The Polish agriculture ministry announced that five outbreaks of African swine fever (ASF) in swine have been detected this year, Reuters reported.

 

The outbreaks have been identified in four regions: Lubelskie, Warminsko-Mazurskie, Wielkopolskie, and Zachodniopomorskie.

 

In 2023, 14 European Union Member States reported ASF cases. Croatia and Romania accounted for 96% of these outbreaks, reporting a total of 1,929 cases. ASD was detected for the first time in Sweden and Croatia and spread to new regions in Italy. Greece, after a two-year hiatus, reported new cases as well.
