Iran’s Khuzestan Steel says repairs may take up to a year after strikes

 

Iran’s Khuzestan Steel Company said on Thursday that repairs to damaged facilities could take between six months and one year after recent strikes.

Mehran Pakbin, deputy for operations at the company, said all modules and steelmaking furnaces at the complex in Ahvaz had been damaged.

Last week that US and Israeli strikes hit two of the country’s largest steel producers, including Mobarakeh Steel Company and Khuzestan Steel.

Pakbin said restarting the units would take at least six months and up to a year, adding the company aimed to rebuild using domestic expertise.
