An Israeli airstrike on a bridge in Lebanon has left large parts of the southern region disconnected from rest of country.

The Qasmiyeh bridge In Tyre was largely destroyed after Israel struck it on Sunday.

On Monday, an Israeli airstrike destroyed another bridge on the Litani river in the south.

Monday's strike on the bridge in the southern village of Qaaqaaiyet al-Jisr cut a main link between the southern city of Nabatiyeh and al-Hujair valley region further south.

The strikes come after Israeli officials said the military had been ordered to target additional bridges across the Litani River, in what appears to be a broader effort to disrupt routes allegedly used by Hezbollah.

Israel has previously accused the Iran-backed group of using such infrastructure to move fighters and equipment.
