Under Mr Trump’s direct order issued two weeks ago, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has been tasked with releasing “files related to” aliens and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs). In a Truth Social post, Mr Trump vowed to disclose “all other information” connected to the “highly complex subject matter”.
The announcement followed days after Mr Trump accused Barack Obama of leaking classified details on extraterrestrials.
Mr Mellon, who served under presidents Bill Clinton and George W Bush, said the files are vast and include photos and videos far beyond the three Navy UAP clips he helped declassify in 2017.
He said: “There’s a significant number of videos from the same sources that were judged unclassified in 2018 – gun cameras on F18s, Forward Looking Infrared Radar videos – that have been withheld from the public.”
He named the Department of War, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the National Security Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration as all holding relevant material.
