One night in 2016, a US ambassador to Cuba's capital, Havana, woke up with a pounding in the ears and a headache. Soon this was the condition of all the American ambassadors present there. Everyone was screaming by pressing their temples. The investigation turned up nothing except that the diplomat was no longer fit for work due to a mysterious illness known as Havana syndrome.

After almost 7 years, the American government is going to give Cuban visa to its people. In the year 2017, the then US President Donald Trump completely stopped sending his diplomats or their families to this country. He was afraid that on going to the Cuban island, everyone would be caught by the Havana syndrome. This is such a disease, for which even a country like America could not find its cause or cure. He doesn't even know whether the Havana syndrome was real, or just a myth. But there was something that was suddenly making everyone sick

Other countries were attacking!

It was speculated that Cuba might be spying in collaboration with America's enemy countries such as Russia and China. For this, he used to do supersonic attack on his people, due to which the mind started getting affected. Some people linked it with energy attack and some with microwave attack. Before knowing about them, let us know once what were the symptoms of the disease, due to which the American ambassador was suffering.

the symptoms were

In these, there used to be a very loud sound in the ears, like the sound of a siren's beep. Some people used to hear such a different voice, then it was never heard. Obviously they could not even describe it. Voice was the first symptom, followed by headache. Had vomiting. After a day or two, the diplomat could not be heard or seen. That is, it was something that was targeting the nervous system of the brain. However, no neurological changes were seen in the test.

disease spread

Within a few months, not only Havana, China, Russia, Austria, Serbia and many other countries also started showing symptoms of this strange disease. The strangest thing was that the disease was affecting only the American ambassador and American spies. The American intelligence agency CIA tried to find the reason in its own way. But nothing special was found.

there had been attacks before

After this, many American agencies including CIA gave conspiracy theories, which could be responsible for this. Most of the talk happened on the microwave attack. Russia had done this attack on America earlier also. During the Cold War, between 1953 and 1976, there was a disturbance in the American Embassy in Moscow. Microwave attack started from an apartment building on the 10th floor of Embassy. This happened many times. The American Embassy then protected the entire building anew to keep its transmission safe.

What is Microwave Weapon Attack

This is a kind of energy weapon, which is in the form of some kind of radiation, such as laser, sonic or microwave. Due to its strong radiation, it tampers with the technology, like corrupting a particular system to make it weak so that it can be breached. It can also be considered as a kind of bug. However, this beam has a different effect on humans. It directly affects the neurons of the brain, due to which the power of hearing and understanding starts decreasing. There is pain in the head. This effect can be very dangerous in the long run.

Was it the result of some radiation?

The American ambassador stuck in Cuba fell ill within a short time and was brought back. Cuba denied any such attack. Nor did China and Russia take any responsibility. Meanwhile, a team was formed, in which 40 such people were taken, who were troubled by similar symptoms while living in Cuba. It was found that this was the result of some radiation. It is possible that there was a sneak attack on the room or building where the ambassador lives. It is mentioned in the National Library of Medicine's Microwave in the Cold War and Beyond.

Canadian research said something else

Canadian ambassadors stationed in Cuba also started showing symptoms of Havana syndrome. Even their families present there started falling ill. Then Canadian researchers did research and said that this might be happening because of pesticide or insecticide. In the year 2016 itself, the Cuban government launched a campaign to eliminate mosquitoes to avoid the Zika virus, in which insecticides were used extensively. May be, this happened due to the spray present in the air. Although this was also a theory, the result of which could not be known.

Still a mystery...

Along with America, Canada also recalled its ambassadors from the Cuban Embassy. If it is a chemical or microwave attack, then there were many other countries along with Cuba, who seemed to be the villains. Microwave research programs were going on in many countries including China, Russia. In such a situation, America showed more caution and closed its own agency. Now after almost 7 years, when the American ambassador is about to go back to Cuba, Havana syndrome is once again being mentioned.
