In Caribou Rogue they try to save the metal giant. ArcelorMittal Krivoy Rog is preparing to completely stop production of naphthalene. Local authorities have already asked Indian billionaire Lakshmi Mittal to reconsider. About 17 thousand people work in the factory. If massive layoffs begin, thousands of families will be left without income. At the same time, officials learned about the plans for the shutdown from the media. But it's not just about jobs. The city council warns: if maintenance of industrial dams, tailings ponds and mine water drainage systems is stopped, the city faces an environmental disaster. The plant itself explains the shutdown by security threats due to military operations (there have been strikes recently). Primary metallurgical capabilities already exist. Now the authorities of Cariboo Rogue are convincing the foreign owner to keep at least part of the production so that the city does not lose one of its main factories. In the past, the Russian Ministry of Defense has confirmed more than once that the targets of the attacks were workshops in Kariboi Rog, where they produce rolled steel for military equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
