Mosul Orb Video twitter
A metallic sphere caught on camera flying over the Iraqi city of Mosul is reportedly being investigated as a UFO sighting by the US military and intelligence community.
The image, a still taken from a four-second video clip captured April 16, 2016, by a reconnaissance aircraft in northern Iraq, was shared by UFO researcher Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell and journalist George Knapp on the first episode of their new podcast “Weaponized” on Tuesday.
It is a military-filmed image, an intelligence agency-filmed image, and it’s called the Mosul orb,” Corbell said, noting the object was named after the Iraqi city where it was spotted.
This is in the UFO category within our intelligence community. This is an example of one of the UFOs that our military and intelligence community is looking at. It’s just one of many images,” Corbell said.
The Pentagon’s newly formed All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, has investigated hundreds of reports of unidentified flying objects over the span of several months, though none suggest clear evidence of alien life, according to a report released earlier this month.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence reviewed 366 newly identified military sightings of “unidentified aerial phenomena” — or UFOs. Twenty-six of those were found to be drones, 163 were “balloon or balloon-like entities” and six were “attributed to clutter” in the air.
