The Department of War lists the originating agency as the FBI, with an incident date of October 2023 and a location of the western United States.[^1][^2]\n\n<img src=\"https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/061226/release_03/documents/FBI-UAP-D014_Digital-Rendering_Incident-1-1_Western-US-Event_2023.jpg\" alt=\"FBI-UAP-D014 Digital Rendering Narrative Statement 1-1 Western United States Event 2023\" className=\"my-4 overflow-hidden rounded-lg border border-border/50\" />\n\n## An Artistic Interpretation, Not a Photograph\n\nAccording to the release, this image is an artistic interpretation of a reported incident near a sensitive national security site in the western United States involving unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) over a two-day period in October 2023. The release states the rendering is based upon a first-hand description provided by a federal law enforcement special agent, as described in DOW-UAP-D079, and that the FBI prepared this digital rendering at the request of the Department of War in 2026.[^3]\n\n## Provenance of the Image\n\nThe key provenance point is that the rendering is a 2026 visualization derived from a witness account, not contemporaneous imagery of the 2023 event. Its evidentiary weight rests on the underlying first-hand description in DOW-UAP-D079; the picture itself is an illustration produced to depict what the agent reported observing.[^1]\n\n## What The Record Supports\n\nFBI-UAP-D014 supports the existence of a documented, first-hand federal law-enforcement account of UAP near a sensitive western U.S. site in October 2023, and shows how the FBI chose to visualize that account for the Department of War. It does not constitute photographic evidence of the phenomenon, and the rendering should be read as an interpretation of testimony rather than a captured image.[^1]\n\n## References\n\n[^1]: [Department of War PURSUE page](https://www.war.gov/UFO/#release)\n\n[^2]: [Department of War PURSUE data file (uap-data.csv)](https://www.war.gov/Portals/1/Interactive/2026/UFO/uap-data.csv)\n\n\n[^3]: [FBI-UAP-D014, Digital Rendering, Narrative Statement 1-1, Western United States Event, 2023 remote release asset](https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/061226/release_03/documents/FBI-UAP-D014_Digital-Rendering_Incident-1-1_Western-US-Event_2023.jpg)","readingTime":"2 min read"},"relatedRecords":[],"citation":{"canonicalUrl":"https://disclosdex.com/documents/2026-pursue-release-03-047-fbi-uap-d014-digital-rendering-narrative-statement-1-1-western-united","title":"FBI-UAP-D014 Digital Rendering Narrative Statement 1-1 Western United States Event 2023","publisher":"Disclosdex","retrievedFrom":"https://disclosdex.com/api/v1/documents/2026-pursue-release-03-047-fbi-uap-d014-digital-rendering-narrative-statement-1-1-western-united","license":"CC-BY-4.0"}}
