CIA Director claims to be "fuming" mad and still clueless as yet more "mysterious" attacks... https://arstechnica.com/science/2021/09/cia-director-fuming-after-havana-syn... https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/20/politics/cia-director-havana-syndrome-india-t... https://twitter.com/JoshNBCNews/status/1430185838164463619 https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/12/covert-microwave-weapon-most-plausib... Another unexplained case — CIA director “fuming” after Havana syndrome strikes team member in India Some officials fear the incidents are increasing and escalating, leaving officers on edge. A US intelligence officer traveling in India earlier this month with CIA director William Burns reported experiencing a mysterious health incident and symptoms consistent with so-called Havana syndrome, according to a report by CNN. The officer received immediate medical care upon returning to the US. The case raises fears that such incidents are not only increasing, but potentially escalating, unnamed officials told CNN and The New York Times. The new incident within Burns' own team reportedly left the CIA chief "fuming" with anger. Further Reading CIA officer from bin Laden hunt to lead Havana Syndrome probe as cases rise The director's schedule is tightly guarded, and officials do not know if the affected intelligence officer was targeted because the officer was traveling with the director. If the health incident was an attack carried out by an adversarial intelligence agency—as feared—it's unclear how the adversarial agency learned of the trip and was able to prepare an attack. It's also possible, however, that the officer was targeted for other reasons and without knowledge that the officer was traveling with the director. A CIA spokesperson told CNN only, "We don't comment on specific incidents or officers. We have protocols in place for when individuals report possible anomalous health incidents that include receiving appropriate medical treatment. We will keep doing everything we can to protect our officers." The incident is the second high-profile case in less than a month. On August 24, another so-called "anomalous health incident" affecting US embassy staff in Hanoi, Vietnam, came to light. It is still unclear how many staff members were affected in that incident, but NBC News reported that two US personnel were medevaced out of the country. The initial report of that incident came just as Vice President Kamala Harris was set to fly to Hanoi from Singapore as part of a planned weeklong visit. News of the incident kept Harris grounded at Singapore's Paya Lebar Air Base aboard Air Force Two for more than three hours until officials determined it was safe to proceed. At the time, a spokesperson for the US embassy in Hanoi, Rachael Chen, confirmed in a statement that "the Vice President's traveling delegation was delayed from departing Singapore because the Vice President's office was made aware of a report of a recent possible anomalous health incident in Hanoi, Vietnam. After careful assessment, the decision was made to continue with the Vice President's trip." Cases and questions Overall, there are now more than 300 possible cases among US personnel from around the globe and stretching back years, according to reporting by CNN. The incidents first came to light in late 2016 among US and Canadian diplomats and their families stationed in Havana, Cuba, giving the cases their current moniker of Havana syndrome. A series of similar cases were later widely reported among US personnel serving in a US consulate in Guangzhou, China. Since then, cases have been reported elsewhere in Asia, Europe, Russia, and even a few in the US. At least two US officials have reported incidents in the Washington, DC, area in the past few years, including one near the White House grounds. Though the Biden administration has stepped up efforts to investigate the incidents and provide medical care and support for those affected, much about the cases remains a mystery. It is still not definitively known if the incidents are even intentional attacks. Generally, the incidents involve people experiencing directional sounds and/or sensations that cause dizziness, nausea, headaches, ringing in the ears, balance problems, and/or other symptoms that are largely consistent with mild traumatic brain injuries or concussions. Comprehensive medical evaluations of some of the US personnel affected in Havana concluded they had sustained "injury to widespread brain networks without an associated history of head trauma.” US personnel who experience anything like these incidents are advised to leave the area they are in immediately. But who and/or what is causing the incidents and injuries are still weighty unknowns. Medical and scientific experts have speculated that the cause may be anything from pesticide exposures to malfunctioning surveillance equipment, a collective delusion (mass psychogenic illness), or even simply the irritating sounds of randy crickets. A leading hypothesis, however, continues to be that the incidents are indeed attacks, which are carried out by Russian operatives using a covert microwave-energy device. A panel of experts with the National Academy of Sciences concluded last year that directed pulsed radiofrequency energy was the "most plausible" cause of the incidents and injuries. Russian scientists have a long history of researching related technology and its effects on people. Russian authorities have reportedly denied any involvement in the incidents.

No. Mass coverup. All US diplomatic stations have active electronic countermeasures both radio and ultrasound. The radio one is obvious, no need to explain it on slashdot. The ultrasound is not so well known. One of the ways to snoop on a conversation is to shine a modulated laser on the window and recover the sound from the doppler shift in the reflections. It is defeated by "shaking" the window. What we see here is a f*ckup by whatever contractor built the system (a few usual suspects come to mind). Instead of drowning snooping in white radio or ultrasound noise it is frying the diplomats' brains. That is the only plausible explanation, because it has now occurred in 25+ locations worldwide all of which are USA diplomatic sites. A lot of these were also sited in a places where it would have been difficulty for an adversary carrying a humongous and very "inconspicuous" antenna to point it at the embassy. Why the coverup? There are 45000 Department of State employees stationed overseas. Now count the payout to each of them for living and working in a brain fryer.

Now they claim it's Russians again... No worries, they're putting best "very highly qualified" people on it... https://www.politico.com/news/2021/10/08/us-investigators-increasingly-confi... The U.S. government's investigation into Havana Syndrome "is turning up new evidence that the symptoms are the result of directed-energy attacks," reports Politico, citing five U.S. lawmakers and officials who've been briefed on the matter: Behind closed doors, lawmakers are also growing increasingly confident that Russia or another hostile foreign government is behind the suspected attacks, based on regular briefings from administration officials — although there is still no smoking gun linking the incidents to Moscow.... The phenomenon is getting more high-level attention as government officials have continued to report incidents in countries across Europe, Asia, Africa and South America throughout the year. Most prominently, Vice President Kamala Harris' August trip from Singapore to Vietnam was delayed more than three hours when multiple U.S. personnel reported symptoms consistent with Havana Syndrome in Hanoi... A Biden administration official emphasized that the investigation is ongoing and has not yet reached specific conclusions... While CIA Director William Burns and lawmakers briefed on the matter have publicly referred to the incidents as attacks, some officials remain skeptical of the prevailing theory, and some prominent neurologists have described that explanation as implausible. But members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, who are receiving weekly updates from the intelligence community on the status of the investigation, said the latest information they've received has disproved the skeptics — and in public statements, those lawmakers are increasingly referring to the incidents as directed-energy attacks. Politico quotes one Republican Senator as saying "There have been new additional attacks, which is very disturbing. It's being taken very seriously now due to the director of the CIA ... [who] has put very highly qualified people on it..." The Senator also dismissed the theory that the illness was merely psychosomatic. "I don't know how you could argue that when brain imaging is showing a traumatic brain injury, somehow this is psychosomatic."
