Moroccan King Advises Citizens Against Slaughtering Animals for Eid al-Adha Due to Drought Conditions

ai generated text

King Mohammed VI of Morocco has requested that his countrymen refrain from slaughtering livestock, specifically sheep, during the upcoming Eid al-Adha festivities. The decision is attributed to the ongoing economic hardship and climate crisis in the country. The drought has led to a decline in the country's cattle and sheep herds, with a 38% reduction since the last census nine years ago.

    1. Our country is facing climatic and economic challenges that have resulted in a substantial decline in livestock.
    2. Our commitment to enabling you to fulfill this religious rite under the best conditions is accompanied by the duty to consider the climatic and economic challenges facing our country, which have led to a significant decline in livestock numbers.
