Iran’s Major Steel Plants Cease Operations Following Repeated Attacks
Iranian steel production faces a significant setback as two major plants in Khuzestan and Isfahan are forced to halt operations due to ongoing US-Israeli strikes.
Reports indicate that it may take up to a year for production to resume at these facilities, which are critical for the manufacturing of various industrial and military products, including missiles and drones. Additionally, a fuel depot near Mashhad’s airport has reportedly been struck, resulting in a fire. These developments were reported on April 3, 2026, by Deutschlandfunk.
