Meanwhile, the [Uruguayan Air Force](https://www.fau.mil.uy/es/articulos/438-comunicado-n-1-2023.html) said it was investigating “lights in the sky” in the northwestern part of the country, and Chinese state media reported that there was an “unidentified flying object in waters near the coastal city of Rizhao in the province and were preparing to shoot it down.” Friday night, the Department of Defense announced that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and U.S. “Monitoring continued today as the object crossed into Canadian airspace, with Canadian CF-18 and CP-140 aircraft joining the formation to further assess the object.

Earlier Sunday, the Federal Aviation Administration put up a temporary Notice to Air Missions (NOTAM) closing the airspace above Lake Michigan. I'm glad the object was neutralized over Lake Huron and I'll continue pressing DoD for transparency,” Michigan Sen.

China says the balloon shot down by the US was an unmanned airship made for meteorological research that had been blown off course. That event played out over livestream. It has accused the US of overreacting by shooting it down and threatened to take unspecified action in response.

The flurry of incidents is due at least in part to an increase in military vigilance in the wake of the Chinese balloon. Northern Command and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) told reporters late Sunday. VanHerck acknowledged the military is perplexed.

"The Pentagon statements say the FBI is involved in the Canadian shootdown investigation — that implies a Earthly counterintelligence mission. US pilots have given differing accounts of the objects downed over Alaska on Friday. In simple terms, a propulsion system is a machine that produces thrust to push the aircraft around. The AP reported an official as saying that the UFO was flying at a height of 20,000 feet — lower than the previous UFOs which were flying at 40-50,000 feet. The origin and nature of the UFOs is not yet known. "I'll let the intel community and the counterintelligence community figure that out. The NORAD observed suspicious activity over Montana on radars and the US government restricted flight activity in the region and deployed fighters. However, it's known that the first two UFOs were cylindrical in shape. The DoD said this UFO is likely the one that was spotted by radars over Montana on Saturday but could not be intercepted by fighters. US President Joe Biden is in the loop and orders to shoot down the aircraft have come directly from him. The origin and nature of these UFOs is shrouded in mystery as scarce details are available in public domain.
