In Iran, an important road bridge connecting the country's capital, Tehran, with the satellite city of Karaj, was damaged as a result of airstrikes. According to Iranian media reports, the strike directly hit this transport artery, writes The Times of Israel.
According to preliminary estimates, there are casualties as a result of the attack, although the exact number has not yet been specified. In addition to the bridge itself, the strikes also affected other areas of Karaj, indicating a wider scale of the attack.
The damaged B1 bridge is crucial for transport links between the two cities. It is considered the highest bridge in the Middle East and was put into operation quite recently. Its damage could significantly affect traffic and logistics in the region.
The situation remains tense, and the exact consequences of the attack are still being clarified.
