Russian Spy Unit Implicated in 'Havana Syndrome' Attacks on U.S. Officials

TL;DR Summary
A '60 Minutes' report suggests that Russian military intelligence Unit 29155 is likely behind the mysterious neurological symptoms known as "Havana Syndrome" that have affected US diplomats and spies for nearly a decade, contradicting the US intelligence community's previous assessment ruling out a foreign role. The report links the unit to the development of "non-lethal acoustic weapons" and tracks attacks on American personnel in various locations. Calls for congressional hearings have been made, and the US government has been urged to prioritize investigations and support for affected personnel.
