A Norwegian scientist has reportedly suffered brain injury after testing an experimental microwave-based device on himself in an effort to challenge claims surrounding Havana Syndrome.According to reports, the researcher used a device designed to emit powerful microwave energy pulses, believing the technology would prove harmless. However, he later began experiencing symptoms associated with the unexplained condition often referred to as Havana Syndrome.The scientist is said to have informed the CIA about the experiment and its outcome in 2024. Following the disclosure, US officials reportedly travelled to Norway to examine the device, which was believed to have been assembled using components allegedly taken from a foreign government.Havana Syndrome is the term used to describe a cluster of unexplained health symptoms first reported in 2016 by US personnel stationed at the embassy in Havana, Cuba. Affected individuals have described severe headaches, dizziness, ringing in the ears and cognitive difficulties. The US government refers to such cases as anomalous health incidents.Since the first reports, similar symptoms have been recorded in more than 15 countries, including Russia, China, India, Colombia, the United States and the United Kingdom. More than 1,500 American officials have reportedly experienced related symptoms since 2016.Some theories suggest that directed-energy or microwave weapons could be responsible, potentially causing neurological harm from a distance. However, there is no confirmed evidence proving that foreign governments are behind the incidents. Russia has previously denied involvement.Sources familiar with the Norwegian case have reportedly cautioned that the scientists symptoms do not exactly match typical accounts of Havana Syndrome, and that the experiment does not conclusively prove the condition results from deliberate attacks.Reports have also claimed that US authorities purchased a suspected microwave device in a covert operation in 2024. The device was described as portable and containing components of Russian origin, though there has been no verified evidence confirming it was manufactured by Russia.Despite growing speculation about microwave or sonic technologies, officials have acknowledged ongoing uncertainty about whether devices of that size could produce the type of neurological effects reported by affected individuals.The broader debate over Havana Syndrome remains unresolved, with investigations continuing into possible causes, including environmental, psychological and technological explanations.The post Scientist gives himself brain damage while testing secret experimental weapon appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
