Today, people in the New York metro area are reporting a growing number of drone sightings in their communities following a wave of mysterious drone appearances in the skies over New Jersey.

今天，紐約都會區的民眾回報，在新澤西州上空出現神祕無人機後，他們社區裡的無人機目擊事件也越來越多。

This is sparking significant concern among residents and local and state leaders.

這引起了居民以及地方和州領導人極大的擔憂。

The White House and the FBI says there is no evidence that the drones pose a national security threat or have a foreign connection, but

白宮和聯邦調查局表示，沒有證據顯示這些無人機構成國家安全威脅或有外國關聯，但

So so far, there are no explanations as to what they are, where they're coming from, or who is launching them.

所以到目前為止，對於它們是什麼、從哪裡來，或是誰在操控，都沒有任何解釋。

For weeks now, the drones have been spotted over homes, critical infrastructure, and sensitive government sites.

幾週以來，這些無人機被發現在住宅、關鍵基礎設施和敏感政府地點上空出現。

Today, frustrated lawmakers have gone from asking questions to demanding answers.

今天，惱怒的議員們已經從詢問問題轉為要求答案。

New Jersey can't become the Wild west of drone activity.

新澤西州不能成為無人機活動的蠻荒西部。

No state can become the Wild west of drone activity.

沒有哪個州能成為無人機活動的蠻荒西部。

I've made this very clear to the FBI, to Homeland Security and the faa, the agencies chiefly responsible for monitoring drone activity.

我已經向聯邦調查局、國土安全部和美國聯邦航空管理局，也就是主要負責監控無人機活動的機構，非常清楚地表明瞭這一點。

They must immediately disclose more information to the public.

他們必須立即向大眾公開更多資訊。

It's totally and completely unacceptable that you have all this drone activity going on that people are seeing with their own eyes.

你看到這麼多無人機活動在眼前發生，這完全、徹底是無法接受的。

The fact that the federal agencies responsible for briefing the public have not come forward in a clear way is unacceptable.

負責向公眾簡報的聯邦機構沒有以清晰的方式出面說明，這點是無法接受的。

There has to be some explanation to the public for all this increased activity, and

必須要向大眾解釋這些增加的活動，而且

Let's discuss these mysterious drones with former FBI Supervisory Special Agent Tom Adams.

我們來和前聯邦調查局督導特別探員 Tom Adams 一起討論這些神祕的無人機。

He actually helped Pioneer the FBI's counter drone program, used to respond to threats from unmanned aircraft.

他其實協助開創了聯邦調查局的反無人機計畫，過去曾負責應對來自無人駕駛飛行器的威脅。

Thank you so much for being with us, Tom.

Tom，非常感謝你來和我們聊聊。

First off, what do you think is behind these drones?

首先，你認為這些無人機背後的原因是什麼？

Do you think it's more likely to be some kind of concerted surveillance effort, an issue of misidentification or copycats?

你認為這比較像是有組織的監控行動、誤判，還是模仿者所為？

I think we're looking at a few different things.

我認為我們看到的是幾種不同的情況。

First, I do believe that there are probably some legitimate visual drone sightings by alert residents and law enforcement in New Jersey.

首先，我確實相信，在新澤西州，一些警覺的居民和執法部門可能真的看到了一些無人機。

Now, what these drones may be doing, if they're nefarious or not, we don't know they are or not, following FAA rules and regulations, that's up for debate.

至於這些無人機在做什麼，它們是否惡意，我們不知道，是否遵守了美國聯邦航空管理局的規則和規定，這還有待討論。

I think we're probably seeing some copycat drones flying up in the air with all the media attention.

我認為，由於媒體的廣泛報導，我們可能看到了一些模仿者在空中飛行無人機。

所以，我們看到的是這些情況的組合。

And I do also agree with the DOJ or the FBI and DHS assessment that some of these blinking lights in the sky are actually crude aircraft that are navigating the airspace.

我也同意司法部、聯邦調查局和國土安全部的評估，認為天空中那些閃爍的光點其實是一些正在飛越空域的簡易飛行器。

During many operations that I was involved with, as well as investigations into suspected drone sightings and critical infrastructure, it was common for things like planets Believe it or not, low Earth orbit satellites and crewed aircraft to sometimes be misidentified.

在我參與的許多行動，以及對疑似無人機目擊和關鍵基礎設施的調查中，像行星，信不信由你，低地球軌道衛星和有人駕駛飛機，有時會被誤判是很常見的。

But I think the big point here that we're seeing is that the vulnerability is being demonstrated that current federal laws and regulations really limit the types of tools and technologies that owners and operators of critical infrastructure can deploy, as well as state and local law enforcement.

