Yes we know, we've read them.

My question is, why do you have to make them so long?

I don't HAVE to make them so long, I'm just incredibly generous and I trust that people here can read a full paragraph without getting tired but maybe that's overly optimistic. I could start writing everything in the style of a Fox News headline instead, if that helps?

Yes, that would be a blessing if you could do that.

You wasn't lying when you said that you're "incredibly generous" were you?

A "high-altitude object" has been shot down over Alaska in the past hour, the White House has said.

Spokesman John Kirby said the object was "the size of a small car" and was over a sparsely populated area at the time.

President Joe Biden took the decision to shoot down the object, which was of unknown origin, Mr Kirby said.

It comes after the US shot down a Chinese balloon over its territorial waters last Saturday.

The US has shot down another unidentified flying object, this time over Lake Huron near the Canadian border, in what is the fourth such incident this month.

It was downed by Air Force and National Guard pilots on Sunday, Michigan Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin said.

"Great work by all who carried out this mission," she wrote on Twitter.

Washington has been on high alert since its military destroyed a suspected Chinese spy balloon on 4 February.

That balloon was tracked across the continental US before it was shot down off the coast of South Carolina. Officials recovered some of its debris from the ocean and said the balloon originated in China and was used for surveillance - but China denies it was used for spying.

Since then, American fighter jets have shot down three further high-altitude objects in as many days.

On Friday, President Joe Biden ordered an object to be shot down over Alaska. And on Saturday a similar object was shot down over the Yukon in north-west Canada.

Officials have not publicly identified the suspected origin of these objects. Both the US and Canada are working to recover the remnants, but the search in Alaska has been hampered by Arctic conditions.

i think it's the chinese testing the USA tracking ability of high altitude objects. When america spots them gives china a good idea of when to fire missiles and at what location

BBC News Text :
[The Daily Telegraph also leads with so-called spy balloons,
reporting that the UK will conduct a security review
"in the wake of the incursion
of Chinese spy balloons
into Western airspace".]
