US President Donald Trump touts an American strike on what he calls Iran’s biggest bridge, pledging that similar strikes will follow if Tehran doesn’t agree to Washington’s ceasefire proposal to end the war.
“The biggest bridge in Iran comes tumbling down, never to be used again — Much more to follow!” Trump writes in a Truth Social post that also includes footage of the strike on a highway bridge linking Tehran to the western city of Karaj.
“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 says.
The US to date has largely avoided targeting Iranian civilian infrastructure and even warned Israel against hitting Iranian energy sites, as Washington seeks to avoid turning Iran into a failed state.
But Trump appears determined to further ramp up the pressure against the Islamic Republic, even as the latter doesn’t appear poised to accept Washington’s ceasefire demands.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
