Mobarakeh, the largest industrial company in Iran and the biggest steel complex in the Middle East, was considered a cornerstone of the country’s economy.
Iran’s largest steel producer, Mobarakeh Steel Company, has reported heavy losses to its production units following joint US-Israeli strikes on its facilities during the war, with attacks hitting multiple sites in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province. Mobarakeh, the largest industrial company in Iran and the biggest steel complex in the Middle East, was considered a cornerstone of the country’s economy. Reactions on social media platforms reflected both anger at the regime and growing concern over the broader implications of the strikes.
“Mobarakeh was the pride of Iran’s steel industry and a supplier of raw materials for thousands of factories. The most prominent company in Iran is gone,” one journalist wrote. Another journalist said, “Unfortunately, I have learned from two independent sources that the extent of the damage to Mobarakeh is severe, and there are also casualties. It appears that this key industry will not return to production for a long time.”
Criticism of Iran’s leadership also intensified online. “It is difficult for all of us to hear this news. But we must remember that we need to continue along this path and move beyond the cursed regime of the Islamic Republic. A free Iran can be rebuilt, but Iran in the hands of bloodthirsty terrorists will always move toward destruction. As long as the regime does not surrender, we are likely to hear more bad news like this. To hell with the Islamic Republic,” another post read. (Read More)
