The Guardian reports that the British Ministry of Defense has decided to open its "X-Files" on UFO sightings to the public for the first time. This move comes in the wake of news that the French national space agency will be releasing its own UFO files in March.

According to the Guardian, the 24 files due for release include witness reports of apparent UFO sightings by both civilians and military personnel. Most of these were collected and filed by "a small, secret unit" within defense intelligence called DI55. Each of the 24 files, which date back to 1967, contain 200 to 300 reports of sightings along with internal Ministry of Defense briefings and correspondence.

A date for the release of the documents has not yet been set, but it is hoped to be within the following weeks. This should prove to be a welcome addition to the existing body of knowledge collected so far regarding UFOs and UFO sightings around the world.
