Seventh Batch of UFO Files Released by Pentagon; Alaska’s Aerial Anomalies Remain a Focus

On October 23, 2026, the Department of War announced the release of its seventh set of declassified files concerning unidentified airborne phenomena. This initiative is part of the ongoing Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE), aimed at enhancing transparency in government records related to unidentified aerial objects. Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell noted that more files will be disclosed gradually, with efforts for the next batch already in progress.

The newly released records include information about a black triangular object seen near a secure U.S. facility, along with historical sightings and research documents from past governmental investigations. Among notable recent events, an incident on February 10, 2023, involved a U.S. Air Force F-22 intercepting an unidentified object off Alaska’s north coast, first detected by NORAD on February 9. Recovery efforts yielded no identifiable debris, while another object also traversed Alaska before being downed in Canada’s Yukon Territory on February 11.
