Britain has announced a security review after several unidentified objects were shot down in the skies over North America.
Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said "the U.K. and her allies will review what these airspace intrusions mean for our security."
Transport Minister Richard Holden said Monday that Britain would deal "robustly" with China, which he called "a hostile state."Wallace's announcement late Sunday came after U.S. fighter jets shot down an object over Lake Huron on Sunday -- the fourth such downing over the U.S. or Canada this month. On Friday, F-22 jets shot down a "car-sized" object in U.S. airspace off the coast of Alaska, and on Saturday Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he had ordered a U.S. warplane to shoot down an unidentified object -- later described as a balloon -- high over the Yukon territory in northwest Canada.
