Chilling declassified CIA file reveals aliens committed ‘revenge massacre’ after UFO was shot down

According to the report, Soviet troops shot down a flying saucer hovering over the Soviet military unit in Siberia roughly 35 years ago, and what happened next was truly terrifying.

In the document, summarizing a 250-page top secret file acquired by US intelligence agents, eyewitnesses said five aliens climbed out of their wrecked craft, combined themselves into one creature, exploded in a burst of intense energy, and turned 23 soldiers into solid rock.

One CIA official referred to the shocking battle as ‘a horrific picture of revenge on the part of extraterrestrial creatures, a picture that makes one’s blood freeze.’ 

The agency added that the ‘extremely menacing case’ proved the aliens who visited Earth possessed weapons and technology far beyond the US government’s ‘assumptions’ – suggesting they were already aware of the aliens’ existence.

The unearthed document, declassified in 2000, was recently the topic of the AI or Evil podcast, where host Josh Hooper revealed that two of the soldiers at the UFO crash site actually survived the encounter.

However, the 23 ‘petrified soldiers’ could not be saved. Their remains and the debris from the spacecraft were reportedly moved to a secret research base near Moscow.

An even more concerning detail of the CIA file is the description of the aliens reportedly involved in this massacre, who have been mentioned in UFO reports and sightings for nearly 80 years.

Congressman Recruits UFO Whistleblower to Support Investigation Into Secret Activities

On 1 April 2025, Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) whistleblower David Grusch will officially join the staff of Congressman Eric Burlison.

Grusch, a former senior intelligence officer with both the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office, confirmed in a statement to NewsNation yesterday that he will assist Representative Burlison and Congress in holding accountable those who have broken the law.

Grusch stated:

“I’m both immensely humbled and deeply honored to join Congressman Burlison and his amazing team of professionals in pushing for government transparency.” 

“The public is rightfully demanding to know the truth and it is my true privilege for me to serve the people of this country once again. 

“I will use all my expertise to support Rep. Burlison and help the US Congress restore full oversight while enabling the Legislative Branch’s ability to investigate and hold those accountable who have broken the law and lied not only to our Congress, but also to the Executive Office of the President, Director of National Intelligence, and Department of Justice.”

In an interview with NewsNation’s Blake Burman, Representative Burlison explained why he hired Grusch:

“I think that it’s frustrating to me that we can’t continue to get any further. One of the things that was highlighted to me is that we don’t have someone who’s an expert in this field helping us navigate the intelligence community….the thing is you don’t know which questions to ask. So how do you determine where to go when you don’t have the first clue?”

Representative Burlison, a member of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform and its Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, further elaborated on Grusch’s role, adding:

“He’s putting together a plan that we’ll be able to execute and then work through my office, to get some more information out through the committee staff.”

Burlison added that he intends to establish a direct line of communication with U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to support his investigations into UAP. He also confirmed that Grusch brings valuable connections of his own, including ties to the new Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.

Pentagon ‘still mystified’ as drone drama deepens

Objects exhibiting advanced technology continue to fly with complete impunity over sensitive military installations and critical infrastructure. Despite the Pentagon’s advanced imaging and sensor capabilities, the nature, purpose and origin of these enigmatic craft are unknown, raising an array of pressing national security concerns.

In interviews with “60 Minutes” earlier this month, two recently retired four-star Air Force generals and the Air Force commander overseeing North American airspace defense begrudgingly admitted that the “drones” that loitered in dramatic fashion over key military assets in recent years remain a confounding mystery.

Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.), chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, told “60 Minutes” that, despite being “privy to classified briefings at the highest level,” the “Pentagon and the national security advisers are still mystified” by the repeated incursions.

Notably, the objects are impervious to electronic jamming efforts, indicating that they are not off-the-shelf hobbyist drones.

On their face, these incidents pose an alarming intelligence and espionage risk. In the most brazen incidents in recent years, the unknown craft displayed bright flashing lights as they hovered over sensitive facilities and assets.

Such conspicuous tactics are the opposite of basic intelligence collection tradecraft, which calls for stealth. Once exposed, any foreign surveillance operation is not only at risk of compromise, but of sparking a major geopolitical crisis.

Despite this, “dozens” of unknown, brightly illuminated objects hovered and flew with complete impunity over a critical Air Force base for 17 nights in 2023. Ditto for a series of audacious incursions over sensitive American military bases in the United Kingdom last year. In those incidents, witnesses reported dozens of brightly-lit craft “hovering” and exhibiting extreme performance characteristics while evading detection and multiple advanced counter-drone systems.

These enigmatic craft also demonstrate baffling flight dynamics that surpass any known technologies. For several months in 2019, for example, objects with bright flashing lights swarmed some of the Navy’s most advanced warships off the coast of southern California, often well over 100 miles offshore.

In the most detailed publicly available footage of one of these craft, the perplexed crew of the USS Omaha watched their infrared video display as a spherical object moved against strong winds before descending slowly into the ocean. The sphere was one of many “drones” tracked on radar swarming their ship that evening. Meanwhile, sailors positioned outside on the ship’s deck recorded multiple objects with bright flashing lights hovering and maneuvering around the Omaha.

