Donald Trump on Thursday (April 2, 2026) said that Iran’s tallest bridge had been destroyed, amid rising tensions in the ongoing conflict in West Asia.
According to reports, the B1 bridge located in Karaj, about 35 km southwest of Tehran, was targeted in strikes. Ghodratollah Seif, Deputy Governor of Alborz Province, said the attack killed eight people and injured 95 others. Independent verification of these figures remains limited due to reporting restrictions.
Trump shared visuals on social media showing smoke rising from the bridge and warned of further strikes if Iran does not agree to end the five-week conflict. He stated that more destruction would follow if negotiations do not take place.
Iran responded strongly, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi saying that attacks on civilian structures would not force the country to surrender. Iranian state media reported multiple strikes, including one that occurred while emergency teams were assisting victims.
The B1 bridge, still under construction, was described as West Asia’s tallest. The situation remains tense, with calls for dialogue likely to play a key role in the coming days.
