On February 17, 2025, the Food Safety Agency of the Republic of Azerbaijan reported the detection of Bluetongue and related terms in poultry products. This incident has been categorized under control measures due to its potential implications for food safety.

The incident highlights the ongoing need for vigilance in food safety practices, particularly with regard to the potential transmission of diseases through food products.
