British Bases Fully Aligned with Foot-and-Mouth Measures in Larnaca Province

The British Bases Administration in Cyprus confirmed its full alignment with the measures taken by the Republic of Cyprus to address the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease. Representatives of the Bases are actively participating in the coordination committee meetings in Larnaca, ensuring full information and alignment with countermeasures. Additional preventive measures have been taken, such as intensified patrols, checks, and the installation of additional disinfection points, in coordination with the Veterinary Services of the Republic of Cyprus. So far, there are no confirmed cases within the British Bases, but the measures are preventive in nature to protect animal and community health. Furthermore, vaccination of the indigenous breed of cattle was carried out in the Livadi Akrotiri area.
