A new set of declassified John F Kennedy assassination documents includes some intriguing UFO updates - that have gripped the nation.

Now they include an excerpt from a 1955 cable the US Air Force obtained from 'three reliable US observers' who saw flying discs over the Soviet Union.

The description of the incident in the "Trancaucasus Region" details "two mound and circular unconventional aircraft resembling flying discs or flying saucers were seen taking off almost vertically one minute apart."
It goes on to describe the craft revolving and shooting "sparks or flame", before passing over the "observer's train".
The flying discs are said to have ascended before their speed increased "sharply".
The report adds: "After sighting, Soviet train men became excited and lowered curtains and refused permission to look out windows.
"US observers firmly believe these unconventional aircraft are flying saucer or disc aircraft."

"People say there’s nothing significant in these files?" Jefferson Morley, editor of the JFK Facts blog, told The New York Times. "Bingo! Here’s the guy who was reading Oswald’s mail, a detail they failed to share until now. You don’t have to be a conspiracy theorist to think it’s suspicious."

According to the New York Times, Mr Efron reportedly died three decades ago.
A June 30 memorandum issued by President Biden stated: "In the three decades since the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 (44 U.S.C. 2107 note) (the “Act”) was enacted, the United States Government has undertaken a comprehensive review of its records and has strived to make available to the public thousands of classified documents that provide a fuller understanding of the tragic assassination of President John F. Kennedy."
