Canada

Defence Minister Anita Anand provided an update after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said an “unidentified object” that violated Canadian airspace on Saturday has been shot down over Yukon. “To our knowledge, this is the first instance of NORAD downing an object in Canadian airspace, and the importance of this moment should not be underestimated. We detected this object together and we defeated this together,” Anand said.
