CIA taps new 'Havana Syndrome' task force leader who once spearheaded Usama bin Laden search effort: reports
Fox News
A senior CIA official who spearheaded the agency’s search for Usama bin Laden has been tapped to lead a task force investigating the cause of the mysterious “Havana Syndrome.”
The individual will now lead a CIA task force first formed in December after a panel of scientists from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine identified "directed, pulsed radio frequency (RF) energy" as the most likely cause of the "Havana Syndrome" – which received that name because symptoms were first reported by diplomats at the U.S. embassy in Cuba’s capital city in 2016. By May, at least 130 unexplained cases of dizziness, headache, fatigue, nausea, anxiety, cognitive difficulties, memory loss and even brain damage were under investigation, up from several dozen last year. Still, no definitive cause has been determined. Just last week, the State Department announced additional cases being investigated at the U.S. embassy in Vienna, Austria.
