After series of shootdowns by US, another large white balloon spotted over east of Honolulu in Hawaii

 

By India Today Web Desk: A large white balloon was spotted just to the East of Honolulu, Hawaii on Monday. At present, there have been reports via ACARS of several commercial flights flying over the region of a large white balloon located approximately 500 miles to the east of Honolulu, reported Fox News.

The altitude of this balloon is estimated to be between 40,000 and 50,000 feet.

It comes just days after US officials claimed that a previously downed Chinese “spy” balloon that was targeting the state of Hawaii was blown off course. However, there is currently no confirmation of these claims from Air Traffic Control or other US officials.

According to multiple pilots, they had sighted the object.

“Report of the large white balloon in the vicinity of 2639N15021W. Estimated to be between FL400 and FL500. The precise altitude is unknown. Advise ATC if an object is seen,” Fox News quoted and shared a picture circulating on the internet depicting a pilot in the cockpit holding a note.
