The Deir ez-Zor suspension bridge (Arabic: جسر دير الزور المعلق) is a suspension bridge crossing the Euphrates River in the city of Deir ez-Zor in north-eastern Syria.
The bridge was built by the French construction company Fougerolle (then-under Le Soliditit Françs) in 1927. It is a footbridge crossing the Euphrates river, connecting the Levant (south) with Upper Mesopotamia (north).
