UAE Bans Russian Poultry Imports

UAE Bans Russian Poultry: The United Arab Emirates has prohibited the import of all live birds and their products from Kalmykia in Russia.

The move comes after the recent World Health Organization report regarding bifocal bird flu in the Russian province.

The ban covers all domestic, wild, and ornamental birds, chicks and hatching eggs.
