Caretaker Agriculture Minister, Ghazi Zaiter, categorically denied in a statement on Saturday all tweets pertaining to the cow ship issue, saying, "It seems that straining the atmosphere has become the hobby of some Twitter users among citizens and officials."
"The Ministry of Agriculture is keen on the Lebanese people's health and wellbeing against the anthrax, regardless of its source," stressed Zaiter, regretting the spread of such groundless, false news.
