The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) said on Saturday that another "high-altitude airborne object" was spotted over northern Canada. The organization was unable to provide further details. Earlier today, the United States shot down another object flying over Alaska.

NORAD said that "military aircraft are currently operating from Alaska and Canada" in its support. "While we cannot discuss specifics related to these activities at this time, please note that NORAD conducts sustained, dispersed operations in the defense of North America through one or all three NORAD regions," it said in a statement.
