Beni Suef Veterinary Chief Urges Hiring Young Vets to Protect Egypt’s Livestock

Dr. Khaled Shoqeir, head of the Veterinarians’ Syndicate in Beni Suef, has called for the appointment of young veterinarians, describing their recruitment as essential to protecting Egypt’s livestock and implementing presidential initiatives.

Shoqeir stressed that veterinarians serve as a first line of defence for Egypt and play a role in safeguarding national security.

He said their responsibilities extend across the country and to its borders, including entry points, seaports and airports.

His appeal linked the need to bring young veterinarians into the workforce with the profession’s wider responsibilities in protecting animal wealth and supporting national initiatives.
