Flying objects hovering over the US

A Chinese spy balloon (which Beijing said was a weather balloon) has been shot down by the US military on February 4. This was followed by the downing of two unidentified flying objects on Friday and Saturday in US and Canadian airspace, respectively, reported CNN. According to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, both the unidentified flying objects that have been shot in the US and Canadian airspace "were likely also balloons".
