NJ Mystery Drones Linked to Iranian Mothership Offshore, Says Van Drew
New Jersey Congressman Jeff Van Drew has raised alarms about unidentified drones reportedly linked to an Iranian “mothership” stationed off the East Coast.
During an interview on Fox News, Van Drew alleged that these drones were not random occurrences but part of a coordinated operation originating from an Iranian vessel. “I’m going to tell you the real deal. Iran launched a mothership that contains these drones,” Van Drew stated.
He claimed the mothership is positioned off the East Coast, but details about its exact location remain vague. Van Drew did not disclose the sources of his information but insisted they were credible.
“Very high sources, very qualified sources, very responsible sources,” he said, adding that he did not make the claims lightly.
The lack of specific information has left some New Jersey residents unsettled, fueling speculation and concern online. Comments on social media reflected the growing unease.
David Abate posted, “If this is true and we let Iran invade our ‘protected’ airspace for three weeks surveying and documenting, I want to know how our military allowed this.” Rob Robinson bluntly asked, “Are we at war?”
As of now, no government agency has confirmed the existence of an Iranian mothership or the alleged link to the drones.
The Pentagon and Department of Homeland Security have yet to release statements addressing Van Drew’s claims.
The first drone sightings took place on November 21st in Morris, Passaic, Bergen and Hunterdon counties.
People first noticed them due to how they were flying and their speed. Flying lower than typical planes but were as large as SUVs that could turn on a dime. In areas that people typically see aircraft, these strange objects stuck out like a sore thumb.

These drones have now bee seen almost all over New Jersey with the exception of South Jersey which lead people to wonder why they were only staying mostly up North.
Without many answers, there have been committee meetings about the issues and now the President of the United States have been brought into the fold.
While we were told in the past that these drones were nothing to worry about, Van Dan said that these drones should be shot down adding that “the military is on full alert with this.”
The mystery of the drones over New Jersey continues to raise questions, leaving residents and officials alike searching for answers.
