The Pentagon announced that it has begun releasing government files on UFOs after President Donald Trump directed agencies to identify and declassify them.

The files will be posted on a rolling basis on a new federal government website, the Department of Defense wrote Friday in a post on X. The effort will be a collaboration among entities including the White House, NASA, the FBI, the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Energy and others, according to the announcement.
