Usa news: Another unidentified object has been shot down over North American airspace, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has confirmed, reports BBC. <\/p>\n
He said the latest object “violated Canadian airspace” and was shot down over Yukon in north-west Canada.<\/p>\n
Both Canadian and US aircraft were scrambled to track down the object which Mr Trudeau says was taken out by a US F-22 fighter jet.<\/p>\n
It is the third object to be shot down over North America in the last week.<\/p>\n
The American military destroyed a Chinese balloon last weekend, and on Friday an unspecified object the size of a small car was shot down off Alaska.<\/p>\n
Mr Trudeau confirmed on Saturday he gave the order and had spoken with US President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n
“Canadian forces will now recover and analyse the wreckage of the object,” he wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\n
The latest unspecified object was flying over central Yukon at about 40,000 ft (12,000m) and intercepted at about 15:41 local time on Saturday, defence minister Anita Anand told reporters.<\/p>\n
She described it as “small” and “cylindrical”, but that recovery efforts are still being carried out to discover more details.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
