The Pentagon on Friday released a first group of previously secret files documenting reports of UFOs -- a move sought for decades by some Americans."These files, hidden behind classifications, have long fueled justified speculation -- and it's time the American people see it for themselves," Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said in a statement.
President Donald Trump directed US federal agencies in February to begin identifying and releasing government files related to unidentified flying objects and aliens, saying the move was "based on the tremendous interest shown."
