The Wall Street Journal said on Wednesday 6/28, quoting US officials, that an analysis conducted by several US defense and intelligence agencies concluded that the airship carried US devices available on the market, as well as specialized Chinese sensors and other equipment to take pictures and videos and collect other information and transfer them to China.
The report added that the results support the view that the balloon was intended for espionage, not weather observation, as China claimed. But the Wall Street Journal said the balloon did not appear to have sent China any data from its eight-day voyage, in which it passed over Alaska, Canada and some other US border states.
The White House and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
In February, the United States shot down the blimp, which was flying over sensitive military sites, sparking a diplomatic crisis.
