Belarusian Farm's Tragedy: 186 Cows Dead, Officials Face Charges

Negligence at Belarusian Farm Leads to Death of 186 Cows, Officials Face Charges A recent investigation by the Belarusian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) has uncovered a case of gross negligence at a farm in the Vitebsk region, resulting in the deaths of 186 cows and substantial financial losses. The MVD report alleges that the 42-year-old director and his 68-year-old deputy failed to provide adequate veterinary care and proper nutrition for the animals. "The lack of proper oversight and management led to the tragic loss of livestock," stated an MVD spokesperson in a recent video release. The investigation revealed that the veterinary doctor did not provide timely treatment, and the zootechnician failed to ensure proper nutrition for the cattle. The resulting losses are estimated to be over 80,000 rubles. Both individuals face up to five years imprisonment if found guilty. This case highlights the importance of proper management and animal welfare practices in Belarusian agriculture. The incident underscores the need for stricter regulations and oversight to prevent similar tragedies in the future. The MVD continues its investigation to determine the full extent of the negligence and ensure those responsible are held accountable.
