Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau writes on Twitter that he ordered the shooting down of a flying object over the Yukon region of Canada.
– I ordered the shooting down of an unidentified object that violated Canadian airspace. NORAD shot down the object over the Yukon. Canadian and American planes were dispatched, and the object was shot down by an American F-22, writes the Prime Minister.
Canadian forces will now analyze the wreckage of the object, Trudeau said.
Shortly before, an unidentified flying object was observed high above Canada, according to local media. It has not been confirmed if this is the same object that has now been shot down.
– Having shot down the “object”
The United States also experienced similar incidents this week. On Friday, the White House announced that an unidentified flying object had been shot down over Alaska on the orders of President Joe Biden. What is not known about the object that has now been identified is related to the object that was shot down in Canada.
Last Saturday, the United States shot down a balloon flying over the Atlantic Ocean that was described as a Chinese spy balloon. China, for its part, has denied the information and claims the balloon was a civilian weather balloon.
