Earlier, defence officials in the United States said to track a high-altitude surveillance balloon over the country.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken condemned China's decision to fly an apparent spy balloon and described it as "unacceptable and irresponsible".
Following the first spy balloon, Blinken decided to cancel his trip to Beijing, which would have been the first high-level meeting there in years.
