Germany's Free State of Saxony has expanded the core control zone for African Swine Fever (ASF) in the District of Meißen, following a period with no reported cases since May 2022. This expansion affects areas within the Municipalities of Ebersbach, Lampertswalde, Radeburg, Schönfeld and Thiendorf in the District of Meißen and the Municipality of Laußnitz in the District of Bautzen. The expansion means the lifting of preventive measures for agriculture and citizens, and the permissible use of agricultural and forest land. However, measures to restrict the movement of wild boar will persist.
