The Moment of the Qasmiyeh Bridge Blast by Israel (VIDEO)

The Israeli army announced that it had struck the Qasmiyeh Bridge over the Litani River in southern Lebanon, warning in advance of the bombing. The bridge is located on the coastal highway and is considered strategically important. Israel claims that Hezbollah fighters use these routes to move to southern Lebanon, where clashes have intensified in recent days. The attack comes after a previous warning from the Israeli army to bomb another bridge over the Litani River, due to Hezbollah activities and the movement of fighters in southern Lebanon under the cover of the civilian population. The escalation of clashes in southern Lebanon has led to air strikes and bombardments in various cities. According to Al Jazeera Arabic, bombardments have been reported in the cities of Arnoun, Zawtar al-Sharqiyah and Yamar al-Saqif, while an air strike also took place on the outskirts of Yamar al-Saqif. The destruction of the Qasmiyeh Bridge is another step in the escalation of the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah. The attack on the Qasmiyeh Bridge highlights the tension in the region and Israel's attempt to limit Hezbollah's activities in southern Lebanon. The destruction of transport infrastructure, such as bridges, aims to disrupt the movement of fighters and weaken Hezbollah's ability to conduct operations.
