The Department of Defense’s war.gov/UFO portal hosts rolling UAP record releases under PURSUE, often with explicit language that analysts were unable to make a definitive determination. Redactions remain inside public packages; transparency and withholding share the same ZIP.

Topic dates

Release 05 (7 August 2026) and Release 06 (18 September 2026) are the near-term topic anchors. Status cited as a process/portal file pointing readers to primary packaging rather than rumor indexes.

Updates

  1. Update

    Logged 13 Oct 2026; confidence moderate. On 5 Oct 2026 John Greenewald (The Black Vault) published the Pentagon's reply, dated 30 Sep 2026 (FOIA 26-F-1892), to his 1 Apr 2026 request for the records behind five encounters on the House Oversight declassification task force's list of 31 Mar 2026: “Wiley 2X Zinc,” “Jacker 2X,” “Cactus 1X,” a Coast Guard C-144 infrared observation of 24 Apr 2024, and a Persian Gulf formation. According to two secondary write-ups that both worked from the letter image, AARO found responsive records but withheld them in full under exemption (b)(1), citing E.O. 13526 grounds for military plans and operations and for system vulnerabilities and capabilities. It also cited a (b)(3) withholding under 10 U.S.C. 130c, which covers certain sensitive foreign-government information. The letter also says responsive records are publicly available at war.gov/UFO, and UAP Globe matched videos for these encounters in the PURSUE catalogue, with no paired written reports. Caveats: the letter gives no inventory of what was withheld. “Withheld in full” applies only to the records responsive to this one request, not to UAP records in general. It's a FOIA decision, not a report on what Congress received. The ledger hasn't seen the letter itself at full resolution; no hosted PDF was found.
