Japan said Tuesday it “strongly” suspects three Chinese spy balloons entered its airspace between 2019 and 2021
. Three “balloon-shaped flying objects” were detected between November 2019 and September 2021, the Japanese Ministry of Defense said, adding that these were “strongly presumed” to be “unmanned reconnaissance” aircraft flown by China. The ministry said it had asked the Chinese government to “confirm the facts regarding this matter through diplomatic channels” and strongly requested that this not happen again. Beijing on Wednesday rejected Tokyo’s allegations.
US officials have claimed that balloon, which was shot down by a US Air Force jet off the East Coast near the Carolinas, was part of a large Chinese military surveillance program that has conducted at least two dozen missions over at least five continents in recent years. China, however, has claimed it was a civilian research vessel blown off course. Wang, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, accused Tokyo of falling in step with Washington with its new allegations.
