13 Feb 2023 – <\/em>US war planes have shot down three unidentified objects in North American airspace over the last three days, which is entirely without precedent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Yesterday an octagon-shaped object was reportedly shot down<\/a> over Lake Huron near the Canadian border after first being detected<\/a> some 1,300 miles away over Montana on Saturday night. On Saturday a cylindrical object was reportedly shot down<\/a> over Canada\u2019s Yukon territory by an American F-22, and on Friday an object \u201cabout the size of a small car\u201d was reportedly shot down<\/a> after being detected over Alaska.<\/p>\n

Unlike the Chinese balloon<\/a> that was shot down earlier this month which the US claims was an instrument of espionage, as of this writing there\u2019s still no solid consensus as to what these last three objects were or where they came from. While all three were found at high altitude like the balloon, the Pentagon is refusing to classify them as such, with the head of US Northern Command General Glen VanHerck going as far as to say it hadn\u2019t yet been determined how these objects are even staying aloft.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not going to categorize them as balloons. We\u2019re calling them objects for a reason,\u201d VanHerck told the press<\/a> on Sunday. \u201cI\u2019m not able to categorize how they stay aloft. It could be a gaseous type of balloon inside a structure or it could be some type of a propulsion system. But clearly, they\u2019re \u2014 they\u2019re able to stay aloft.\u201d<\/p>\n

VanHerck also made headlines for saying<\/a>\u00a0he couldn\u2019t rule out extraterrestrial origin for the objects.<\/p>\n

Local maritime authorities in East China's Shandong Province announced on Sunday that they had spotted an unidentified flying object in waters near the coastal city of Rizhao in the province and were preparing to shoot it down, reminding fishermen to be safe via messages. pic.twitter.com\/aQbUntwy4m<\/a><\/p>\n
