Those briefings were continuing Wednesday, and the State Department has sent a cable to all U.S. embassies and consulates outlining the administration's case against China and instructing American diplomats to discuss these points with their host governments.

If they failed to detect them back then how do they know today that there were past Chinese spy balloons? That is a load of crap. Many people have seen and photographed this balloon, but no one spotted the others?
