俄罗斯对乌克兰钢铁工业发动了一场持续的导弹轰炸战役,造成了该国经济命脉之一的严重破坏。扎波罗热钢铁厂在8月和9月遭遇四轮攻击,俄方共发射了17枚导弹,导致该厂8人死亡、31人受伤,8500名员工的工厂已无限期关闭1。同样的灾难也降临到克里沃罗格地区:9月25日,当地的阿赛洛米塔尔钢铁厂在五周内遭多次袭击后宣布无法重启,造成5名工人死亡1。
这一系列攻击对乌克兰的整体经济和防卫能力构成了深远威胁。战前,乌克兰冶金矿业占国内生产总值的10%,占出口总额的三分之一,为超过50万人提供就业1。自2014年以来,乌克兰的冶金工厂数量已从12个降至6个1。金属公司的税收对当地政府至关重要,占部分地方政府支出的30%至70%1。战前该产业每年投资达20至30亿美元,如今这一投资流已因战争而中断1。此外,港口基本被封锁,出口货物遭袭的风险达到50%1,进一步加剧了这一产业的困境,可能导致数十万人失业及人道主义危机。
Russia has launched a sustained campaign of missile strikes against Ukraine's steel sector, inflicting severe damage on the country's industrial backbone. The Zaporizhzhia steel plant was forced to shut down indefinitely after enduring four waves of attacks in August and September, which killed eight workers and wounded 31 others.1 The facility, which employs 8,500 people, was struck by a total of 17 missiles.1 In a separate blow, the ArcelorMittal steel plant in Kryvyi Rih announced it cannot restart operations after being targeted multiple times over a five-week period, with five workers killed in those attacks.1
The destruction of these major industrial sites threatens Ukraine's economic stability and defense capacity. Before the war, the metallurgical and mining sectors accounted for 10 percent of Ukraine's GDP and one-third of its exports, while providing employment to over 500,000 people.1 The scope of industrial loss has been dramatic: Ukraine had 12 metallurgical factories in 2014, but only six remain by 2025.1 Metal companies contribute 30 to 70 percent of revenues for local governments in affected regions, compounding the economic fallout.1 The crisis is further exacerbated by blocked ports and a 50-50 risk to export vessels, severely restricting Ukraine's ability to sell remaining production.1 Before the conflict, the metallurgical industry attracted annual investments of $2 to $3 billion, representing crucial capital now redirected away from reconstruction and development.1
