MORE THAN 20 DAYS INTO PHENOMENON, PENTAGON STILL HAS NO ANSWERS ABOUT ORIGINS OF MYSTERIOUS NJ DRONES
Drone sightings across New Jersey have unsettled residents for weeks, with no official explanations provided. Analyst Ballman suggested that the mysterious appearances of these drones could indicate a covert U.S. operation.
“Deducing the statements from [National Security spokesman] John Kirby that these drones are not operating illegally, coupled with several op-eds that have been out there in the last 24 hours about the need to look at our detection systems, makes me think perhaps this is actually a classified exercise to test either evasion technology or detection technology in urban areas,” Ballman said.
While Ballman expressed skepticism about the CIA’s involvement, she clarified, “I would be ‘shocked’ if the drones were related to the CIA, saying it is ‘not their mandate to operate in the United States.’” Additionally, she voiced concern about the lack of information from the U.S. government, stating that she was “troubled” by the ongoing silence surrounding the issue.
DRONE MYSTERY: NEW JERSEY HOMEOWNERS THREATEN ACTION AS GOVERNMENT REMAINS SILENT
Mysterious drones flying over New Jersey have sparked frustration and unease among residents, some of whom are threatening to take matters into their own hands if no action is taken by authorities.
In an attempt to address public concerns, U.S. national security officials held a briefing with reporters, during which one official described the nationwide anxiety over the drones as “a slight overreaction.”
The call, attended by Fox News Digital on Saturday, featured senior Biden administration officials, including representatives from the FBI, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the National Security Council (NSC), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Department of Defense (DOD).
Despite the high-level presence, officials offered little clarity about the drones’ origins, citing an ongoing investigation. The sightings began in mid-November, when the drones were first reported flying over northern New Jersey. Since then, thousands of residents have witnessed their repeated appearances, fueling widespread speculation and concern.
