The 1950s incident at the Moscow embassy:

"Microwaves in the cold war: the Moscow embassy study and its interpretation. Review of a retrospective cohort study"

"From 1953 to 1976, beams of microwaves of 2.5 to 4.0 GHz were aimed at the US embassy building in Moscow. An extensive study investigated the health of embassy staff and their families, comparing Moscow embassy staff with staff in other Eastern European US embassies. The resulting large report has never been published in peer reviewed literature."

The US let this run and only stopped it when Ambassador Stoessel bleeded from his eyes.

Not sure this is the case here, see the Bellingcat research on GRU in the past and on GRU involvement in this case.
