PENTAGON TO FORM NEW GROUP TO INVESTIGAT­E UFOS

-

The U.S. Department of Defense says it will establish a new group to investigat­e reports on the presence of UFOS in restricted airspace. The group’s formation comes after the government released a report in June, encompassi­ng 144 observatio­ns, which said there was a lack of data to determine the nature of mysterious flying objects. The new group, Airborne Object Identifica­tion and Management Synchroniz­ation Group, will be overseen by the Under Secretary Of Defense for Intelligen­ce, the director of the Joint Staff and officials from the Office of the Director of National Intelligen­ce. Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks said in a separate statement the presence of unidentifi­ed aerial phenomenon in restricted airspace poses a potential safety of flight risk to aircrews and raises potential national security concerns.
