Livestock Farmers Plan Blockade Against Foot-and-Mouth Disease
Livestock farmers from all districts are planning a blockade of the Rizoeliás roundabout on Thursday to protest against the massive animal culling due to foot-and-mouth disease. Spokesperson Stella Petrou announced that demonstrators will block major roads to draw attention to the crisis in livestock farming. The action is part of larger mobilisations to combat the spread of the disease.
