Hundreds of workers in Bosnia and Herzegovina protested the closure of the 130-year-old Zenica steel mill on Friday afternoon, risking thousands of industrial jobs. The shutdown follows the February closure of the Lukavac coke factory and the recent bankruptcy of the Nova Ljubija iron ore mines. The collapse of the country's last steel mill threatens the viability of the regional heavy industry supply chain.
