(DCNF)—The mysterious drones sighted over New Jersey in December were authorized to fly and did not originate from a hostile power, The White House said Tuesday.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) authorized the drones to fly for “research” and were “not the enemy.” A brief panic ensued among the public and lawmakers over the mysterious drones in December, which was aggravated by hobbyists flying their own over the area, according to the White House.
