The recent destruction of bridges in southern Lebanon has led to a critical isolation of the region, particularly affecting Tyre, which is home to approximately 20,000 residents and displaced individuals.

Currently, only one access route remains operational, severely restricting movement and access to essential services for the affected population.

This strategic targeting of infrastructure raises concerns about the long-term implications for regional stability and humanitarian access.
