NOTE: In a new intelligence assessment, the CIA has ruled out that the mysterious symptoms known as Havana Syndrome are the result of a sustained global campaign by a hostile power aimed at hundreds of U.S. diplomats and spies.

People who have experienced possible Havana Syndrome symptoms and have been briefed on the assessment have expressed deep disappointment to this CIA’s findings.

Starting in late 2016, U.S. diplomats and spies serving in Cuba began reporting bizarre sounds and sensations followed by unexplained illnesses and symptoms, including hearing and vision loss, memory and balance problems, headaches and nausea.

Over the years (including recently), many hundreds of U.S. officials have come forward reporting suspected incidents in more than a dozen countries.
