Americans scared the mysterious drones flying over homes and military facilities - WP

This situation has forced local and state authorities to initiate investigations, but there are no specific answers yet. About it writes the newspaper The Washington Post. According to representatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), there is no reason to believe that drones pose a threat to security.

However, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said unmanned aircraft had been observed near important objects, such as Arsenal Picatinny, and the golf club of former Donald Trump's former President in Bedminster. "I hope we will get answers soon," Murphy said, stressed that no threats to drones have been identified so far.

The FBI and the New Jersey police have been investigating the incidents for about a month, and the Federal Civil Aviation (FAA) has introduced restrictions on drones in Bedminster and Picatin flights at the time of the investigation. Although the use of drones in the United States is allowed for both recreational and commercial purposes, operators are obliged to comply with local and federal rules, as well as to have FAA certification.

It is reported that many of the drones noticed were much larger than standard models used for entertainment purposes. New Jersey Congressman Jeff Van Drew called these drones a threat to national security and suggested a radical decision. "It is necessary to act immediately to prevent the escalation of the threat," he said. "Whether foreign opponents or just a group of fans, we cannot allow unknown drones to fly uncontrollably in our airspace.

" Twenty mayors from Morris County turned to the governor with a letter in which they demanded that the full investigation and the origin and purpose of these flights, as well as their compliance with the existing rules, were demanded. The New Jersey Senator Kori Booker also sent a request to federal agencies, including the Ministry of Internal Security, the FBI and FAA, with a request to inform local authorities and reassure residents.

Republican state senator John Bramnik proposed to introduce a temporary emergency with a ban on the use of drones before receiving official explanations. The problem was discussed at the meeting of the Committee on Internal Security of the House of Representatives. The Deputy Executive Assistant for Aviation and Maritime Patrolling of the US Customs Service Kit Jones has informed that federal agencies have not yet been able to identify operators or drones.
