A high-altitude object tracked over northern Canada has been shot down over the Yukon, officials said. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he ordered the takedown of "an unidentified object that violated Canadian airspace."
"Canadian and U.S. aircraft were scrambled, and a U.S. F-22 successfully fired at the object," he tweeted.
Canadian Forces will now recover and analyze the wreckage, Trudeau said.
