A radiofrequency energy of radiation that includes microwaves likely caused American diplomats in China and Cuba to fall ill with neurological symptoms over the past four years, a report published Saturday finds.
Why it matters: The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s report doesn’t attribute blame for the suspected attacks, but it notes there “was significant research in Russia/USSR into the effects of pulsed, rather than continuous wave [radiofrequency] exposures” and military personnel in “Eurasian communist countries” were exposed to non-thermal radiation.
