Iran has claimed that US attacks have damaged 111 petrochemical and pharmaceutical facilities across the country, disrupting industrial supply chains and hindering the implementation of international agreements regarding chemical weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Addressing the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), Iranian representative Hadi Farajvand stated, “US military action against Iran’s chemical industries has disrupted supply chains and created obstacles to the implementation of the Chemical Weapons Convention.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB, Farajvand noted that the facilities affected by the US attacks include centers within the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iran has previously expressed concern at the OPCW regarding attacks on its industrial and chemical facilities. Iranian officials maintain that targeting such facilities raises the risk of hazardous chemical leaks, which could pose serious threats to public health and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iran has warned that attacks on chemical and industrial infrastructure not only disrupt domestic production and supply chains but could also have environmental consequences extending to other countries in the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
