Alang Ship-Breaking Yard Shows Signs of Recovery

Imagine a place where old ships go to be taken apart and recycled.

It's called Alang.

After a tough time, Alang is starting to get more old ships to break down.

From April to August of 2025, more ships arrived than last year.

Even though things are looking up, it's still tricky.

Some people think it's not much different on the ground, and the yard operates at a fraction of its capacity.

Things like international competition and stricter environmental rules make it hard to compete.

The government is helping, but it is still a challenging environment.
