"Kuwaiti Livestock Ship Causes Stench in Cape Town"
A livestock carrier ship, dubbed the "Kuwaiti death ship," carrying 19,000 cattle from Brazil to Iraq caused a foul smell in Cape Town, prompting inspections by animal welfare officials. The National Council of Societies for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (NSPCA) described the vessel's conditions as deplorable, with faeces and ammonia build-up, leading to the euthanization of several animals. Despite the stench, the ship is expected to continue its voyage to Iraq after making necessary stops for animal feed, vessel stores, bunkers, and medical assessments.
