The historical nosoarea of lumpy skin disease spread to countries of South and Eastern Africa (Guinea, Mozambique, Botswana, Zimbabwe and RSA) and North Africa (Egypt, Bahrein, Kuwait, Oman, etc.). In the latter half of the last century outbreaks of lumpy skin disease were diagnosed in Israel, Palestine and Lebanon. In subsequent years the disease was detected in Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Greece and Syria. The wide spread of lumpy skin disease was reported in 2013 from countries of the Middle East region (Turkey, Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, Iraq, Egypt). According to data of national veterinary services for 2014 bovine lumpy skin disease was recorded in Turkey (230 outbreaks), Lebanon (32 outbreaks), Azerbaijan and Iraq (16 outbreaks in each country), Egypt and Iran (6 outbreaks in each country). In 2014-2015 the disease was diagnosed in Cyprus and Greece. As reported by the OIE lumpy skin disease spread in territories of 12 Middle East countries. It testifies that lumpy skin disease is endemic in Africa and in the Middle East. In Azerbaijan 16 outbreaks of lumpy skin disease were registered in 2014 affecting four districts – Agdashsky, Bilyasuvarsky, Dzhalilabadsky and Udzharsky located on the Kura riversides.
