New York: Like the mysterious balloon shot down in the United States, a mysterious cylindrical balloon-like object was shot down in Canada as well, Canada’s defense minister said. An unidentified balloon-like cylindrical object flew in the air over the Yukon Territory in the north of Canada.
The Canadian military, which tracked this, shot down the unidentified cylindrical object last night using an American F-22 fighter jet. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has confirmed this information. A Chinese spy balloon that flew over the United States a few days ago was shot down, and now it has been shot down for the second time in Canada.
Canada’s Defense Minister Anita Anand said, ‘The object that was shot down was cylindrical in shape. However, nothing can be said about the origin of the object at present. The object was smaller than the Chinese balloon that was shot down off the coast of South Carolina a week ago. But it looked similar. An investigation is underway into the cylindrical object that flew at an altitude of about 40,000 feet,’ he said.
