E.T. drone home?
An airport in Turkey was forced to suspend operations after a mysterious unidentified flying object was spotted in the sky.
The incident occurred on Tuesday, Feb. 18, at 10 p.m. after pilots spotted the UFO traveling near Gaziantep Airport in Gaziantep at an altitude of approximately 10,000 feet, the Mirror reported.
Alarmed, they radioed the control tower, prompting the air hub to ground all flights for an hour while they tried to identify the mystery craft — which apparently did not appear on the radar, according to local outlets.
Following their investigation, airport security concluded that the UFO was likely a drone being piloted without permission. The airport subsequently resumed operations at around 11 p.m.

In 2024, Enigma Labs — an NYC-based app that uses crowdsourcing tech to identify “unidentified aerial phenomena” (UAPs) — received a total of 22,000 sightings of unmanned aircraft with most concentrated in the Northeast.
A staggering 154 were reported last month alone — including sightings in Hoboken and Stockton, New Jersey.
Over half of reports to Enigma described the objects “hovering” for extended periods, while 25% claimed that the objects were traveling in swarms of five or more.
Federal officials dismissed the Garden State sightings as misidentified planes approaching the area’s airports, but civilian drone experts believed there was more at play.
“It’s gotta be military or some sort of government entity,” declared Hayley Connelly, who runs North Jersey Drone Shots with her husband and is an authority on the civilian market.
The pair told The Post the drones appeared to be outfitted with cutting-edge technology that is not available to civilians, including extremely long battery life, weather resistance and immense size for the altitudes they were flying.
