China threatens ‘countermeasures’ against U.S.

Published

Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Wang Wenbin made the remarks during a press conference

The People’s Republic of China threatened to take action against agencies in the United States responsible for destroying and recovering one of its surveillance balloons.

After being shot down by the U.S. government on February 4 over the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South Carolina—the surveillance balloon has been a topic of discussion daily for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in China.

However, the spokesperson remained vague regarding the proposed countermeasures.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Navy is collecting debris from the shot down Chinese spy balloon and the FBI continues to analyse it.

Since then, three mysterious objects were shot down over the United States.

Crews continue efforts to locate those downed balloons in northern Alaska, the Yukon and Lake Huron.

National Security Council Strategic Communication Coordinator John Kirby discussed the possible nature of the mysterious objects: “These balloons very well could be of a completely benign nature perhaps a commercial or scientific research is sort of a focus there.”

On Capitol Hill there are more questions than answers surrounding all of the incidents.

Bipartisan calls are growing louder for President Joe Biden to formally address the American people on this serious issue regarding America’s national security.

“The President needs to find the courage to get in front of the American public and tell them what he knows,” said Kansas Senator Roger Marshall.

Marshall continued, “The President can get in front of America and tell them firsthand that we’re safe, that everybody’s gonna be ok, that we’ve got this under control—but America needs a strong leader to step forward.”

Israel and Hamas agree to release hostages in U.S.-brokered deal, marking a potential turning point in Gaza conflict.


In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Israel and Hamas have agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages under a U.S.-brokered framework. The deal pairs prisoner exchanges with an Israeli troop pullback and expanded aid access, marking a potential turning point in the two-year Gaza conflict.

The agreement, set for approval by Israel’s cabinet, could pave the way for lasting peace if both sides uphold the terms. It follows weeks of negotiations led by U.S. envoys and regional mediators in Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye.

As international agencies prepare to facilitate aid and logistics, the world watches to see whether this fragile deal can hold and bring relief to millions affected by the war.
