According to U.S. officials, the military shot down the balloon as it crossed over the coast of the Carolinas and into the Atlantic Ocean, the New York Times reports.

A suspected Chinese surveillance balloon was spotted drifting over the northern U.S. skies. The Pentagon has been monitoring the high-altitude balloon for several days, CNN reports.
“We are confident that this high-altitude surveillance balloon belongs to the [People’s Republic of China],” a senior defense official said, per the report.
Several methods have been used to track the balloon, including a manned aircraft, according to the Guardian, and was recently sighted over Montana.
While the floating object’s current flight path is headed towards “a number of sensitive sites,” Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Patrick Ryder...

President Joe Biden said Wednesday that it was “unlikely” that a missile that killed two people in Poland was fired from Russia, the Associated Press reports.
After an “emergency” meeting of the Group of Seven and NATO leaders, President Joe Biden was asked by reporters if it was too early to say whether the missile was from Russia. Biden stated that there is “preliminary information that contests that” and added that “it is unlikely in the lines of the trajectory that it was fired from Russia, but we’ll see.

With the highly anticipated folk horror Dogged currently doing a tour of the festival circuits, I had the opportunity to talk with actresses Nadia Lamin about developing the character Sparrow and her experiences making the film.
How did you get involved in the film Dogged?
My agent Jo Southwell, Aston Management. She put me up for the part of Sparrow and told me about the project. I read the script and I thought it was brilliant. It is one of those scripts that I read from front to back in less than an hour. I just read it all. Normally it takes me a long time to read stuff, so I knew that I really liked this. I love the character Sparrow so I went to the audition and that evening I got told that I had the part.
So, you instantly from the script had a sense that it could be a good film.
