Fox News: US Air Force shot down a Chinese balloon in the sky over South Carolina, searching for the wreckage is underway
The US Air Force shot down a Chinese-owned balloon in the sky over South Carolina off the southeast coast of the country. The TV channel reported fox news.
According to him, at the moment, searches are underway for the wreckage and their extraction from the water. Other details have not yet been provided.
Earlier it was reported that the United States sent fighter jets to shoot down a Chinese reconnaissance balloon in the sky over the Atlantic. The Military Observer Telegram channel specified that the movement of the ball is controlled by F-22A Raptor fighters. F-15s are also heading to the coast, capable of operating at higher altitudes.
The appearance of a Chinese intelligence apparatus over the northern part of the United States became known on February 3. Presumably, the probe flew from the Aleutian Islands through the territory of Canada, after which it settled over the city of Billings, Montana. Beijing urged Washington to stop speculating about the “Chinese spy balloon.”
