Israel struck two bridges over Lebanon's Litani River, defence minister says

JERUSALEM, March 18 (Reuters) - Israel's ​Defence Minister ‌Israel Katz ​said on Wednesday that the military struck and destroyed two additional bridges over Lebanon's Litani River, saying they were used by the Iran-aligned Hezbollah group to smuggle weapons south.

He did not specify where the bridges were located.

"This is a clear message to the Lebanese government, Israel will not allow Hezbollah to use Lebanese state infrastructure," he said.

Israel destroyed a bridge in southern Lebanon on Friday and dropped leaflets in Beirut threatening Gaza-scale devastation.
