Drone Sightings Spark Concerns in East Coast

Recent drone sightings over multiple eastern U.S. states, including New Jersey and New York, have sparked widespread speculation and concern among residents. President-elect Donald Trump claimed that the government knows the origin of these drones but is withholding information, urging officials to disclose the truth. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas confirmed that the federal government is investigating the sightings, which have also resulted in temporary airport closures. New Jersey Senator Jon Bramnick criticized the government for not being transparent, suggesting there may be a fear of public reaction to the drones' true nature. He called on the Department of Defense to provide clarity and even proposed declaring a state of emergency to address the issue. Meanwhile, the FBI is deploying technology to assess any potential threats posed by these unidentified flying objects.
