As big as small cars – the US shot down a flying object over Alaska

Date:

A “high-altitude object” was shot down over Alaska in the past hour, according to the White House. US President Joe Biden himself made the decision to shoot down the object, whose origin is still unknown, a statement said.

Less than a week after shooting down a Chinese spy balloon, the US has downed another flying object in its skies. White House spokesman John Kirby said the object was “the size of a small car” and was over a sparsely populated area at the time.

President Joe Biden made the decision to shoot down the object, whose origin is unknown, Kirby said. It flew at an altitude of about 40,000 feet (12,192 meters), endangering civil air traffic, Kirby continued. He cannot yet say anything about the origin of the now shot down flying object.
