Saudi Arabia confirmed an H5N8 outbreak in Riyadh that killed 14 birds, with about 60,000 birds in the exposed flock culled. The kingdom had recently lifted a temporary import ban on poultry from Greece, the Czech Republic, Romania and Mozambique.
A small outbreak in a single Saudi flock has negligible effect on global poultry or feed supply and prices.
