The Ministry of Agricultural Development and Food of Greece announced that the restrictions imposed due to foot-and-mouth disease (aftous pyreas) have been eased, gradually allowing the shipment of dairy products from the island of Lesvos. The General Directorate of Veterinary Services published the third update of the Biosecurity Guide upon the request of the milk processing facilities on the island and with the approval of the national disease control center.
The decision is based on a risk assessment taken in line with the recent decrease in the number of positive cases and the compliance of cheese producers with the determined measures. With the new regulation, the export of butter, milk cream, and miyezitra cheese from the restricted zone was allowed; however, these products can only be shipped to be processed by food, bakery, and pastry businesses.
Shipments can be made directly or through distributors, and it will be mandatory to submit an official declaration indicating the final destination of the products. In addition, the sale of matured cheeses produced before 15 May 2026 is also allowed. It is emphasized that strict biosecurity rules are maintained in all these new steps.
