You can find the exact same "non specific symptoms" in pretty much Any prescriptions drug list of side effects.

Yes, perhaps all the people effected were taking the same prescription drugs?

Seriously, something happened to cause many of the staff to experience these symptoms with a strong correlation with time and place -- kind of suggests something other than prescription drugs and the fact that pulsed RF can do this and there is a desire to do it and the means to do it ...

Has anyone asked Paul Brodeur?

I was too lazy to read the report, but I still find it highly unlikely that the source of this phenomenon was "directed, pulsed radio frequency (RF) energy". How would this explain that the sounds were actually recorded on smart phones? Besides, even if the Frey effect really exists (since there doesn't seem to be any scientific model how it's supposed to work), the few people who ever were affected by it described it as faint(!) clicking sound and not as terrible noise. And these people were working near radar units in WWII and the like. To hit someone with this kind of energy inside his/her apartments without clearly visible antenna arrays seems somewhat impossible.

I still think the most plausible root cause would be some ultrasonic device that caused interferences (or intermodulation distortion) in the acoustic range. Which doesn't mean that the devices causing this were necessarily developed to cause harm. The article I quoted at the beginning of this thread e.g. named ceiling-mounted ultrasonic room-occupancy sensors. Taking into account that we're talking about embassy employees, maybe the embassy has installed ultrasonic jammers that are supposed to cause microphones to malfunction.
Of course all of this would just cause noise but honestly all the other symptoms seem rather vague. And surely a sound that you can't locate, that keeps you from sleeping etc. will also cause side effects like feeling tired etc.

I think it is unfortunate that you didn't read the report. Not going to start a big fight as I am also "too lazy" to do a lot of stuff. I hope you will take the time to read the report. They had a defined task and they were given a certain amount of information. The report does not present a definitive answer and they are quite clear about that (e.g., "Plausible Explanations"). Personally, I like that they analyzed the data they had and did so in, what seems to me to be, reasonable fashion. They were contracted to do the work and their work was reviewed.

As for the "recorded sounds" issue that you mentioned. I remember those and never felt that they had much credibility...

Cell phone recordings of the alleged sonic attack were provided to an Associated Press reporter by an anonymous source in the State Department. But the sounds were identified by Yamile González Sánchez, an official at the Ministry of Public Health, and physicist Carlos Barceló Pérez, a professor at the National Institute of Hygiene, as those made by local insects, which they recorded on the scene. Moreover, the sounds, all in the audible range (about 7 kilohertz), would have overdriven the microphone—preventing it from recording—if they were loud enough to damage hearing. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/ldquo-sonic-weapon-attacks-rdquo-on-u-s-embassy-don-rsquo-t-add-up-mdash-for-anyone/
