The bridge is located in Yahyaabad village in Kashan County, the IRNA quoted Akbar Salehi, Isfahan’s deputy governor for political and security affairs, as saying.

An area near Kashan’s train station was also targeted with three projectiles at around 13:00 local time (0930 GMT), damaging a number of nearby residential units as well as cars.

Meanwhile, Tasnim news agency reported that a number of road bridges west of Iran’s central Qom province were also struck by U.S. and Israeli projectiles on Tuesday, without causing any casualties.

On Tuesday, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) targeted an Israeli-owned container ship trying to transfer military equipment to Israel through the United Arab Emirates without crossing the Strait of Hormuz.

Additionally, the IRGC warned that if the U.S. army crosses the red line in attacking civilian targets, Iran’s response “will go beyond the region,” stressing, “We have not been and will not be the initiators of attacks on civilian targets, but we will not hesitate to retaliate vile aggressions against civilian facilities.”

U.S. President Donald Trump previously threatened to strike and destroy bridges and power plants across Iran.

The developments came amid heightened tensions following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran starting on Feb. 28, to which Iran and its allies responded with attacks on Israeli and U.S. interests across the Middle East.
