The RCMP says it has ended its search for an unidentified aerial object shot down over central Yukon last Saturday.

The RCMP says it is discontinuing search efforts because snowfalls have made it increasingly unlikely the object will be found and the current belief is it's “not tied to a scenario that justifies extraordinary search efforts.”

The U.S. Northern Command issued a statement saying the decision came after the U.S. and Canada “conducted systematic searches” of the area using a variety of tools but did not locate the debris. It remains unclear why China sent a suspected spy balloon into Canadian and American airspace and what it accomplished. The three smaller objects have also not been identified.
