"No one has the right to assign the frontier soldiers on the Turkish
border to shoot on birds crossing the border," National Security
Service told Panorama.am.
Panorama.am again talked to Grisha Baghyan, food safety and veterinary
state inspection head at the ministry of agriculture. The latter
further explained that an arrangement is made with Andranik Asatryan,
veterinary service head of the frontier forces, to "make control
stricter by the veterinary service."
"By saying stricter control we mean that the veterinary service of the
frontier forces will help us, in particular, by providing information
on dead birds or sending them to laboratory for studies," Baghyan said.
Speaking about shootings on the birds, the inspection head said that
they will shoot not to kill birds but to frighten them. Moreover,
during bird migration a monitoring will be conducted, bird blood will
be tested to identify those that carry infection.
