Verdict: TRUE
Verdict details
Confidence: 65%
Evidence quality: MEDIE
**What was analyzed:** A screenshot of a Facebook post by the publication Metro, reporting on a “Jellyfish UFO” observed near a U.S. military base. The post includes the quote “Only God and the government know what it is.” **What sources confirm:** Multiple credible news sources confirm the reporting of a jellyfish-shaped flying object (UFO) near a U.S. military base in Alaska on June 15, 2026, and its disappearance after a few minutes. Additionally, the quote “only God and the government know what it was” is attributed to witnesses in media reports. **Limitations:** Local forensic analysis identified the image (screenshot) as a composite image with inconsistent EXIF metadata and a low authenticity score, suggesting manipulation of the image itself. **Conclusion:** Although the basic information about the UFO event is confirmed by multiple sources, the analyzed image (screenshot) shows signs of manipulation, making the overall presentation misleading.

Recommended next steps
- Verify the authenticity of the original image (video or UFO photo) referenced in the Metro post.
- Look for official statements from U.S. military authorities regarding the UFO event.
Analysis limitations
- It cannot be determined exactly who created the analyzed composite image (screenshot) or what the purpose of its manipulation was.
- Forensic analysis confirms manipulation of the *image itself*, not necessarily of the original video/photo content referenced in the Metro post.
- The central claim is verified only through secondary media reports — among the cited evidence, no primary source (the named publication, court portal, original document) appears.
- If forensic analysis demonstrated that the screenshot is authentic and unmodified, the verdict could be TRUE.
- If evidence were found that Metro or another credible source intentionally published a manipulated screenshot, the verdict would be FALSE or MISLEADING, with a higher manipulation score.
