"The mysterious so-called Havana syndrome symptoms experienced by US diplomats in recent
00:07
years have been linked to a Russian intelligence unit, according to a joint media investigation
00:12
by several media outlets. The illness, which can cause brain damage, may be linked to the
00:17
use of sonic weapons by Russian secret services against these personnel. Moscow dismissed
00:22
the allegations as groundless."
00:24
"No one has ever published or expressed any convincing evidence of these allegations.
00:31
Therefore, all this is nothing more than a groundless accusation, a false accusation by
00:38
the media."
00:41
Russia's 29155 unit has been blamed for several international incidents, including the attempted
00:48
poisoning of the defector Sergei Skripal in Britain in 2018. In a 2023 report, US authorities
00:55
claimed it was unlikely a foreign power was responsible for the symptoms, but put no possible
01:00
other causes forward.
