The IDF struck the South Pars petrochemical facility near Asaluyeh in southern Iran, the largest such facility in Iran, Defense Minister Israel Katz confirmed on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The facility is no longer functioning, he stated, indicating that IDF strikes on two of Iran’s petrochemical facilities, which are responsible for 85% of Iran’s petrochemical exports, had “taken them out of use.”<\/p>\n
