A report of three orange lights moving in a triangular formation over Armagh is among the unexplained aerial sightings disclosed through a recent PSNI Freedom of Information release, according to the Northern Ireland UFO Society.
The account is said to relate to August 2025. It is one of at least one possible UFO sighting linked to Armagh in information obtained by the society, which said the records were released in March 2026.
What the Armagh report describes
According to the Northern Ireland UFO Society, the Armagh record describes three orange lights observed in a triangular formation. The available information does not identify the observer, specify the exact location in Armagh or provide an explanation for what was seen.
The same disclosure includes reports from other parts of Northern Ireland, including Randalstown and Saintfield. One account from Randalstown refers to a reported disc-shaped object, while other records concern unusual illuminated objects and claims involving alien abduction.
The release adds to earlier PSNI records documenting reports of unexplained phenomena across Northern Ireland. The information records what was reported; it does not establish that the sightings were extraterrestrial or confirm the nature of the objects and lights.
Who is the Northern Ireland UFO Society?
The Northern Ireland UFO Society, known as NIUFOS, is a non-profit organisation founded in 2013 by Christopher McMurray and Jamie Smale. The pair established it after noticing what they described as an absence of a UFO society in Northern Ireland.
NIUFOS says it provides a platform for UFO enthusiasts, researchers and others interested in the subject to meet, discuss reports and investigate UFOs and extraterrestrials. Although based in Northern Ireland, the society says membership is open to people of all nationalities, religions and creeds.
Its stated role is to investigate, review and publish UFO reports received by the organisation or found by its members. The group says it considers scientific and material explanations, as well as spiritual and metaphysical perspectives.
