Pentagon Denies Iranian Mothership Theory, Finds No Evidence of Foreign Entity in New Jersey Drone Sightings
Dec 11, 2024, 07:19 PM
The Pentagon has stated that there is no evidence to support the claim that drones spotted over New Jersey are from a foreign entity or adversary. This statement comes in response to assertions by Representative Jeff Van Drew that these drones were launched from an Iranian 'mothership' off the U.S. east coast. Pentagon officials have explicitly denied the existence of such a ship and any so-called mothership launching drones towards the United States. Furthermore, the Department of Defense's initial assessment found no evidence of a foreign entity or adversary involvement, and there has been no request for assistance from other agencies. The military has not shot down these drones as they did not pose a threat to its installations.
