Journalist Assaf Rosenzweig (N12) reports that Iranian sources have announced the repair of a railway bridge damaged in US strikes last week, and that it has returned to operation. The bridge was among targets hit during the ongoing US campaign against Iranian infrastructure.
This latest report adds to a series of Iranian claims of infrastructure restoration following US airstrikes. The Zioneer previously reported on July 10 that the central railway line hit by US strikes was restored, and on July 11 that the 'Aqqala' bridge was repaired within 24 hours. The current report, citing Iranian sources, indicates that repair work continues across the country's rail network. The bridge targeted last week is part of the infrastructure that the US has been striking since late June, in what Washington describes as a campaign to degrade Iran's military capabilities. The Iranian reports have not been independently verified by Western sources.
