On February 26, 2025, an outbreak of African Swine Fever (ASF) was detected in pig-related items and products originating from Ukraine. This incident falls under the category of bio-contaminants, raising concerns regarding the safety and management of these products.

The detection of ASF highlights the potential risks associated with pig-related items, which may include various pork products and by-products. The source of this information is the Россельхознадзор (Rosselkhoznadzor), the Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance in Russia. The agency is responsible for monitoring and regulating the safety of agricultural products, particularly in relation to animal health.

As the situation develops, authorities are expected to implement measures to contain the spread of the virus and ensure compliance with safety standards. The presence of African Swine Fever in pig-related products is a significant concern for both public health and the agricultural industry, as it affects not only animal populations but also food supply chains.

Stakeholders in the agricultural sector are advised to remain vigilant and informed about the implications of this outbreak. Further updates and guidelines are anticipated from relevant authorities in response to this incident.
