Israel Destroys Bridge in Lebanon, Threatens Gaza-Scale Destruction

Israel Destroys Bridge in Lebanon

Israel continued its military strikes in Lebanon, targeting key infrastructure and dropping warnings of potential devastation similar to that experienced in Gaza during the conflict with Hamas.

On March 13, 2026, a bridge over the Litani River in southern Lebanon was destroyed by an Israeli airstrike, marking a significant escalation in the conflict. The strike also involved the distribution of leaflets in Beirut, threatening further destruction and urging Lebanese citizens to strip Hezbollah of their weapons.

Lebanon's interior minister reported that the country's shelters were unable to accommodate all displaced individuals, highlighting the urgent humanitarian crisis. The conflict has led to numerous casualties and displacement, with international organizations calling for emergency funding to assist affected populations.
