Authorities moved on Tuesday to contain the first confirmed foot and mouth disease outbreak in the Limassol district after a positive case was identified at a farm in Pachna, prompting immediate culling of infected livestock.
The veterinary services said the outbreak involved a herd of 66 animals, with the total number of confirmed units nationwide to 117 following additional detections in Dromolaxia and Athienou over the weekend.
