The U.S. has shot down a Chinese surveillance balloon off the coast of South Carolina.
The Pentagon confirmed: 'The balloon, which was being used by the People's Republic of China in an attempt to surveil strategic sites in the continental United States, was brought down above US territorial waters.'

Several assets have entered the area to recover its debris.

The balloon entered the Alaska Joint Operation Area on January 27, Canadian airspace on January 30, and the continental U.S. over northern Idaho on January 31.


The Pentagon has identified at least one other surveillance balloon currently transiting Latin America, the officials said.
“These balloons are all part of a PRC fleet of balloons developed to conduct surveillance operations, which have also violated the sovereignty of other countries,” the official said, adding that balloons have been spotted in countries spanning five continents in recent years.
