According to village Akim Adilzhan Kurbaniyazov, a ban on the export of livestock and meat products was introduced in Ulken Aksu.

It is important to emphasize that there is no order to ban the movement of people in Ulken Aksu. Villagers are free to leave the village, but are advised to observe personal hygiene and avoid contact with potentially infected animals or meat products.
