Introduction:
Studies and research conducted by global scientific and medical organizations have raised concerns about the health risks posed by communication towers located on rooftops of buildings and public institutions in residential neighborhoods. These towers, which transmit communication frequencies through mobile networks, are a source of electromagnetic radiation. This radiation has been linked to certain types of cancer, particularly in individuals with heightened electromagnetic sensitivity. According to technology experts, electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are a form of radiation that can harm human and animal health and the environment. The health impact occurs when individuals are exposed to EMFs, which directly affect tissues. Scientific research has shown that this energy is absorbed by parts of the human body, particularly the face, when using mobile devices. Studies have indicated the potential for general brain tumors and specifically acoustic neuromas caused by the head’s absorption of radiofrequency waves.