不過我認為，我們在這裡看到的大重點是，現行的聯邦法律和規定，確實限制了關鍵基礎設施的擁有者和營運者，以及州和地方執法部門可以部署的工具和技術，這顯示了漏洞的存在。

So we haven't had any meaningful counter UAS legislation since 2018.

所以，自2018年以來，我們一直沒有任何有意義的反無人機法規。

So I think we're well past due for lawmakers in Congress to get to work and to shore up some of those vulnerabilities that we have.

是以，我認為國會的議員們早就該開始工作，來修補我們所面臨的這些漏洞了。

first, I'm curious about how officials can make the determination that there isn't a public safety threat if they don't actually know whether some of these drones may be nefarious or not or conducting nefarious activity.

首先，我很好奇，如果官員們不確定這些無人機是否惡意，或者是否正在進行惡意活動，他們要如何判斷是否存在公共安全威脅？

So you can't look at a drone or a blinking light in the sky and really determine whether it is or is not a threat.

所以你不能光看無人機或天空中閃爍的光點，就真的判斷出它是不是威脅。

I think that some of these suspected sightings, when you look at some of the videos, they look like smaller drones or they potentially look like crewed aircraft that may be landing at nearby airports mean that that area and corridor of the east coast is full of aircraft flying up and down the east coast to major airports into Europe and beyond.

我認為，其中一些疑似目擊事件，看看影片，它們看起來像是小型無人機，或者可能是飛機，正準備降落在附近的機場，這意味著東海岸的那個區域和空域，有許多飛機在東海岸上下飛行，飛往歐洲及更遠的地方。

So, you know, aside from any specific threat information or specific identification of drones or where they may be coming from, I don't think you can really say that they're a threat.

所以，你知道的，除了任何特定的威脅資訊，或對無人機的具體識別，或它們可能來自何處之外，我認為你真的不能說它們是威脅。

So I think there's still a lot of information gathering to be done so we can get some definitive answers.

所以我認為，還有很多資訊需要收集，這樣我們才能得到一些確切的答案。

So talk to us about these federal laws and regulations that are currently in place that make it more difficult, that hamper efforts to figure out what this is or what specifically do you think needs to change?

那可以請您談談目前有哪些聯邦法律和規定，讓情況變得更困難，阻礙了我們找出這些東西的努力，或者您認為具體需要改變什麼嗎？

Well, there's a couple big things that need to change.

There's a Senate bill that came out a couple of years ago, Senate Bill 1631, and

幾年前參議院提出了一項法案，參議院第1631號法案，

It was based on the Biden National Action plan for Canada.

它是基於拜登總統針對加拿大的國家行動計畫。

美國的計畫很大程度上也是基於那個。

There's two big things that I think can really impact this is.

我認為有兩件大事可以真正影響這個問題。

One is that owners and operators of critical infrastructure, as well as public safety agencies, should be able to start to use a wide variety of drone detection technologies, including some RF detection technologies that would otherwise be illegal for them to use, so that they can gather relevant information from those signals to determine where the pilot is, where the drone is, drone telemetry information, things like that.

第一是關鍵基礎設施的所有者和營運者，以及公共安全機構，應該能夠開始使用各種無人機偵測技術，包括一些原本對他們來說是非法的射頻偵測技術，這樣他們就能從這些訊號中收集相關資訊，來判斷飛行員在哪裡、無人機在哪裡、無人機的遙測資訊等等。

The other piece that needs to happen is right now state and local law enforcement don't have any authorities when appropriate.

另一件事是，目前州和地方的執法部門在適當的時候並沒有任何權限。

And you know, to use they don't have any ability to use any drone defeat technologies.

而且你知道，他們也沒有任何能力使用任何反無人機技術。

And, you know, the DHS and DOJ have been deploying these types of technologies hundreds of times since 2018 very successfully.

而且，你知道，國土安全部和司法部自 2018 年以來已經非常成功地部署了這類技術數百次。

So it's time to start evolving our laws so that we can successfully protect our critical infrastructure.

所以是時候開始修改我們的法律，以便我們能夠成功保護我們的關鍵基礎設施。

So I just want to clarify a point you just made.

所以我想釐清你剛才說的一點。

Would you say that you agree with Congressman Gottheimer, Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey, the soundbite that we just played.

你會說你同意來自新澤西州的國會議員 Josh Gottheimer，就是我們剛才播放的那段話嗎？

He was on CNN this morning talking about local officials being given the authority in certain circumstances to shoot drones out of the sky.

他今天早上在 CNN 上談到地方官員在某些情況下被賦予權力擊落空中的無人機。

Well, right now, current federal law, and

when I'm speaking of current federal law, I'm speaking of the Preventing Emerging Threats act of 2018.

