Then upon what basis do you propose to ascribe EM-affective properties to them? Isn't it so they fit the observation and thus support the pre-desired conclusion?

However, in this case multiple eyewitnesses reported EM effects from a UFO.

They report EM effects. Whether they were caused by the UFO would require identifying the object and determining whether it were capable of causing EM effects. UFO "researchers" habitually conflate observation with hypothesis regarding causation. This is why they are not taken seriously.

I'd agree they may've been mistaken.

"May" is irrelevant. Without any proof of causation there is absolutely no obligation to accept their interpretation.
