    EXPLAINER

    Research group maps 164 black triangle UFO sightings reported across the UK since 2021

    UFO Identified, a research group, has published an interactive map plotting 164 reports of triangular-shaped objects, drawn from nearly 2,000 sightings logged in the UK UFO Database between 2021 and 2026. That works out to roughly one in 12 British UFO reports describing a triangle, with clusters around Greater Manchester, London, Essex, Lancashire, Cheshire, Merseyside, Kent and West Yorkshire. Founder Ash Ellis says the aim is to build a public, searchable archive of accounts rather than to explain them. No government body has commented on the map, and the sightings themselves remain unverified witness reports.
