Animals International Romania has officially requested the European Commission to immediately suspend live animal exports from Midia Port due to high risks associated with the ongoing war and the spread of disease. The organization highlights the dangers in the Black Sea, where numerous commercial vessels have been attacked, posing a significant threat to both crew and animals. Despite a European ban on exporting sheep and goats from Romania, specialized vessels continue to depart for countries like Israel. The organization urges the Commission to verify compliance with this ban and to halt all live animal shipments from Midia, citing the lack of contingency plans for animals in case of maritime incidents.
