Pentagon Denies Congressman's Claim Of Iranian 'Mothership' Launching Drones Off US Coast


Update (1523ET): "There is not any truth to that," Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh told reporters Wednesday afternoon, hours after Republican Congressman Jefferson Van Drew of New Jersey claimed on Fox News that Iranian drones were flying over New Jersey skies.

Singh said: "There is no Iranian ship off the coast of the United States ... and there is no so-called 'mothership' launching drones towards the United States."

"They were not US military drones," she continued, adding, "These are not drones or activities from a foreign entity or foreign adversary."

Good question.

Sigh.

Just a giant distraction?

Republican Congressman Jefferson Van Drew of New Jersey, a member of both the House Judiciary Committee and the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, told Fox News' Harris Faulkner around noon that government sources have informed him that mysterious drones in New Jersey skies at night originate from an Iranian "mothership" stationed off the US East Coast. 

"Here's the real deal Harris .... and I've gotten to know people. And from very high sources, very qualified sources, and very responsible sources... I'm going to tell you the real deal: Iran launched a mothership - probably about a month ago that contains these drones and is off the US East Coast," Van Drew said. 

Van Drew continued, "Know that Iran made a deal with China to purchase drones - motherships and technology to go forward. The sources I know are good." 

He emphasized, "These drones should be shot down," adding the military "is on alert with this."

  • Dec. 3: Mysterious 'Car-Sized Drones' Over New Jersey Prompt FBI Investigation
  • A resident of Montville, NJ, claimed one of these 'truck-sized drones' crashed on Beverwck Road. 

    This is all taking place in what is supposed to be some of the world's most controlled airspace, second only to Baltimore-Washington airspace.

    Since no one believed the aliens invading NJ narrative, we're back to Iran-China World War III.
