China threatens “appropriate countermeasures” after downing ‘spy balloon’: footage shows how it crashes over Atlantic Ocean

The US Air Force shot down the alleged Chinese spy balloon that had been hovering over US airspace for the past few days on Saturday evening. This is reported by the Ministry of Defense. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has subsequently expressed its “serious disapproval” and has lodged an objection. An operation is now underway to collect and secure the balloon’s debris. Meanwhile, Colombia has also reported an object in the airspace that resembled a balloon.
