On May 29, 2025, within the framework of the 92nd General Assembly of the World Organisation of Animal Health (WOAH) World Assembly of Delegates, a decision was made to assign the zone of the Russian Federation “Western Siberia - Urals” the official status of foot and mouth disease (FMD)-free territory with vaccination.
The regions of Russia are divided into 6 zones, 5 of which already had official FMD-free status. Assigning the status to the last zone, zone 6, located along the border with Kazakhstan, indicates that WOAH recognizes the entire territory of the Russian Federation as FMD-free.
Well-being statuses indicate full control of the disease, the highest level of organization of all necessary preventive measures, and also allow for safe trade in livestock products without threats to global epizootic stability.
