The U.S. has removed 60% of its diplomatic personnel and their families from the embassy in Cuba. 21 of their diplomats have suffered mysterious health attacks over the past few months, such as hearing loss, tinnitus, fatigue, cognitive issues and more. They are currently investigating the cause of these attacks and have yet to find who or what exactly is responsible. The Cuban government denies having anything to do with these attacks, and they announced that there isn’t legitimate evidence that proves the US’s claims of being targeted. They warned the US, telling them that this move may affect their relationship. The embassy will remain open to continue its diplomatic functions and emergency services but will suspend routine visa processing.
