Israel's largest refinery, Haifa, has confirmed it was affected by an Iranian missile strike that hit infrastructure "essential to its operations" on March 20, and is in the process of restoring production.
A statement from Bazan Group, which operates the 197,000 barrels/day Haifa refinery, said the facility was damaged by an attack on March 19, which hit its electricity infrastructure and an area near one of its administrative buildings.
Additionally, "essential" equipment located outside the complex and owned by a third-party operator was taken offline, it said, without providing further details on the infrastructure hit.
The external damage was discovered overnight after attacks across northern Israel, the Bazan statement said, adding that returning the equipment to normal operations could take "a few days".
