The statement specifically targeted desalination plants—facilities that convert seawater into drinking water and serve as critical civilian infrastructure for Iran’s population. Desalination plants are particularly vital in Iran due to the country’s ongoing water scarcity issues. These facilities provide clean drinking water to millions of Iranians, especially in coastal regions where alternative water sources are limited.
