Fifth Bridge, Road bridge in Mosul, Iraq.
The Fifth Bridge extends across the Tigris River with a span of 1,940 meters, connecting the eastern and western sections of Mosul city.
The bridge, constructed during the 1980s, stood until November 2016 when coalition forces targeted it during military operations against ISIL forces.
The Fifth Bridge represents a vital link in Mosul's transportation network, enabling the movement of residents between different neighborhoods and communities.
The structure functions as a primary crossing point for vehicles and pedestrians, facilitating daily transportation needs for the local population.
Following its destruction in 2016, the bridge became part of reconstruction initiatives aimed at restoring essential infrastructure in northern Iraq.
