JAKARTA - The United States (US) government has been inundated with hundreds of reports of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), commonly known as unidentified flying objects (UFOs) in the past year.

However, according to classified documents released by the US Pentagon on Thursday, January 12, about half could not be identified whether they were objects from an alien world.

The 11-page report, filed by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), reveals the Pentagon has cataloged a total of 510 reports of alleged UFO sightings.

Of these cases, 366 new cases were identified in 2022, while the remaining 144 were identified in a previous ODNI report observing UFO data, that was made between 2004 and 2017.

Of the 366 newly opened cases, 195 were initially resolved with relatively mundane explanations. Of these, 26 cases were identified as drones, 163 were classified as balloons or balloon-like entities, and six were labeled as airborne chaos, such as flying birds or plastic bags.

The findings match previous claims from Pentagon officials, where most of the latest UAP reports are most likely the result of foreign surveillance drones and chaos.

Another 171 cases are still uncharacterized and cannot be attributed, due to a lack of detail. In some of these cases, objects move in unusual or unexplained ways. Currently, the case is still under investigation.

"UAP events continue to occur over restricted or sensitive airspace, highlighting possible concerns for enemy aviation safety or gathering activities," the report said.

"We continue to assess that this may be the result of collection bias due to the number of active aircraft and sensors, combined with focused attention and guidance to reporting anomalies."

It should be noted quoted from Live Science, Monday, January 16, the report refuses to mention the possibility of alien involvement in any case.

On the other hand, the report also stated that no encounter with UAP was confirmed to have caused any adverse health effects for bystanders.

However, that contradicts a series of UAP reports released in 2022 but occurring in 1873, claiming several civilians suffered radiation burns, brain damage or accounted for countless pregnancies as a result of UFO encounters.

For your information, the US government has become interested in UFO investigations over the past few years, ever since leaked military footage of many unidentified aircraft moving in unusual ways.

In early 2022, the Pentagon established a new office specifically to coordinate and investigate UFO reports from US military personnel.

The office, called the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office has taken over 366 of the newly identified reports and hopes to receive many more as the government works to remove the stigma of reporting UAP in the interests of national security.
