The National Post Company of the Islamic Republic of Iran, as one of the most infrastructural institutions, plays a very vital and irreplaceable role in the supply chain and distribution of items across the country. In wartime conditions, when the need for uninterrupted services was felt more than before and people were worried about their items, postal staff made every effort to reduce concerns and provide postal services to compatriots and carried out their mission with full capability and a sense of responsibility.
According to ISNA, alongside crisis management, the National Post Company, by accurately identifying citizens’ changing needs in wartime conditions, implemented special services for the welfare of compatriots and to enhance their security. Overall, the postal services sector showed a remarkable performance during the imposed war, and postal staff from the very first hours of the war not only did not leave their workplace but continued to provide their services. / ISNA
