US and Israel Strike Iran Tallest Bridge Near Tehran, Killing Eight; Iran Vows Retaliation

US and Israeli forces destroyed the B1 bridge connecting Tehran and Karaj, Iran tallest bridge, killing eight people and wounding 95; Iran vowed strikes on regional infrastructure as Trump warned more military action is coming.

The military forces of the United States and Israel conducted a precise strike on the B1 bridge connecting Tehran and Karaj, completely destroying Iran's highest bridge. The U.S. Department of Defense stated that the strike aimed to sever Iran's armed forces' main supply route for secretly transporting missiles and warheads. According to Iranian state media, the attack resulted in eight deaths and ninety-five injured. The operation represents a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict. International observers are concerned about the broader implications of this military action.
