New York Governor Kathy Hochul recently addressed concerns raised by residents regarding unidentified drones flying in the skies at night. Governor Hochul reassured the public that there is currently no evidence to suggest that these drones pose a public safety or national security threat. She stated that the state is working in collaboration with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security to ensure the safety of New Yorkers.
The source of these drones remains unknown, and there is uncertainty as to whether all the flying objects are drones or manned aircraft. Experts have pointed out that the presence of navigation lights on these objects indicates that the operators are not attempting to conceal them.
