UFOs, or UAPs, are provoking American forces.

This is what a former top Pentagon official claims as he weighs in on strange sightings at U.S. military bases.

His name is Christopher Mellon.

In an interview with NewsNation, the ex-Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defence for Intelligence says that every year, unexplained objects are spotted over American bases.

“I’m sorry to say these kinds of incursions have been happening at bases all over the United States and overseas.”

“It isn’t as widely known as it ought to be,” Mellon notes.

But the former defence official believes spying was not the only reason for these mysterious objects.

Rather, he claims these strange incursions are wilfully taunting the U.S. military.

“This happened with some of our navy ships at sea, for example, where occasionally they’ve gone right up to the bridge of a ship and shone a light into it.”

“Like, just in case you didn’t know that we’re flying around your ship.”

“You know, we are in your face, and you can’t do anything about it,” Mellon concludes.
