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-D021_Digital-Rendering_Incident-1-3_Western-US-Event_2023.jpg\" alt=\"FBI-UAP-D021 Digital Rendering, Narrative Statement 1-3, Western United States Event 2023\" className=\"my-4 overflow-hidden rounded-lg border border-border/50\" />\n\n## An Artistic Interpretation\n\nPer 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 over a period of two days in October 2023. The FBI states it prepared the rendering in 2026 at the request of the Department of War, making it a reconstruction rather than contemporaneous scene imagery.[^1][^3]\n\n## Provenance and Source Statement\n\nThe image is based upon a first-hand description provided by a federal law enforcement special agent, as described in companion record DOW-UAP-D079. The \"1-3\" label in the title corresponds to the narrative statement numbering assigned to that witness account.[^1]\n\n## What The Record Supports\n\nFBI-UAP-D021 illustrates a witness statement; it is not independent sensor or photographic evidence of the phenomenon. No imagery captured at the time of the incident, sensor data, or identification of the object accompanies this rendering. The underlying incident remains unidentified and unresolved.[^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-D021, Digital Rendering, Narrative Statement 1-3, Western United States Event, 2023 remote release asset](https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/061226/release_03/documents/FBI-UAP-D021_Digital-Rendering_Incident-1-3_Western-US-Event_2023.jpg)","readingTime":"2 min read"},"relatedRecords":[],"citation":{"canonicalUrl":"https://disclosdex.com/documents/2026-pursue-release-03-054-fbi-uap-d021-digital-rendering-narrative-statement-1-3-western-united","title":"FBI-UAP-D021 Digital Rendering, Narrative Statement 1-3, Western United States Event 2023","publisher":"Disclosdex","retrievedFrom":"https://disclosdex.com/api/v1/documents/2026-pursue-release-03-054-fbi-uap-d021-digital-rendering-narrative-statement-1-3-western-united","license":"CC-BY-4.0"}}
