Farmers Block Road in Protest Over Animal Culling

Farmers blocked a road in Aradippou, protesting against the culling of animals due to foot-and-mouth disease. They are calling for intervention from the President of the Republic and an official response from the European Union regarding their request to avoid the culling of healthy animals. Farmers express their outrage over the continuation of culling, despite assurances of waiting for a response from the EU. They threaten further mobilization if their demands are not met.