當我說現行的聯邦法律時，我指的是 2018 年的《預防新興威脅法》。

That law specifically does not provide DOJ or DHS the authority to delegate that authority to any other entity.

該法律明確規定司法部或國土安全部無權將此權力委派給任何其他實體。

So right now, current federal laws are really handcuffing our federal agencies.

所以目前，現行的聯邦法律，真的讓我們的聯邦機構綁手綁腳。

So that's why we really need to expand our laws to allow for this type of activity under the right supervision and training.

所以這就是為什麼我們真的需要擴大我們的法律，在適當的監督和訓練下，允許這類活動。

Tom Adams, we have to leave the conversation there.

Tom Adams，我們得在這裡結束對話了。

Joining us now is CNN Chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst John Miller.

現在加入我們的是 CNN 首席執法與情報分析師 John Miller。

So look, obviously we don't have exact confirmation on where these things are coming from.

好的，顯然我們沒有確切證實這些東西是從哪裡來的。

I just wonder what your take is on what we're seeing right now and sort of how people should be approaching what we're seeing.

我只是很好奇你怎麼看我們現在看到的這些，以及大家應該怎麼看待這些情況。

Well, it's a bit of a mystery in that it has been remarkably persistent, meaning authorities in New Jersey tell me that they have had reports and sightings every single night except Thanksgiving, which is interesting.

嗯，這有點神祕，因為它一直持續不斷，也就是說，新澤西州的官員告訴我，除了感恩節之外，他們每晚都有接獲相關的報告和目擊事件，這很有趣。

But the possibilities are foreign actors gathering intelligence possibly on military locations.

但可能性是外國勢力正在收集情報，可能針對軍事地點。

If you recall, you know, almost two years ago, we had that Chinese military balloon that crossed across the United States with camera equipment and high resolution equipment on board.

如果你還記得，大概兩年前，我們有那個中國軍用氣球，帶著攝影設備和高解析度設備飛越美國。

Could it be drone enthusiasts who are playing some kind of aerial game?

會不會是無人機愛好者在玩某種空中遊戲？

Could it be US Government doing a Red Team exercise against air bases to test their response to drone incursions?

會不會是美國政府在對空軍基地進行紅隊演習，測試他們對無人機入侵的反應？

Right now what the White House is saying is that they have no evidence to believe it's a threat to public safety or aviation, no evidence to say that it is foreign, but

目前白宮的說法是，他們沒有證據相信這是對公共安全或航空的威脅，也沒有證據表明這是外國的，但

他們沒有說他們認為那是什麼。

And I think that gap is what's left people a little bit concerned over what's going on.

我認為這個懸而未決的問題讓大家對正在發生的事情感到有點擔憂。

And there is a military installation in the area, Picatinny Arsenal in northern New Jersey.

該地區有一個軍事設施，是新澤西州北部皮卡汀尼兵工廠。

And I talked to one of their people yesterday, and

they told me they had sightings, confirmed sighting, as they described it, back on November 13th.

他們告訴我，他們在 11 月 13 日有目擊到，他們稱之為確認的目擊。

顯然，我們現在已經過了一個月。

Are you surprised that either the government at the state level, local or even federal, hasn't come out with a reason as to why these drone sightings are happening?

你會不會驚訝於州政府、地方政府甚至聯邦政府都沒有說出這些無人機目擊事件發生的原因？

不會，因為我們以前也見過類似的事情。

We had a very similar set of incidents late in 2023 that the government acknowledged only in 2024 down around Norfolk, Virginia, over the.

我們在 2023 年底也發生過類似的事件，政府在 2024 年才承認，地點在維吉尼亞州的諾福克附近，在那個。

coincidentally, yesterday the Justice Department announced federal charges against a Chinese national who was arrested in Santa Barbara county for launching a drone over a space force base which was taking pictures.

巧合的是，昨天司法部宣佈對一名在聖塔芭芭拉縣被捕的中國籍男子提起聯邦訴訟，他因為在太空部隊基地上空發射無人機拍照而被捕。

And in their search warrants, they found out he had been researching the base and researching the rules and talking to other people about could he jailbreak the drone to make it fly higher and be less detectable as it went over the base.

在他們的搜查令中，他們發現他一直在研究這個基地，研究相關規定，並與其他人談論是否能破解無人機使其飛得更高、在飛越基地時更不易被偵測到。

So, you know, we know that there are people who do surveillance on military locations.

所以，你知道的，我們知道有人會對軍事地點進行監控。

We also know that there are drone enthusiasts who fly all over the place.

我們也知道有很多無人機愛好者到處飛行。

You've got 110 mayors in New Jersey and a lot of people who have sightings.

新澤西州有 110 位市長，還有很多人都看到了（無人機）。
