The balloon was located over The Rural state of Montana on Wednesday, said The Pentagon .

He added that US military leaders, including Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin and General Mark Milley , The Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, met on Wednesday to assess The Threat . Mr Austin was travelling to the Philippines at The Time .
The military commanders advised against taking " kinetic action" against the balloon because of the danger of debris falling to the ground.
The senior defence official said there was no " significantly enhanced threat" of US intelligence being compromised because US officials " know exactly where this balloon is and exactly where it's passing over".
He added that there was no threat to civilian aviation either because the balloon is " significantly" above the altitude used by commercial airlines.
