There seems to be some electronic component and some biophysical component. The article describes a RADAR system suddenly failing and “buttons pressed” that stop working, which makes me think of EMP.

The article also mentions a (different?) weapon with physical effects

> At one point, they [the USA] launched something; I don’t know how to describe it. It was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside,” the witness said.

> “We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move. We couldn’t even stand up after that sonic weapon — or whatever it was.”
