"Leaked Pentagon data exposes up to 4 more Chinese spy balloons"
Previously unreported top-secret intelligence documents reveal that US intelligence agencies were aware of up to four additional Chinese spy balloons, including one that flew over a US carrier strike group and another that crashed in the South China Sea. The leaked documents also provide the most detailed government assessment to date of Killeen-23, the Chinese spy balloon that flew over the continental US in January and February, and two balloons from previous years, labeled Bulger-21 and Accardo-21. The documents raise questions about the true capabilities of the balloons and the decision to let them fly over the US before shooting them down.
