US fighter jet shoots down 'unidentified object' over Canada
  • last year
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says an 'unidentified object' has been shot down over Canada.
Trudeau said he gave the order, which was carried out by a US fighter jet over the Yukon region of northwestern Canada. It's the third time a high-altitude object has been shot down over North America in just over a week. Last Saturday, the US brought down a Chinese balloon it said was being used for spying.
And on Friday, it shot down another unidentified object over Alaska. Canada's defense minister says while little is known about the latest object to be shot down, it will be fully investigated.
