Washington: The US says that the main sensors of China’s alleged spy balloon have been recovered from the sea.
A US military spokesman said in a statement that critical sensors of an alleged Chinese spy plane shot down off the coast of South Carolina on February 4 were found in the sea. Wreckage of the balloon was found in the Atlantic Ocean. Debris found at the scene included sensors, all electronic components and large parts of the structure.
According to US officials, the other 3 high-flying objects shot down by the US military have nothing to do with aliens.
Sensors from an alleged Chinese balloon shot down by a US warplane may have been used to gather classified information, foreign news agencies said.
China has rejected US allegations of espionage, saying the balloon was not for spying purposes. Relations between the US and China are strained after the Chinese balloon was shot down.
