Kuwait bans poultry imports from Togo

Kuwait’s authorities have placed a temporary ban on poultry imports from Togo.

The Public Authority for Agricultural Affairs and Fish Resources (PAAAFR) from Kuwait has decided to restrict the shipments of poultry from Togo due to the recent detection of an Avian Influenza (AI) outbreak in the country, as reported by Arab Times.

PAAAFR told KUNA that it took the decision based on regional and international rules and regulations concerning the prevention of disease and infection.
