Summary

The Cersanit plant in Zviahel has been forced out of service following drone attacks attributed to Russian occupiers. The facility, which produces ceramic tiles and plumbing equipment, sustained significant damage to its building and manufacturing lines during strikes that occurred in September and October 2026. Management decided to cease all production activities at the site, citing the extent of the destruction and the inability to ensure the safety of employees due to persistent security risks and frequent air raids.
