Could you identify when you were under attack, even if you couldn’t see it? Over the last decade a number of U.S. Officials on assignment abroad have reported sudden and explainable attacks of troubling psychic symptoms. Out of nowhere they’re struck by invisible vibrations and overwhelming pressure to the head, causing extreme dizziness, temporary blindness and memory loss, known as Havana Syndrome. Who is behind the attacks? How are they doing this? Is this the effect of a top secret weapon? Or could it all be in their heads?
