Have you ever looked up and wondered what’s really flying above us? Residents of northern New Jersey have been doing just that for weeks now, as mysterious drones have been spotted buzzing across the skies—leaving thousands scratching their heads.
Here’s what we know so far:
- The drone sightings began in mid-November and have since captured the attention of residents, media, and national security agencies alike.
- Despite 5,000 tips pouring into the FBI, fewer than 100 have required further investigation.
- Officials are investigating the origins of these drones but have yet to provide concrete answers, prompting former CIA Operations Officer Laura Ballman to speculate they might be part of a classified U.S. operation testing urban detection or evasion technology.
But not everyone is convinced. Ballman, while suggesting a U.S. operation is likely, dismissed the notion that the CIA is involved, stating, “It is not their mandate to operate in the United States.”
So far, senior officials from the FAA, FBI, DHS, DOD, and the National Security Council are staying tight-lipped, calling the nationwide concern a “slight overreaction.” But the mystery remains: who—or what—is behind these enigmatic drones?
While officials continue their investigations, one thing is clear: the skies above New Jersey are carrying more questions than answers right now.
What do you think—is it a covert test, something extraterrestrial, or just a case of public paranoia? Hit reply and let me know your take!
