Canada’s foreign ministry is investigating after at least one of its diplomats stationed in Cuba was treated for hearing loss and headaches.
It comes a day after the US said its diplomats in Havana were experiencing strange physical symptoms.
Reports suggest the envoys could have been targeted by a covert sonic device that causes hearing loss.
Havana denies the allegation, but the US has removed two Cuban diplomats from Washington DC in retaliation.
“Cuba has never, nor would ever, allow the Cuban territory to be used for any kind of action against accredited diplomats or their families,” Cuba’s foreign ministry said.
While US officials have not directly accused the Cuban government, US Department of State spokeswoman Heather Nauer said it had a “responsibility” to protect US diplomats.
Global Affairs Canada, the country’s foreign ministry, says the government is working with US and Cuban officials to find out what happened.
“We are aware of unusual symptoms affecting Canadian and US diplomatic personnel and their families in Havana,” a spokesperson for Global Affairs told the BBC.
