Italy's Supreme Court will review an order to shutter the former Ilva steelworks in Taranto, risking 8,000 jobs in Italy's manufacturing sector. The legal battle tests Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's push to keep the plant alive ahead of national elections next year. The facility represents the country's sole integrated steelworks, producing metal from iron ore and coal through blast-furnace operations.
