Iranian lawmaker warns ILO of economic fallout from Israeli attack

TEHRAN (Iran News) A senior Iranian lawmaker says the Israeli attack on Iran in June put workers’ job security at risk and caused serious damage to livelihoods.

Mohammad Sargazi, head of the Iranian Parliament’s legal and judicial commission, made the remarks during a meeting with International Labor Organization (ILO) Director-General Gilbert F. Houngbo in Geneva on Saturday, where he was attending the Global Human Rights Summit.

Sargazi said the strikes had damaged Iran’s economic and industrial infrastructure, disrupting business activity and reducing job opportunities across various sectors.

He also cited the combined impact of sanctions and military attacks, which he said had lowered workers’ incomes, increased unemployment, and limited access to essential services such as health and education.

“These conditions have created serious problems for vulnerable workers,” Sargazi added.
