JAKARTA - The United States Department of Defense has confirmed that the leaked photos and videos of the unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP), which were taken in 2019, are indeed legitimate images of an unexplained object.

Photos and videos of the triangular object flickering through the clouds were taken by Navy personnel, Pentagon spokesman Sue Gough said in a statement to CNN.

He also confirmed that photos of three unidentified flying objects, one spherical, the other shaped as acorns and one marked as metal balloons, were also taken by Navy personnel.

"As we have said before, in order to maintain the safety of operations and to avoid disclosing information that might be of use to potential adversaries, DOD does not openly discuss details either from the observation or inspection of attacks reported to our training area or designated airspace, including attacks. it was originally called Steam, "says Gough.

Further explained by him, the Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force, which was formed in August to investigate UFO sightings observed by the military, has included this incident in the ongoing investigation.

The photos and videos of the United States Navy were published by Mystery Wire and on the Extraordinary Beliefs website last week. However, the photo has been circulating in cyberspace since last year.

There have been a number of reports of unauthorized and / or unidentified aircraft entering various military controlled locations and designated airspace in recent years, "the Navy said in 2019.

Last year, the Pentagon released three videos showing an unidentified aerial phenomenon, clips previously confirmed by the United States Navy to be real.

Separately, the United States intelligence agency has been directed to deliver an unclassified report on Steam to Congress in June.
