FAA Bans Drone Flights Over 22 Critical Infrastructure Locations in New Jersey Until January 17, 2025, Threatens Deadly Force
Dec 19, 2024, 01:35 PM
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has imposed a temporary ban on drone operations across 22 critical infrastructure locations in New Jersey, effective until January 17, 2025. This decision follows a surge in reported drone sightings in the region, raising security concerns. The ban restricts flights over various towns, particularly around sensitive sites such as power stations and military installations. Operators may still obtain special permission to fly drones in these areas, but the FAA has emphasized the seriousness of the situation, indicating that violations could lead to severe consequences, including the potential use of 'deadly force' in response to imminent security threats.
