'Biggest bridge' in Iran destroyed: Trump
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday night the destruction of the 'biggest bridge' in Iran and asked Tehran to make a deal before it is too late.
He warned that much more would follow before there is nothing left of what could still become a great country (Iran).
He, however, did not identify the bridge.
'The biggest bridge in Iran comes tumbling down, never to be used again — Much more to follow! IT IS TIME FOR IRAN TO MAKE A DEAL BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE, AND THERE IS NOTHING LEFT OF WHAT STILL COULD BECOME A GREAT COUNTRY,' Trump said on his social media platform.
Trump also posted a video of the strike on his social media platform.
Although Trump did not give any more details, Iranian authorities said that at least two people were killed and several others injured in the strike.
The bridge (B1 Bridge), also known as Tehran-Karaj Bridge, in the city of Karaj approximately 40 km west of Tehran, was hit be US and Israeli Air Force.
Iranian media and officials described it as the "tallest bridge in the Middle East".
Part of the Karaj Northern Bypass, it was designed as a vital transport link to cut travel time between Tehran and Karaj from one hour to roughly 10 minutes.
The bridge was a landmark infrastructure project that was nearing completion when it was targeted, indicating that the bridge was under construction.
The strike is part of a broader campaign targeting Iranian infrastructure, which has also included attacks on steel plants, power substations, and pharmaceutical facilities.
