The mystery surrounding reports of secret briefings given to a group of evangelical pastors about potential UFO disclosure has intensified in the week since the 12 June release of Steven Spielberg's film Disclosure Day. The production explores themes of government efforts to hide evidence of extraterrestrial contact. It coincided exactly with the Pentagon's third batch of declassified UAP files under its ongoing transparency programme.
Pastors who attended the closed sessions earlier in the year have shared warnings that such revelations could unsettle religious communities, and their comments have circulated widely online.
