Krasnodar, 27 May – Yug Times. Authorities in Adyghea have intensified efforts to protect fish spawning grounds during the strict seasonal fishing ban. A joint operation conducted by the Kuban-Adyghean Division of the Azov-Black Sea Territorial Directorate of the Federal Fisheries Agency (Rosrybolovstvo) and environmental protection officials has resulted in the removal of numerous illegal fishing nets from protected areas.
