Drone Minefield Hypothesis — The War Zone’s proposed alternative explanation for the reported “jellyfish” sighting over Iran: a static or semi-static screen of drones (possibly physically interconnected), deployed along a known transit route or near a sensitive site, functioning like a modern, flexible “barrage balloon.” This would not require true cooperative swarming autonomy, unlike the “one-to-many meshed networking” framing CNN’s sources used. Compared by TWZ to China’s historical use of balloons for similar site-defense purposes.
