Ukraine's steel production has been brought close to a standstill for the first time in a century, RaiNews24 reports. Five Russian ballistic missiles struck the Kamianske steelworks on September 5, destroying blast furnaces, killing five workers and forcing the facility to close. Mining and metallurgy account for more than 6% of Ukraine's GDP and 30% of its exports. Around 70,000 people work directly in the industry, while up to 500,000 could lose income including related businesses. #Ukraine
