Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau confirms that another unidentified object that passed over North American airspace has been shot down.
He said the latest unidentified object “violated Canadian airspace” and was shot down over the Yukon in Northwest Canada.
Canadian Prime Minister also said that the unidentified object was shot down by a US F-22 special fighter jet and Canadian, and US planes are taking steps to find the downed object.
Accordingly, this is the third unidentified object shot over North America in the past week. The US military destroyed a Chinese balloon last weekend, and on Friday, an unidentified flying object the size of a small car was shot down over Alaska.
The Prime Minister confirmed that he had given the order to bring down the object and had spoken to US President Joe Biden about it.
The latest unidentified object flew over the central Yukon at about 40,000 feet and fired shots at about 15:41 local time on Saturday, Defense Minister Anita Anand told reporters.
She described it as a “small” and “cylindrical” object and said that further investigations will be carried out, and then she hopes to inform the public about it.
