In late July 2026, African swine fever was confirmed in several locations across the Philippines and in India's Nagaland state. The Philippines saw infections in Cebu City, prompting a citywide cull, burial of infected pigs and transport bans, while nearby provinces entered red‑zone or pink‑zone monitoring. In Basilan’s Lamitan City, hundreds of hogs died and authorities imposed movement controls and offered financial aid. India’s Zunheboto district reported spread beyond its initial detection, leading to pig mortalities, stricter biosecurity orders and a livestock insurance scheme, though pig coverage remained suspended.

Three days later, Philippine officials detailed the response in Cebu and Basilan. Cebu City’s veterinary department carried out humane culling of 19 pigs in Barangay Quiot, intensified surveillance and coordinated with national agencies to contain the disease within two weeks. In Lamitan City, a mass depopulation of 284 pigs across 113 small‑scale farms was executed, and local leaders announced tighter biosecurity and ongoing monitoring to prevent further spread.
