Between February 6 and 9, officials at the Cherlaksky and Isilkulsky transport control points in Russia intercepted six vehicles illegally transporting over 23 tons of animal products and 500 heads without the required veterinary documents. The cargo, which included various types of fish, was sent back to its origin points in Russia and Kazakhstan. The Rosselkhoznadzor Directorate halted further transportation of these goods, and the violators were held accountable administratively.