JFK advisor reveals US Navy secretly shot and retrieved ‘orb’ UFO during 1962 missile test

An ‘orb’ UFO was shot out the sky and retrieved by the US Navy during a 1962 missile test, a former top aide to four US presidents revealed. 

Harald Malmgren was a senior advisor to John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford.

The retired government official said he was briefed by top CIA and Atomic Energy Commission officials on a videotaped missile test that took place during the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, during which the shocking UFO incident occurred.

Malmgren’s daughter, economist Dr. Pippa Malmgren, herself a former Special Assistant to President George W. Bush, revealed the details of her father’s story on her blog last week, after the veteran presidential aide passed away on February 13 aged 89.

She said before his death, her father had recently decided to tell his full story ‘for the sake of history’.

Harald described a video of a missile test launch from October 25, 1962, in which a mysterious ‘white orb’ can be seen flying in circles around the rocket as it speeds through the air.

The missile was equipped with what Pippa described as ‘an X-ray machine in the nosecone’, designed to use radiation to disable an incoming enemy nuclear missile.

But the test missile’s intense X-ray burst appeared to disable the UFO too.

‘The X-rays knocked it out of the sky. The US Navy retrieved the orb out of the ocean,’ Pippa wrote in her March 18 blog post, recounting her father’s story.

And it wasn’t the first time an orb had been spotted chasing a US missile, according to Harald.

‘We called them ‘tagalongs,’ Harald said, according to the blog post. ‘We knocked a “tagalong” out of the sky.’

Pippa said her father was briefed on the incident because he was in charge of the budget for the missile testing program, as a top White House and Pentagon official.

‘Before my father recently passed away, he went on record explaining what he knew about all this because he felt it was important for the sake of history,’ she said.

Harald, who was active on social media site X even in his final months, alluded to the incident in a tweet last August.

’60+ years ago I was provided highest level classifications to lead DOD [Department of Defense] work on nuclear weapons and antimissile defense,’ he wrote.

‘Informally briefed on “otherworld technologies” by CIA’s Richard Bissell (who had been in charge of Skunkworks, Area 51, Los Alamos, etc.) but sworn to secrecy.

Was that a UFO above this Florida town Saturday? Shape-shifting object has some wondering

A shape-shifting, slowly turning object hovered high above Green Cove Springs on Saturday afternoon, leaving many to speculate about it.

The morphing, black object was high above just west of U.S. 17 and south of County Road 315, slowly heading south. It made no noise and was at least a few hundred feet off the ground.

At times the shape was like a spacecraft while it also looked like a turtle shell, a ball inside with white outline that almost looked like a mouth and teeth.

Burchett calls for government transparency on UAPs, spending: ‘We deserve to know’

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) called for the government to reveal what it’s spending taxpayer money on relating to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) amid growing calls from lawmakers for increased transparency on the issue.

“They’re spending tens of millions of dollars on this subject. And then they turn around tell us they don’t exist,” the Tennessee Republican told NewsNation’s Blake Burman on “The Hill” Friday.

Burchett stressed the need for greater government transparency on extraterrestrial life while discussing the recent hiring of former intelligence officer and UFO whistleblower David Grusch by Rep. Burlison (R-Mo.).

“I think he can help us ask questions that need to be asked, that should be asked, that maybe we’re not asking the right questions because we’re not supposed experts on this,” Burchett said of Grusch.

“I want to know what they’re spending the money on,” he later added.

The topic of UAPs has received greater attention from Congress in recent years, with congressional hearings in 2024 and 2023 diving deeper into whether or not government sectors are withholding evidence from lawmakers.

“They need to they need to disclose everything and do it now,” Burchett said on Friday. “America needs to know. We need to demand that of our elected officials. Quit joking around about little green men and flying saucers. We’re spending tens of millions of dollars on something that, goddamnit, we deserve to know. Give us the information.”

The Phoenix Lights: 28 years later, the mystery endures

On the night of March 13, 1997, thousands of Arizonans looked up and saw something they couldn’t explain—a massive, V-shaped formation of lights hovering in the sky.

Twenty-eight years later, the Phoenix Lights remain one of the most infamous UFO sightings in U.S. history, fueling speculation, debate, and ongoing scientific curiosity.

Among those who witnessed the phenomenon firsthand was Dr. Lynne Kitei, a former medical professional who was so profoundly impacted that she left her career in medicine to study the lights full-time.

“They have become the most witnessed, the most documented, the most anomalous aerial sighting in modern history, if not all of history,” said Kitei, founder of the Phoenix Lights Network.

Kitei recalls the day vividly, describing how two lower orbs appeared to hover motionlessly.

“It was just bizarre. Again, I’m a healthy skeptic, but I was seeing something that was so extraordinary.”

While some, like Kitei, are convinced that the lights were something beyond our current understanding, others believe there is a more earthly explanation.

