What was reported
Two-page email chain in which an Information Disclosure Analyst (Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security) confirms that two 'tearline' summaries are approved for release at the UNCLASSIFIED level, including use of INDOPACOM as the area of responsibility. The unclassified tearlines themselves report a U.S. aircraft observing one possible UAP for 12 seconds on 10 April 2025 and another for 23 seconds on 11 April 2025, both at unknown altitude and speed, with no interference noted.
