White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday the US has “no indication of aliens” after downing three unidentified flying objects — a day after a top general said he couldn’t rule it out.
The trio of shootdowns — off Alaska’s Arctic coastline Friday, over Canada’s Yukon Territory Saturday and over Lake Huron on Sunday — follow the downing of a high-altitude Chinese spy balloon Feb. 4 off South Carolina’s coast.
“I just want to make sure we address this from the White House,” Jean-Pierre said at the start of her regular press briefing. “I know there have been questions and concerns about this, but there is no — again, no indication of aliens or extraterrestrial activity with these recent takedowns.”
Authorities have not yet recovered any wreckage from the three unidentified objects or released imagery from the fighter jets that inspected and then shot them down.
The Pentagon and White House also have not characterized the three objects as balloons or other specific types of aircraft, but described them as smaller and lower-flying than the Chinese balloon, which was roughly the size of three buses.
