US-Israeli airstrikes have damaged two major steel plants in Iran, reports AFP, citing Iranian media.

“Minutes ago, the American-Zionist enemy targeted the Khuzestan Steel (in southwest Iran) and Mobarakeh Steel factories in Isfahan (central Iran) in two separate attacks,” the Fars news agency said, with state broadcaster IRIB also reporting the strikes.

“Rescue forces have immediately arrived at the scene of the incident,” Fars wrote.
