UFOs Shot Down: Developing Story Feb 2023
The UFOs shot down this week have been described as silvery and cylindrical in shape, much like previous descriptions of Tic Tac UFOs like in this photo taken by the Department of Defense.
There have been reports of several unidentified objects being shot down by US, Canadian and Chinese Military at the beginning of February 2023. What is going on?
UFO Shot Down over Alaska
On Feb 9th, US officials announced that the military took down a mystery flying object over the Arctic Ocean near Alaska for safety reasons. Spokesperson for the National Security Council, John F. Kirby, gave a statement about the incident during a press conference.
Over the weekend, US Northern Command, Alaska National Guard, FBI, and local law enforcement joined forces to recover the object and figure out what it is. Due to harsh conditions, such as freezing temperatures and limited daylight on the sea ice, the recovery process is moving slowly.
The Pentagon's statement regarding the Alaskan incident stated that they don't have any further information on the object, including its capabilities, purpose, and where it came from.
UFO Shot down over Canada
Early Saturday 11th Feb, Pentagon officials announced that an object taken down over the Yukon was spotted on radar as it flew over Alaska on Friday.
American and Canadian fighter jets were sent to track it. Brig. Gen. Patrick S. Ryder, the Pentagon press secretary, said that monitoring continued as the object entered Canadian airspace.
The F-22 took it down using the same missile that was used to shoot down two previous objects, including the Chinese spy balloon a week earlier.
Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin spoke with Canadian counterpart Anita Anand on Saturday, according to General Ryder. At a news conference that evening, Anand described the object as cylindrical and smaller than the spy balloon that was taken down over the Atlantic the previous weekend.
UFO Shot Down Over China
According to a report by The Hindustan Times, the Chinese Military has seen a mystery flying object near Qingdao and they're getting ready to shoot it down. An employee from the marine development authority in Qingdao's Jimo district said the "relevant authorities" are prepping to take down the object. The same employee said that local fishermen have been warned to watch out for their safety.

Theories about the UFOs That Have Been Shot Down

The most prevalent theory about these UFOs is that they are Chinese Spy Balloons attempting to capture as much information as they can about US Military bases.
Chuck Schumer, US Senate Majority Leader, spoke to the media before the US took down another flying object on Sunday. Although he didn't mention that the objects from Friday and Saturday were Chinese, he told ABC that it's probably a bunch of Chinese balloons that have "been all over the world".
When asked about Chuck Schumer's comments, the US Department of Defense spokesperson said that the two objects he mentioned "didn't look much like" the original balloon and were much smaller, according to Reuters.
This would lead us to believe that perhaps these objects are not just more spy balloons but something stranger.
We could let our imaginations run wild with speculation but we will wait for more information to come forward before coming to a conclusion on this one.
