DEW attack in Canneto di Caronia?

[Karl12]

Really interesting  , weapon testing ? high power radars ? Or something else.....something strange going on there .

If it was DEW used it can happen again anywhere , which is bad news .

Yes indeed mate and looks like someone's had a field day covering up official info on this case as many (if not all) the links are now defunct.

Still got archived data though and there's a list below of the actions taken by the official investigative task force before it was 'abruptly shut down' by the Italian Government (list provided by Internos).

Aerial Photo-Remote Sensing campaign by Aeronautica Militare Physical


Geo-Physical and Geo-Chemical data assessment campaign by National Geophysics and Volcanology institute


Oceanographic campaign by the boat "Galatea" from Water institute of Marina Militare on a wide sea area, in front of the coast of Canneto (magnetometry, Physical and Chemical parameters, sedimentology)


Detection and measurement campaign made with Geo radar


Magnetometric and Electro-magnetic fields detection and monitoring campaign by Marina Militare


Radio-electric spectrum monitoring campaign by the Ministry of Telecommunications and by the Regional Agency for the protection of the Environment - Sicily


Measurements of the environmental and meteo climatics parameters by Regional Meteo-Agricultural Institute - Sicily


Mapping of all the devices involved within the radio electric spectrum within a range of several Kilometres from Canneto, by Ministry of Telecommunications


Aerial detection, mapping and measurements of the total intensity of the ground magnetic field by National Geophysics and Volcanology institute on a wide area of side between Ustica e le and Aeolian Islands

Apparently 'continuous investigations were also made with boats, helicopters and vehicles equipped with special instruments in order to detect electric, magnetic, geo-magnetic anomalies'.

In part eight of the news investigation the CUN Secretary does suggest that 'we may be in presence of some form of extremely advanced technology' but that 'he doesn’t believe in the existence of some kind of Spectre like organization'.

There's also this snippet involving the leaking of the official interim report in 2007.

In 2007, the task force, after closing the investigations and monitoring, leaked an interim report which raised more questions instead of providing some answers: and the conclusion was that the “bizarre” events were "caused by hundreds of high-power electromagnetic emissions which were not man-made and reached a power between 12 and 15 gigawatts."

Francesco Mantegna Venerando, Sicily's Civil Protection chief who co-ordinated the report, also said "This is just one possibility. We are also looking at another one which involves the testing of top-secret weapons by an unknown power which are also capable of producing an enormous amount of energy." And "This is not the final report. We are still working on our conclusions and this has been leaked," he concluded.

Cheers (and good to see you).
