China has reportedly unveiled a long-range heat ray gun, which shoots microwaves into the bodies of people, causing them immense pain in the process.
According to the Independent, the gun, known as a Poly WB-1, works by projecting a man-sized milimetre beam onto the body, which heats water molecules just under the skin and causes intense pain.
With a range of 80 metres, the gun can shoot microwaves over 1 kilometer with increased power.
The non-lethal gun does not inflict long-lasting harm.
The weapon is similar to the one developed by the US government, which was later ordered to be pulled from the service, the report added.
