Mysterious drone sightings spark concern in New Jersey

Mysterious drones spotted over New Jersey; officials debate safety and origins, with some citing potential foreign threats.

Drones of unknown origin have been spotted in New Jersey over the past month, eliciting varying reactions from lawmakers.

The state’s governor insists that the drones are safe, while Congressman Jeff Van Drew suggests they may be part of an Iranian “mothership.”

Recent meetings with Homeland Security officials aimed to address the increasing number of sightings, particularly near military installations and Donald Trump’s golf course.

Drones are lawful in New Jersey but must adhere to local regulations and FAA guidelines.

Reports indicate some of the observed drones are SUV-sized, exceeding typical hobbyist drones.

‘Misidentified planes’

Although there are numerous sightings, officials note that many could be misidentified planes or repeat sightings of the same drone.

Governor Phil Murphy reassured the public that there is no direct threat to safety.

The FBI is gathering information from residents who may have evidence of the drones.

Some officials are advocating for tighter restrictions on drone operations, with one proposing a temporary ban.

Van Drew maintains that there is potential for foreign involvement, despite Pentagon assurances rejecting that possibility.

Legislators have met with DHS and state police to discuss concerns, but clarity on the situation remains limited.
