 Pentagon releases new batch of UFO files showing unexplained UAP encounters, including military videos and eyewitness reports    The Pentagon has released another batch of declassified UFO-related materials, continuing a rolling disclosure of once-classified files ordered by President Donald Trump for public release. The latest drop includes more than 50 videos and documents involving unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), the government’s official term for UFOs, adding to a growing archive of material that has fueled public interest and debate about unexplained aerial activity. Among the newly released records are multiple military and surveillance videos showing unexplained objects in flight. One clip, recorded by a U.S. Coast Guard infrared sensor in April 2024, appears to show an object moving near an aircraft over the Southeastern United States. Another, labeled “Syrian UAP instant acceleration,” was captured in 2021 by a U.S. military platform and later uploaded ...

HONG KONG ACTIVIST JIMMY LAI TO RECEIVE SENTENCING FOLLOWING NATIONAL SECURITY CONVICTION. (PHOTO).


Hong Kong activist Jimmy Lai to receive sentencing following national security conviction
      
 Hong Kong pro-democracy activist and media mogul Jimmy Lai is scheduled to be sentenced on Monday following his conviction in a high-profile national security case that has drawn global scrutiny and highlighted Beijing’s tightening control over dissent in the territory.
Lai, 78, faces the possibility of a life sentence. He is one of China’s most prominent critics and has been a vocal advocate for press freedom in Hong Kong. International human rights groups and foreign governments have criticized the case as politically motivated, warning it signals a shrinking space for free expression in the former British colony, which returned to Chinese sovereignty in 1997. Advocates for press freedom say the verdict will have far-reaching consequences beyond Lai himself.
Lai has spent more than 1,800 days in custody, much of it in solitary confinement, raising concerns about his health. Hong Kong authorities maintain that he has received proper medical care and that his isolation was requested. He was first arrested in 2020, shortly after Beijing enacted a sweeping national security law following months of anti-government protests in 2019. Authorities argue the law was needed to restore stability and insist Lai’s prosecution is unrelated to press freedom.
The charges against Lai include conspiring to publish seditious articles and conspiring to lobby foreign governments to impose sanctions or other measures against China and Hong Kong. His conviction followed an 855-page verdict citing his interactions with senior U.S. officials, including meetings with former Vice President Mike Pence, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, national security adviser John Bolton, and members of Congress during the 2019 protests. Lai has pleaded not guilty.
Also scheduled for sentencing on Monday are six former Apple Daily journalists and two activists who had testified against Lai. Many of them pleaded guilty in hopes of reduced sentences. Lai had previously been convicted on separate charges, including fraud and unlawful assembly, and in December 2022, he was sentenced to nearly six years in prison in the fraud case.
This trial marks one of the most prominent applications of Hong Kong’s national security law, and observers say the outcome will send a critical message about the future of independent journalism and dissent in the territory.
