No doubt that UFOs exist says Pentagon’s alien hunter

THE former head of a secret US government programme claims UFOs may well have visited Earth.

Luis Elizondo said the existence of unidentified flying objects was proved ‘beyond reasonable doubt’ and lots have been seen.

Mr Elizondo led the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Programme from the Pentagon until two months ago.

The existence of the real-life X-Files department was only revealed last week.

He told the Sunday Telegraph he was ‘not at liberty’ to say if his team had examined UFO sightings in other countries including the UK. He added: ‘But we took a very comprehensive approach. Nothing was too small to investigate. In my opinion, if this was a court of law, we have reached the point of “beyond reasonable doubt”.

‘I hate to use the term UFO but that’s what we’re looking at.

‘I think it’s pretty clear this is not us, and it’s not anyone else, so one has to ask the question where they’re from.’

‘Hotspots’ for UFO sightings during the investigations included near nuclear facilities and other power plants.
