On the original directive

Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Files should include any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters.

On the scope of the first release

The effort spans dozens of agencies and tens of millions of records, many of which exist only on paper. The first tranche focuses on cases where the government has been unable to make a definitive determination on the nature of the phenomena observed.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, on the release

These documents had long fueled justified speculation.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, on the process

The Intelligence Community's declassification efforts were being coordinated with the Department of War, and the release was the first in an ongoing joint effort.
