The FAA issued a notice on Wednesday temporarily restricting drone flights over parts of New Jersey until mid-January.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued temporary flight restrictions prohibiting drone flights over parts of New Jersey following an influx of sightings in recent weeks. The notice, which expires Jan. 17, 2025, said drone operations in support of national defense, homeland security, law enforcement, firefighting, search and rescue or disaster response missions are not included in the restrictions.
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said the White House, and more broadly the U.S. government, does not seem concerned about the increased sightings in New Jersey and other northeastern states. 'Look, I'm the speaker of the House. I have the exact same frustrations that you do and all of us do. We don't have the answers. The administration is not providing them,' Johnson said in a Fox News appearance.
The FBI official added that investigators have found no evidence of large-scale unmanned drone activity despite the recent uptick. 'We're doing our best to find the origin of that specific … those drone activities,' the official said. 'But I think there has been a slight overreaction.'
