Former U.S. military officials called for transparency on unidentified anomalous phenomena, stating Americans deserve to know the truth about UFOs. Retired Navy Rear Adm. Tim Gallaudet described seeing a video of a UAP that defied known technology during naval exercises. Former Defense official Luis Elizondo testified that UAP technology, held secretly by the U.S. and other nations, indicates the existence of advanced, non-human monitoring at sensitive military sites globally. The Pentagon maintains that most sightings involve conventional objects like drones or experimental technology.
