The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) released a statement Wednesday in response to questions about a newly surfaced video of an alleged unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP).
What’s now been dubbed a “jellyfish” UAP was allegedly recorded by the U.S. military over a U.S. joint operations base in Iraq around 2018 and released by investigative journalist Jeremy Corbell.
According to Corbell, the object was officially designated a UAP by the Pentagon, and the footage was taken with thermographic/forward-looking infrared radar.
Sue Gough, spokesperson for the DOD, said in a statement that they “do not comment on the authenticity of alleged DOD material that may have been leaked.”
Gough emphasized the DOD’s commitment to openness and accountability while balancing the necessity to protect sensitive information.
“DOD takes public interest in unidentified anomalous phenomena seriously and is committed to openness and accountability to the American people,” the statement continued. “This commitment must be balanced with the department’s obligation to protect sensitive information, sources, and methods. “
The object, which does resemble a jellyfish, can be seen on video moving through a sensitive military installation before moving over water, where it began what Corbell describes as a controlled descent before submerging.

DoD statement smells like a psyop tease to confuse potential enemies. The whole thing does, for that matter. I am not saying it is that but it sure could be that. ABN
