue to examine data collected from encounters reported by defense personnel. The project aims to provide transparency regarding long-standing military research into these aerial anomalies, with further analysis of the gathered evidence expected as the official review process continues.
