An Israeli strike has severed the last remaining bridge connecting southern Lebanon to the rest of the country, a senior Lebanese security official told Reuters. The official stated the strike "shattered" the bridge and left no possibility of repairing it. This action further isolates the southern region amid ongoing hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah. The destruction of this critical infrastructure complicates civilian movement and aid delivery in the area.
