The Pentagon has released a third batch of UFO, or Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), records, adding dozens of documents, images, videos and audio files to its public archive. The latest disclosure includes reports from federal agents, eyewitness footage and historical government records related to unexplained aerial sightings.

New UFO Videos Show Unexplained Orb Activity

Among the newly released material are six videos and 10 images showing unusual orb-like objects in the sky. One incident from July 2025 captured two bright lights moving silently in formation. Another case from October 2024 described a glowing, plasma-like sphere hovering above a pond for about 45 minutes before disappearing.

Federal Agents Describe Strange Encounters

Several reports focus on sightings made by five federal law enforcement agents in 2023. Witnesses described groups of lights moving together, sudden acceleration and bright orange objects appearing to release smaller glowing orbs. One witness compared the scene to “grapes being expelled from a basketball,” while another asked, “Are you seeing this?” during the event.

Historical UFO Documents Also Released

The files also include records from a government advisory panel formed in the early 1950s. While the group concluded that flying saucers did not pose a direct threat, it recommended reducing public speculation surrounding UFO reports. The latest release follows a government transparency initiative aimed at expanding public access to UAP-related information.
