Pentagon releases 41 new UFO files including videos and images
The United States government has a special website where it shares pictures and videos of things flying in the sky that people cannot explain.
These are called UFOs, or UAPs.
Recently, the Pentagon, which is where the US military works, put 41 new files on that website.
Some of the files are very old, from the year 1950, and some are very new.
People from different government groups, like the FBI and the CIA, helped gather these files.
The files include videos taken by military cameras and special agents.
The videos show strange objects moving in the sky.
Some of the sightings happened in places like Montana, Colorado, Brazil, Sweden, Afghanistan, and the Middle East.
The President, Donald Trump, asked the military to share more of these files.
People are still trying to figure out what some of the objects in the videos are.
The Pentagon released a new batch of 41 UFO/UAP files, including documents, video and images, posted on its public UFO website.
The files were contributed by the Pentagon, FBI, CIA, State Department and Executive Office of the President, with the oldest dating to 1950 and the most recent to the current year.
This is the fifth disclosure since President Donald Trump signed an executive order in January directing the military and other agencies to release more UFO/UAP documents.
The files cover unexplained sightings in Montana, Utah, Colorado, Brazil, Sweden, Afghanistan, the Pacific Ocean and the Middle East.
One video captured by a 'U.S. Government Special Agent' in the western US shows two slow-moving 'black-hot' areas in infrared imaging, while another from a military aircraft over the Middle East in 2025 remains a mystery.
