The embassy in Havana cut its staff in half in 2017 after dozens of people complained of headaches, nausea and other ailments from hearing mysterious, penetrating high-pitched noises — believed to be an acoustic weapon — possibly from the Russians.

But a fresh analysis of an audio recording made by US personnel in Cuba revealed that the source of the piercing din is the song of the Indies short-tailed cricket, known as Anurogryllus celerinictus, a study says.

How utterly ridiculous. The US has sound based weapons systems that will disrupt brain function and brain wave patterns. A focused subsonic and ultrasound generators which can project through walls and buildings. And are inaudible. Crickets can be heard.

The frequency of the inaudible sound weapons is the strength. If one could focus a sound wave onto and through someone’s lower tract intestines/urinary system- one could cause disruption of continence, induce diarrhea and in the brain case, cause microvibrations that can be oscillated up and down an cause wave motion of soft brain tissues— micro internal brain injury.

These people were not hearing crickets.

CNN ALSO HAS THIS ARTICLE:

It is still a crazy, unreasonable theory. People don’t get brain damage from crockets. MRIs showed brain damage.
