ISLAMABAD: Ahead of Eid-ul-Adha, the government has issued a stern warning against the improper disposal of sacrificial animal remains near airports, citing serious aviation safety concerns.
The warning issued by federal government says that improper disposal of offal of sacrificial animals can attract birds, increasing the risk of bird-aircraft collisions.
The Eid-ul-Adha festivities involve the sacrifice of animals, and the careless disposal of their remains escalates the risk of bird congregation around airports, increasing the likelihood of bird strikes, which can cause extensive damage to aircraft, endangering the lives of passengers and crew, and leading to severe operational disruptions.
To address these risks, authorities are urging the public to strictly adhere to proper disposal protocols for animal remains. Compliance with these guidelines is imperative to uphold safety standards and prevent potential tragedies.
Residents living near airports are specifically urged to ensure proper disposal practices. Safeguarding against inadvertent hazards stemming from the sacred act of sacrifice is essential for maintaining public safety and upholding the sanctity of tradition.
