US, Israeli strikes hit pharmaceutical company producing cancer drugs: Iran government

U.S.-Israeli strikes hit on Tuesday one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in Iran which produces anesthetic and cancer drugs, the Iranian government said.

"During the U.S. and Zionist regime attacks on civilian centers, on the morning of Tuesday, one of the largest companies producing anti-cancer, anesthetic and specialized medicines was damaged and the drug production line was damaged," the government said in a post on X.

The pharmaceutical company is owned by the Social Security Investment Company, a state-run holding firm managing pension funds.
