The U.S. Department of Defence has released a second batch of declassified files on unidentified flying objects, as part of a disclosure effort ordered by President Donald Trump.
The material includes videos, documents and reports relating to what the Pentagon refers to as unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs).
Among the newly released material are videos showing luminous objects near Karaganda International Airport in Kazakhstan, a reported UAP over Syria, and four unidentified objects appearing in footage labelled as Iran.
Other clips capture objects moving near aircraft, across bodies of water, above cloud formations and over mountainous terrain.
Some of the footage has been enhanced or slowed down to highlight details, including apparent acceleration, possible shape changes and unusual movement patterns.
According to the Pentagon, one of the 222 released files contains 116 pages of records linked to sightings near a top-secret facility in Sandia, New Mexico, between 1948 and 1950.
The document refers to 209 reported sightings in the area, describing “green orbs”, “discs” and “fireballs” near the military base.
U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said the records had long fuelled speculation and that it was time for the American public to have access to them.
However, experts say the material does not provide conclusive evidence of extraterrestrial life or alien technology.
The latest release follows an initial batch of files made public on 8 May, with the disclosure process continuing under the Trump administration.
