Farmers in Paphos Appeal for Help as Stray Dogs Attack Livestock

Livestock farmers in Paphos are protesting the attacks of stray dogs on their animals, resulting in significant financial losses. The problem has intensified in recent months, as hunters abandon their dogs in the Asprokremmos area after training them. These dogs, searching for food, attack flocks of sheep and goats, as well as dead animals, creating health risks. Farmers and residents are calling for immediate intervention from the Police and relevant authorities to address the problem and ensure the safety of animals and people.