Chris Impey, an astronomy professor at the University of Arizona, points out that the southwest sees an unusually high UFO reports—coinciding with the region’s large number of Air Force bases, frequent military flights, and clear skies.

“You know, the Southwest generates a lot of UFO sightings, and it’s not coincidental,” Impey explained. He says he tends to believe the more conventional theory that the Phoenix Lights could have been A-10 aircraft flying in a chevron formation, followed by military flares.

And sometimes, he adds, people may just be seeing the planet Venus.

“After sunset, you’ll see it low on the horizon, and with atmospheric effects, it might look like it’s moving or hovering. That’s a classic UFO sighting.”

Kitei, however, remains unconvinced.

“The impact it made on the witnesses themselves is so compelling,” she said. “It cannot be explained.”

The UFO Disclosure Hopes That Fizzled: How Momentum Under Trump Has Stalled For Now

It wasn’t supposed to be this way.

For some time, relationships had been carefully cultivated with members of the new Trump administration.

Lue Elizondo, Former head of the Pentagon’s UAP investigation program, AATIP (Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program) had even made multiple appearances on Donald Trump Jr.’s podcast

Key positions were filled by individuals who had previously advocated for greater transparency on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).

Notably, the newly appointed Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, even appears in a documentary film exploring what is claimed to be the greatest cover-up of all time—one involving multiple groups of non-human intelligence.

Under the Trump administration, it had been expected that a key appointment would be made within the National Security Council to orchestrate the disclosure of UAP information.

For once, we were set to see the full muscle of the White House backing UAP transparency.

After all, that had been the plan from day one of the modern disclosure effort, but under a President Hillary Clinton. 

But she lost. And so too, was her promise to “open the files as much as we can.”

The man who currently occupies the White House – who triumphed over Clinton – President Trump, has himself acknowledged receiving briefings on UAP.

When asked by podcaster Lex Fridman whether he would push the Pentagon to release more UAP footage, President Trump responded enthusiastically: “Oh yeah sure I’ll do that, I would do that, I’d love to do that, I have to do that.”

So far, there has been no public effort to release such footage, in contrast to the declassification of records related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—campaign promises Trump pursued through executive orders.

FOIA-Released Emails Mention Alleged Triangular UAP Photo; Former UAP Task Force Director Speaks Out

Newly released documents obtained by The Black Vault through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) under case 21-F-0299 reveal email exchanges within the Department of Defense (DoD) discussing a photograph reportedly showing a triangular Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP) emerging from the ocean. The FOIA request was originally filed in December 2020. Along with these documents, John “Jay” Stratton, former Director of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), has now spoken exclusively to The Black Vault about this claim, offering brand-new clarification that no such photograph depicting a triangular craft emerging from the ocean was ever received by the UAPTF.

The long-rumored photograph in question gained significant attention following a December 2020 article by The Debrief, which described an “extremely clear” image of a large triangular object with rounded edges and white spherical lights in each corner. According to the article, the photograph was allegedly taken in 2019 by an F/A-18 fighter pilot after the object emerged from the ocean and ascended vertically. The story quickly became one of the most talked-about pieces of evidence that the DoD was allegedly withholding, with references by public figures such as Luis Elizondo which fueled widespread discussion across social media.

The FOIA-released emails, dated December 3 and 4, 2020, show internal communication within the DoD discussing The Debrief article. In one email addressed to Susan Gough (her name is redacted in the “to:” line but not in the body of the email), someone (name redacted) from the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations (DCNO) office states, “Jay [Stratton] tells me the photo is part of the active investigation, so it would probably be withheld from release for that reason.”

From Farmland to Deserts to Mountainsides: Lesser-Known UFO Crashes from Around the Planet

Most of us, even those outside of the UFO community, will almost certainly have heard of the Roswell UFO crash in July 1947, even if there is debate as to whether it was an otherworldly vehicle that crashed in the desert in New Mexico. The fact is, though, there are many other claims of vehicles from elsewhere crashlanding on Earth, and what’s more, these mystifying and baffling events are not at all limited to the United States but are on record in locations right around the planet.

As is usually the case with such a huge subject, while we will not have time nor space to explore every alleged crash of an alien vehicle – even briefly – we will examine some of the most intriguing and thought-provoking, not to mention some of the most credible. Ultimately, what will become apparent as we negotiate our way through these remarkable and enthralling cases is that something out of the ordinary has been taking place around the world for decades, if not longer, and it could very well be in our collective interests to find out what that something is.

A good place to start is with an apparent legitimate case of a downed UFO that came to light through forged documents. It is one of several intriguing cases investigated by the late British UFO investigator Tony Dodd. The account was detailed in Dodd’s book, Alien Investigator: The Case Files of Britain’s Leading UFO Detective, and is one that Dodd claimed was at least as important as the more famous Roswell crash that occurred four decades previously. Moreover, as well as the wreckage, which was seemingly recovered by the South African military, the craft’s occupants were also recovered, each of which was still alive.
