Israeli pesticides maker ADAMA says that debris from an interception of an Iranian missile attack caused damage to a warehouse containing finished products, along with production equipment and systems.

ADAMA, part of Chinese-owned Syngenta Group, says there were no injuries from the attack that hit its Neot Hovav chemicals plant in southern Israel, which is now closed.

“Efforts are underway to resume normal operations in a gradual and safe manner as soon as possible,” ADAMA says in a statement to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

“The Company is assessing the impact on its operations and financial results, as well as the expected timeline for restoring the affected facilities to full operation.”
