Chinese balloon sensors recovered from ocean, US says — In this image released by the U.S. Navy, sailors assigned to Assault Craft Unit 4 prepare material recovered off the coast of Myrtle Beach, S.C., in the Atlantic Ocean from the shooting down of a Chinese high-altitude balloon, for transport to the FBI, at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek in Virginia Beach, Virginia, on Feb. 10, 2023.

The United States says it has recovered key sensors from the suspected Chinese spy balloon just over a week after the Navy sent divers down to salvage the wreckage.
