The latest incident comes after the recent incursion of a suspected Chinese spy balloon over US and Canadian territory, and after the United States shot down another unidentified object near the Canadian border on Friday.

The White House did not give details on the origin of said object but explained that it was different from the Chinese balloon that was shot down last week after flying over several US states.

The United States has accused the Chinese government of having developed, with the participation of the armed forces, a “program” of balloons for espionage work and of having already flown over more than 40 countries on 5 continents.

Due to the discovery of said balloon, United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken suspended a trip he had planned to Beijing.


China defends that the balloon the United States shot down last Saturday was a meteorological device that “deviated from its original trajectory” due to a “force majeure”.
