A new report from N12's Barak Ravid provides additional details on the US strike, specifying that cruise missiles were used to hit two railway bridges in northern Iran. The attack is the first US strike on Iranian infrastructure since the April 8 ceasefire.
At 05:52 Jerusalem, Barak Ravid (N12) reported that the US military used cruise missiles in striking two railway bridges in northern Iran — the first US attack on Iranian infrastructure since the April 8 ceasefire. The detail was added in a follow-up to earlier reports from the early hours of Thursday.
The story unfolded over several hours. At 02:36 Jerusalem, the Israeli news outlet Ynet reported a railway bridge attack in northwestern Iran, without identifying the perpetrator or providing details. At 03:21 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported, citing Barak Ravid (N12), that the US military had struck two railway bridges. A follow-up bulletin at 03:27 Jerusalem confirmed the report, citing a senior US official. The latest update at 05:52 specified that cruise missiles were used in the attack.
The strike is part of a broader US military campaign against Iranian military infrastructure that has been ongoing for weeks, as The Zioneer has reported. The campaign has included strikes on air defenses, command centers, and missile depots across Iran, including in the south.
No official Iranian response has been reported, and the reports remain based on Israeli media and a single US official. The initial Ynet report referenced a single bridge, while subsequent reports describe two bridges — the discrepancy has not been addressed.
