Advocate claims ODNI conducted a successful UAP-luring operation

Jordan Flowers, executive director of the Disclosure Foundation, claimed on CBS News that ODNI conducted a successful operation to attract unidentified objects over a sensitive U.S. military testing facility during an alleged December 2025 incident [1]. The report links Flowers’s account to two released government records: an FBI 302 interview with a senior intelligence official and a written firsthand narrative by a serving senior intelligence official [1]. Those records describe a helicopter team investigating reported glowing orbs and unusual noises, followed by alleged encounters involving rapidly moving or splitting objects, formations of orange lights, and objects appearing near the helicopter and military aircraft [1]. The records establish that officials documented witness accounts and that the encounters were investigated, but they do not establish that ODNI intentionally lured the objects, that the objects were nonhuman, or that the observations constitute proof of a novel phenomenon [1]. Important limitations include the absence of an exact date and location, redacted facility and geographic details, reliance on witness descriptions and agency summaries, and the fact that the luring interpretation comes from an advocacy figure rather than independently verified operational evidence [1].
