Haifa Port, Iran
Haifa Port Company on Sunday confirmed that all employees are safe and that port assets and infrastructure remain fully secure and operational amid escalating hostilities in West Asia.
Port Confirms Safety And Operational Stability
In a statement issued through an Adani Group spokesperson, Haifa Port Company said it is closely monitoring the evolving security situation. The port is coordinating with Israel’s Ministry of Transport and Road Safety and operating in line with official instructions.
“We remain committed to ensuring the safety of our people and the continuity of operations, maintaining stability for Israel’s supply chain and international trade,” the spokesperson said.
The Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ), along with Israel’s Gadot Group, acquired the Port of Haifa in 2022 after winning a government tender to privatize the country’s second-largest port. The facility is considered a strategic gateway for Israel’s imports and exports.
Escalation Between Israel, US, And Iran
The confirmation from Haifa Port comes against the backdrop of a sharp military escalation in the region. On Saturday, the United States and Israel reportedly carried out joint missile strikes on Iran, with explosions reported in Tehran and other major cities.
Iran responded with retaliatory strikes targeting Israeli and US assets across multiple Gulf states. Multiple blasts were also reported in Tehran and other locations.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, was killed in an Israeli airstrike on Tehran, according to reports, marking a significant development in the unfolding conflict.
