Russian ballistic missile strikes in August and September disabled Ukraine's three remaining integrated steel plants — Zaporizhstal and Kametstal, both owned by Metinvest, and ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih — with both owners confirming that facilities are now idle and giving no repair timeline, the Financial Times reported on Sept. 20. The three plants, which employ more than 15,000 people between them, account for roughly 90% of Ukraine's steel output.
