President Trump’s February 2026 directive directing federal agencies to identify and release records on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), extraterrestrial matters, and related historical documents has driven ongoing declassification through the Department of War and Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Multiple tranches of files, videos, and reports have already been posted publicly on a rolling schedule since the initial May 8 release, with a fourth batch issued in July 2026. Congressional interest from members pushing greater transparency, combined with the administration’s stated commitment to interagency review of decades-old records, continues to shape expectations. Further batches remain scheduled as reviews progress, though the pace depends on coordination across agencies handling sensitive national security materials.
