AI-Generated Summary

TL;DR

This is a declassified Spanish Air Force file regarding a 1980 UFO sighting in the Canary Islands. The military concluded that the case was never investigated and was incorrectly classified as secret.

This document is a declassified file (Number 801120/21) from the Spanish Air Force's Central Library regarding a reported sighting of strange phenomena in the Canary Islands on November 20 and 21, 1980. The file consists primarily of a press clipping from the newspaper 'El Día', which reported on red and yellowish lights seen on the horizon over a calm sea. The official assessment by the Intelligence Section of the Air Operational Command (MOA) concludes that the case was only ever reported in the press and never subjected to an official military investigation. Consequently, the intelligence officer determined that the file should not have been classified as secret and was erroneously included in the list of files to be declassified. The document also includes an unrelated press clipping about a 'strange being' reported in Portugal in 1959, which appears to have been included in the file archive by mistake or as part of a broader collection of anomalous reports.

Es obvio que este caso, reflejado únicamente en la prensa y que no tiene investigación posterior por parte del Ejército del Aire, no debiera haber aparecido en el archivo secreto ni tan siquiera, debió de haberse incluido entre la lista de Expedientes a desclasificar.
