Drone sightings across the United States have prompted increasing concern among residents and lawmakers. The phenomenon, which began in mid-November, has seen over 5,000 reported drone sightings, particularly concentrated in New Jersey and Florida. The Pentagon has responded by approving a counter-drone strategy amid what it describes as an urgent threat. Reports indicate that many of these drones are accompanied by glowing orbs and larger unidentified crafts, leading to speculation about their origin and purpose. In New Jersey, residents have reported seeing fast-moving lights, with some questioning if they are witnessing UFOs rather than drones. Authorities have remained largely silent on the matter, leaving the public anxious for answers. The situation has escalated to the point where lawmakers are demanding explanations from the FBI regarding the sightings and their implications for national security.
