USA: FOIA appeal filed with ISCAP for classified UAP report release
A researcher submitted an appeal to the Interagency Security Classification Appeals Panel after the Office of the Director of National Intelligence failed to respond to Mandatory Declassification Review requests regarding the classified UAP report sent to Congress in June 2021.
Background
Following numerous unanswered inquiries over several months, an appeal was lodged with the classification appeals panel known as ISCAP. The legal action targets the national intelligence director's office regarding delays in processing a Mandatory Declassification Review case. The request seeks the release of the secret UAP report delivered to Capitol Hill in mid-2021, of which only an unclassified summary was previously made public. The appeals body now holds authority to intervene and potentially compel the agency to expedite its review process.
