Iranian Railway Infrastructure Get Hit
(MENAFN) Israeli aerial bombardments struck 10 railway routes and bridges throughout Iran on Tuesday, occurring just hours after Israel issued threats to attack rail systems nationwide. The strikes appeared to follow through on earlier warnings aimed at crippling transportation networks.
According to Army Radio, the assaults focused on locations reportedly utilized for moving weapons and missile launch platforms. Meanwhile, Iranian media outlets indicated that the railway infrastructure in several regions was hit by coordinated US-Israeli strikes.
Details regarding casualties or the extent of destruction were not immediately disclosed, leaving the overall impact uncertain.
The escalation followed closely after the Israeli military advised Iranian citizens to refrain from train travel and to stay away from railway stations across the country, signaling the likelihood of imminent attacks.
Tensions in the region have continued to intensify since Israel and the United States initiated a large-scale offensive against Iran on Feb. 28, which resulted in over 1,340 deaths, including then-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Iranian officials have not recently updated the death toll.
In response, Iran has launched retaliatory drone and missile attacks targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf nations that host US military assets. These counterstrikes have led to casualties, infrastructure damage, and significant disruptions to global markets and air travel.
