Congressional report warns ‘Havana Syndrome’ is linked to external adversary

No surprise here, except for the fact it has taken any branch of the U.S. government this long to come up with the most obvious conclusion about so-called “Havana Syndrome”. The evidence has been there all along, yet agency after agency has willfully and irresponsibly ignored it –or worse — denied that there is any evidence. Journalists have played along too, spreading lies about mating crickets or mass hysteria.

Now, as it turns out, there is also evidence of a deliberate coverup on the part of U.S. intelligence agencies. Such evidence has been there all along too. Search for “sonic attacks” on Babalu. See for yourself. We have been reporting on this for several years. Stay tuned. The congressional committee working on this “mystery” has announced that it will soon release a classified report .

A preliminary report from the House Subcommittee overseeing the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) suggests that a foreign adversary may be responsible for some of the incidents of the so-called “Havana Syndrome,” which has affected U.S. diplomats and officials worldwide since 2016. Released on December 5, the report sharply criticizes the U.S. intelligence community for hindering investigations and providing what it calls “dubious and misleading” assessments. The House Intelligence Committee initiated these investigations in late February.

According to Rick Crawford, the Republican chairman of the CIA subcommittee of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, there is compelling evidence that certain agencies sought to downplay the phenomenon to avoid political fallout and divert Congress’s attention. The report accuses the intelligence community of “obstructing investigative efforts” by delaying crucial information, censoring documents, and restricting testimonies to Congress.

Crawford has indicated that the subcommittee has gathered substantial evidence supporting the theory that a foreign adversary is involved in some cases of the syndrome, although the most sensitive details are reserved for a classified report to be released soon. “It appears increasingly likely that a foreign adversary is behind some of these incidents. The intelligence community has tried to impede our investigation at every turn,” the report asserts.

In a statement to the Miami Herald, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence categorically rejected the report’s accusations, labeling them unfounded. According to this governmental source, the investigation was “one of the most comprehensive” in the history of the intelligence community, employing all available technical and operational resources to clarify the incidents. The CIA also defended its actions, claiming it provided thousands of pages of documents to Congress and facilitated numerous briefings. However, the report highlights that much of this information was incomplete and delivered late.

Mark Zaid, attorney for several victims of Havana Syndrome, stated that the congressional report confirms what many affected individuals have long alleged: a deliberate cover-up by the intelligence community. An ex-official identified as “Patient Zero” claimed that the U.S. government has allowed its adversaries to operate with impunity. “While the intelligence community is busy covering this up, our adversaries are becoming bolder and more effective,” the whistleblower asserted.

Since the initial cases were reported in 2016 at the U.S. Embassy in Havana, hundreds of diplomats, intelligence agents, and their families have experienced symptoms like migraines, memory loss, hearing issues, and cognitive difficulties. Similar cases have subsequently been reported in Russia, China, Europe, and even Washington D.C. The U.S. government has officially recognized over 300 affected individuals, including several children, who have received specialized medical care in military facilities. Some have even been financially compensated after it was confirmed that their ailments could not be explained by known environmental factors.
