Drone Sightings Surge with 5,000+ Reports in New Jersey and New York as Lawmakers Demand FBI Answers
Dec 26, 2024, 08:46 AM
In recent weeks, a surge of drone sightings across the United States, particularly in New Jersey and New York, has prompted concern among residents and officials. Lawmakers are now demanding answers from the FBI regarding the origins and purposes of these drones. Reports indicate that over 5,000 drone sightings have been recorded in New Jersey alone since mid-November. Eyewitness accounts describe various phenomena, including glowing orbs and large crafts, with some individuals questioning whether they are witnessing drones or unidentified flying objects (UFOs). The situation has escalated to the point where sightings have been reported over sensitive military bases and densely populated areas, leading to public alarm and speculation about potential surveillance activities. Despite the increasing number of reports, authorities have remained largely silent on the matter.
