Recent military strikes on infrastructure in Iran have raised serious human rights concerns, particularly following the attack on the B1 Bridge in Alborz Province.
Official reports confirm that the death toll has reached 13, up from 8 reported on April 2, with 95 injured. Several critically wounded victims later died, increasing the number of fatalities.
The B1 Bridge, a key component of the Tehran–North Highway, is vital for regional transportation. Its targeting raises concerns regarding compliance with international humanitarian law, especially the principles of distinction and proportionality.
This incident is part of a broader escalation of military activity in Iran since late February, posing growing risks to civilians and essential infrastructure.
Emergency services are treating the injured in Karaj and Tehran, while the healthcare system faces increasing pressure. The death toll may rise further.
The incident highlights the urgent need for an independent investigation, accountability, and strict adherence to international obligations to protect civilians and infrastructure.
