"New Leaks Reveal More Chinese Spy Balloons"

TL;DR Summary
Leaked documents obtained by The Washington Post reveal that US officials were aware of at least three Chinese spy balloons, including Killeen-23, which traveled across the US in January and February. The intelligence community had questions about the balloon even after shooting it down in the Atlantic Ocean, as it had sensors and antennas that the government had not identified. The documents also reveal that the other two balloons flew over a US carrier strike group in the Pacific Ocean and crashed in the South China Sea. A member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard was arrested in connection with the leak and charged with violating the Espionage Act.
