President Trump has warned Tehran of more attacks to come, after the United States and Israel launched strikes on civilian infrastructure in Iran. On Thursday, the U.S. bombed a major bridge under construction in the city of Karaj west of Tehran, then attacked it again, about an hour later, as emergency crews were assisting the wounded. Iran says the “double tap” strike on the B1 suspension bridge killed eight people and wounded nearly 100 others. The head of the construction company building the bridge said it had absolutely no military uses, and warned its destruction will worsen traffic for more than a dozen provinces in Iran.
Mr. Rahmani: “If this is help, please redefine that term for me. They destroy infrastructure to push the country backward and weaken the spirit of our people.”
Separately, Iran says U.S.-Israeli airstrikes have destroyed the Pasteur Institute of Iran, a century-old medical research center that’s played a key role in combating infectious diseases in the Middle East.
Iran’s Red Crescent says U.S.-Israeli strikes have hit more than 113,000 civilian sites, including homes and schools, killing more than 2,000 people, including women and children, with at least 21,000 injured. Maria Martinez is the head of the Red Crescent’s delegation for Iran.
Maria Martinez: “We estimate that at least 3% of the population has been displaced. This represents around 1 million families, 3 million people.”
