The destruction of the historic Si-Mili Bridge on the route from Masjed Soleiman to Haftkel, following recent floods, brought tears to a Khuzestani citizen. This bridge, recognized as a symbol of the flourishing oil industry in Iran, now burns in the fire of history.
Destruction of a Historical Symbol
Video footage of the destruction of this bridge depicts the end of one of the symbols of oil discovery in Iran. The Si-Mili Bridge, built in the early days of oil discovery to connect oil-rich cities, was listed among the monuments of the oil industry and had been recognized as a historical symbol in Masjed Soleiman for a century.
This destruction not only obliterated a historical monument but also brought tears to many Khuzestani citizens. Is this the end of the destruction of other historical symbols?
