Since the start of the war with Hezbollah on March 2, the Israeli army has destroyed five major bridges over the Litani River, which divides southern Lebanon into two parts. The Israeli army accuses Hezbollah of using the bridges «to transfer reinforcements and weapons» to the border area. Beirut, AFP — The Lebanese army announced on Wednesday that it had evacuated a vital bridge in the south of the country after receiving an «Israeli threat to target it». This is the last bridge connecting the southern and northern parts of the Litani River in the Tyre area. Last week, a bridge in the western Bekaa region (east), adjacent to southern Lebanon, was also destroyed.
