The US Department of Defense said that A Chinese ทางเข้าslotxo 168 balloon that was shot down off the coast of South Carolina this past weekend. It is part of a massive Chinese spying program that has been ongoing for years.

U.S. Defense Department press secretary Gen. Pat Ryder said similar balloons have flown over U.S. territory four times since the days of former Presidents Donald Trump and Joe Biden. It was not immediately identified as a Chinese spy balloon. But later intelligence analysis convinced the US that this was part of China's spying efforts. And try to learn more about the project.

One of the related incidents happened last year. When it was reported that a balloon was found over the island of Hawaii. The US Indo-Pacific Command detected an object high in the air near the Hawaiian Islands. and sent an airplane to intercept Before they discovered it was an unmanned balloon with no identification mark. But the balloon was not shot down.


Gen. Rider responded to a question about China's explanation that the balloon was used for meteorological research. “I can assure you this is not a civilian purpose, we are 100% clear on this.”

US Secretary of State Anthony Blingen said the United States had briefed dozens of countries on the matter. Blingen noted that China has been deploying balloons to five continents and that the United States is not the only target.
