A recent report found that a mysterious illness sickening hundreds of U.S. diplomats in 96 countries may have been caused by a possible “sonic attack” by Russian intelligence services, Axios the report said.

Joint report by an expert, Mirror and CBS’ “60 minutes”.

In 2016, U.S. diplomats reported the first case of the infamous “Havana Syndrome,” also known as an “abnormal health event (AHI),” in the Cuban capital, Havana.

Since then, U.S. officials around the world have reported more than 1,500 cases. Symptoms include extreme headache, dizziness, nausea and earache.

A 2020 report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine suggested that “neurological symptoms may be caused by radiofrequency radiation energy, including microwaves.”

Additionally, some lawmakers have suggested that the disease could be the result of a “directed energy attack.”

Last year, however, U.S. intelligence agencies dismissed those claims, saying it was “extremely unlikely” that foreign adversaries were involved.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence reiterated those claims that the AHI case “does not involve a foreign adversary.”

On Monday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov denied Russian involvement, calling it a “baseless accusation.”
