Lebanon reports destruction of a bridge that Israel said it would strike

Israel destroyed a bridge in eastern Lebanon, Lebanese official media reports, after Israel’s military warned it would hit two bridges in the area to prevent the transfer of reinforcements to Hezbollah.

“Israeli warplanes targeted the bridge that links Sohmor with Mashghara, leading to its destruction,” the state-run National News Agency says.

Israel’s military had warned that “in order to prevent the transfer of reinforcements and military equipment… the IDF [army] intends to target the Sohmor and Mashghara bridges,” publishing a map identifying two bridges within around 100 meters of each other.
