# Pentagon declassifies new UFO materials: from equipment malfunction over the Yellow Sea to 2025 incidents

The US Department of Defense has published a fourth major batch of declassified documents concerning Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). The publication, reported by RBC-Ukraine, contains detailed reports of military encounters with objects exhibiting characteristics incompatible with known technologies.

### Nuclear Plant Shutdown in Texas

One of the most alarming cases in the new archive was an incident that occurred on September 1, 2015. Near Amarillo, Texas, in close proximity to the Pantex nuclear weapons production plant, an unidentifiable object was spotted in restricted airspace. The situation required an immediate response from security services, which declared a temporary lockdown of the entire strategic facility until the circumstances were clarified.

### Speed Exceeding Tracking Capabilities

The document package also includes a 2019 report describing the observation of a US Air Force reconnaissance aircraft. A small rectangular object was detected in a prohibited zone. The craft demonstrated anomalous dynamics: it accelerated so rapidly that it instantly vanished from the military tracking system before operators could even lock their sights on it.

In the report, a pilot with 28 years of service in the US Air Force and Navy explicitly stated that the object's behavior "did not resemble any known terrestrial technology".

### "Apollo" Archives and New Footage

The public archive has been supplemented with unique photographs and official reports from the crews of the Apollo 14 and Apollo 17 space missions. These materials complement previously released data regarding Apollo 12 and Gemini 7 flights.

Researchers are particularly interested in the fresh video footage. A recording made over the Yellow Sea in 2023 captured an unknown object exerting a direct influence on equipment operation. During the 5-minute recording from the electro-optical and infrared sensors of a military aircraft, progressive image degradation and interference were observed as the anomaly approached.

### "Floating Brains" and 2025 Incidents

Another video, shot over the Atlantic Ocean in 2020, confirms the existence of objects colloquially known as "jellyfish" or "floating brains". The footage clearly shows an amorphous body with several thin appendages hanging downwards.

The most recent data in the declassified package is dated 2025. In the area of responsibility of the US Indo-Pacific Command, radars detected the appearance of a hexagonal, star-like object over the Yellow Sea, as well as recording an anomaly over the East China Sea.
