Senator Urges Shooting Down Mysterious Drones Over U.S. Skies
A U.S. Senator from Connecticut, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, recently made a bold statement regarding the mysterious drones that have been spotted flying over states in the mid-Atlantic region – they should be “shot down, if necessary.” In an interview on Capitol Hill, the senator emphasized the need for intelligence analysis of these drones and called for more aggressive action against the sightings that have been reported.
Senator Blumenthal highlighted the importance of taking action against the drones, especially if they are flying over sensitive areas like airports or military bases. He expressed his concern over the lack of information about the drones, including their origins and ownership, deeming it “absolutely unacceptable.” Blumenthal’s comments come in the wake of numerous reports of large drones flying over New Jersey and Connecticut, causing fear and concern among residents.
Investigation and Response
White House national security communications adviser John Kirby addressed the issue, stating that many of the reported drone sightings are actually lawfully operated manned aircraft. He assured the public that there is currently no evidence to suggest that these drones pose a national security threat or have a foreign nexus. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI are actively investigating the sightings and working with local law enforcement to determine the origin of the drones.
Senator Blumenthal’s Concerns
Senator Blumenthal’s office has called for a briefing on the drones, emphasizing the need for transparency and information sharing with Congress and the American people. He expressed his concern over the fear and terror that the drones are causing among constituents, particularly those living near airports and military bases. The senator urged Americans to be cautious when purchasing drones, advising them to choose ones manufactured in the USA rather than China, as he believes Chinese drones could pose a security threat to the country.
Conclusion
As the investigation into the mysterious drones continues, Senator Blumenthal remains committed to ensuring the safety and security of the American people. His call to action against these drones reflects the growing concerns and fears surrounding their presence in U.S. skies. It is essential for authorities to address this issue promptly and provide the public with the necessary information to alleviate their concerns.
