Former Pentagon official Luis Elizondo has claimed that newly revealed government documents contain evidence of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) and alleged "non-human" materials dating back to the 1940s, according to recent statements.

Elizondo, who previously worked on Pentagon UAP investigations, described the materials as a "treasure trove" of intelligence spanning multiple decades. The claims suggest the U.S. government has maintained records of unexplained aerial encounters for far longer than previously acknowledged in public statements.

Separately, documentary filmmaker Dan Farah has stated that the FBI is currently leading federal efforts to investigate UAPs, particularly focusing on mystery objects observed near U.S. nuclear facilities. According to Farah, the bureau is coordinating with the White House on these investigations.

The statements come amid increased government transparency regarding UAP investigations. In recent years, military and intelligence agencies have released previously classified videos and reports documenting encounters with unexplained aerial objects.

Both the Pentagon and FBI have not immediately responded to requests for comment regarding the specific claims about historical documents or current investigation efforts. The government has acknowledged ongoing UAP research but has not confirmed the existence of materials described by Elizondo.
