Pentagon releases new videos of UFOs

The Pentagon on Friday published a new collection of materials related to UFOs, now commonly referred to as unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs). Among the released documents is a report from a military pilot who described encountering an object that was "unlike anything I had seen" during nearly three decades of service. The latest release contains 40 files, including 14 documents, 19 videos, four audio recordings, and three images. These materials were compiled from several US government agencies, including the Pentagon, NASA, the CIA, the FBI, and the Department of Energy. The files were made available on the Pentagon's official UAP website as part of an executive order signed by President Donald Trump earlier this year requiring the public release of such records. Read: Pentagon releases 1st batch of declassified UFO files Like previous disclosures, the new release combines mostly unredacted historical records with more recent reports and videos documenting unexplained aerial incidents. One of the most significant documents, provided by the Department of Energy, describes an unidentified object entering the restricted airspace above the Pantex nuclear weapons facility near Amarillo, Texas, in Sept. 2015. According to the report, two security officers pursued the object while the facility was placed under lockdown. The officers were unable to catch the object but stopped to observe it more closely. They reported that it was completely silent and that, even when viewed through binoculars, they could not detect any visible propulsion system. After hovering in view for about one to two minutes, the object continued north and left the area. Roughly half of the released files date from 2010 onward and include infrared footage recorded by military sensors. The videos capture unexplained objects in various parts of the world, including the western Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Middle East. One of the documented encounters took place over the Atlantic Ocean in 2020. The released files contain footage of an unidentified object that a Navy crew member described in a heavily redacted report as having a dark maroon appearance and measuring roughly 12 to 15 feet in height. Another report describes a 2019 sighting over the eastern United States witnessed by a military aviator and four other personnel. In the debrief, the aviator wrote that the object's flight behaviour was unlike anything encountered during 28 years of service with the Air Force and Navy. The object appeared below the aircraft and was moving rapidly in a straight line in the opposite direction. The aviator observed it for approximately 10 to 15 seconds before activating the recording system to capture video. While attempting to zoom in for a clearer view, the object moved out of the camera's field of view because of its apparent speed and could not be relocated, even after reducing the zoom level. A post-flight review of the footage suggested the object had a rectangular shape. According to the report, other experienced personnel who witnessed the event were also unable to identify what they had seen. The released video appears to show an object moving at a very high speed.

At least 32 miners dead after bridge fails at cobalt site in southeast DR Congo

A bridge collapsed at a cobalt mine in southeast Democratic Republic of Congo killing at least 32 wildcat miners, a regional government official said Sunday. The bridge came down Saturday onto a flooded zone at the mine in Lualaba province, Roy Kaumba Mayonde, the provincial interior minister, told reporters. He said 32 bodies had been recovered and more were being searched for. The DRC produces more than 70 percent of the world supply of cobalt, which is essential for batteries used in electric cars, many laptop computers and mobile phones. More than 200,000 people are estimated to be working in giant illegal cobalt mines in the giant central African country. Local authorities said the bridge collapsed at the Kalando mine, about 42 kilometres (26 miles) southeast of the Lualaba provincial capital, Kolwezi. "Despite a formal ban on access to the site because of the heavy rain and the risk of a landslide, wildcat miners forced their way into the quarry," said Mayonde. He said ...

Indian devotees splurge on jets, gold idols as Hindu temple opens

The private jet parking lots at airports near the Indian city of Ayodhya are full and the shops have run out of gold-plated idols, as wealthy devotees prepare for the invite-only opening ceremony of one of Hinduism's holiest temples. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Asia's richest man Mukesh Ambani are among the 8,000 or so attendees at Monday's inauguration event for the Ram Temple, which devotees believe is built on the birthplace of Lord Ram, a sacred Hindu deity. The construction of the temple, which began after the Supreme Court awarded the site to Hindus in 2019 more than two decades after a Hindu mob razed a mosque there, triggering deadly riots, fulfils a key campaign promise of Modi and his Hindu nationalist party.

Arab countries, Pakistan likely to observe Eid on same day

The International Astronomy Centre confirmed on Wednesday that the crescent moon of Shawwal will be impossible to sight on Saturday, March 29, across all regions of the Arab and Islamic world. This is due to the moon setting before the sun, with the conjunction occurring after sunset. As a result, observing the crescent moon, whether by the naked eye, telescopes, or other means, will be unfeasible on March 29. For countries requiring an actual sighting to mark the start of Shawwal, Ramadan will likely extend to 30 days, with Eid Al Fitr falling on Monday, March 31. However, in some regions where the conjunction occurs before sunset, allowing the moon to set after sunset, some countries may choose to declare Eid on Sunday, March 30, following traditional moon-sighting practices. Notably, a partial solar eclipse will be visible at noon on Saturday in parts of the western Arab world, including Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. This event serves as definitive proof that the cresce...
