A highway bridge linking Iran’s capital, Tehran, to the western city of Karaj was hit by fresh airstrikes a short while ago, Iranian media reports.

The strikes were carried out by the American military. The IDF denies striking the bridge.

The Fars news agency reports that the B1 bridge was hit while “rescue forces were assisting the victims of the first attack.”

Two people were killed in the earlier strike, according to Fars.
