A large number of “unauthorized drones” were seen flying over a major U.S. Air Force base in Louisiana, home to long-range B-52 bombers capable of carrying nuclear weapons, triggering a lockdown earlier this month.
The alarm was raised at Barksdale Air Force Base on March 9 following reports of “an unmanned aerial system” operating over the base and comes as there is more concern about threats amid the war in Iran.
