Washington – An alleged Chinese spy balloon said to be the size of “three buses” was spotted over the United States’ airspace, the Pentagon said.
The development comes days ahead of the Beijing visit of Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
“The United States government has detected and is tracking a high-altitude surveillance balloon that is flying over the continental United States right now,” Pentagon Spokesman Brigadier Gen Pat Ryder told reporters here on Thursday.
