Vice President Kamala Harris’s planned departure from Singapore on Tuesday was delayed for an unknown reason.

It was unclear how long Harris will remain in Singapore. She’d been scheduled to depart for Vietnam, the second leg of a trip to Southeast Asia, at 4 p.m. local time. The White House didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on the reason for the delay.

The vice president has so far used the trip to emphasize the U.S. commitment to the region and to warn about the threat China poses, particularly regarding territorial disputes.

But the timing of the visit overseas has left Harris defending President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan. On Tuesday, she called the move “courageous and right,” while saying the U.S. was “laser-focused” on evacuating U.S. citizens and vulnerable Afghans.

Harris flight to Vietnam delayed after being informed of a 'possible anomalous health incident' in Hanoi

(CNN)Vice President Kamala Harris' departure for Vietnam was delayed by several hours Tuesday afternoon after her office was informed by the US embassy in Hanoi, Vietnam, of a "report of a recent possible anomalous health incident."

That term is the way that the government usually refers to the mysterious Havana syndrome that has sickened hundreds of US officials over the past few years.

"Earlier this evening, the Vice President's traveling delegation was delayed from departing Singapore because the Vice President's office was made aware of a report of a recent possible anomalous health incident in Hanoi, Vietnam. After careful assessment, the decision was made to continue with the Vice President's trip," said Rachael Chen, spokeswoman for the US embassy in Hanoi, in a statement.

The intelligence community still doesn't have an official explanation for Havana syndrome, which is a perplexing mix of sensory experiences and physical symptoms that have now sickened hundreds of US diplomats, spies and troops around the globe -- some severely enough to force their retirement.

CNN has not reported any cases of Havana syndrome in Vietnam.

Harris eventually took off from Singapore's Paya Lebar Air Base at 7:32 p.m. local time, after a more than three-hour delay.

Symptoms Hearing strange grating noises, headache, hearing loss, memory loss, and nausea
Causes Likely caused by directed microwaves, although not definitively determined[2][3][4]

[Sticw]

Any chance of a secret meeting with opposition parties?

Uncle Putin up to mischief> Probably trying to use microwave to trigger listening devices at the US Embassy.
