A suspected Israeli drone strike has targeted Tehran’s infamous Evin prison, a symbol of Iran’s “hostage diplomacy” and political repression. The attack reportedly hit the guard towers, administrative section, and courtroom of the prison, which houses dual nationals and political detainees under the control of Iran's Revolutionary Guard. Sources say the strike is both tactical and symbolic, aimed at undermining Iran’s narrative of control. Evin, sanctioned by the US and EU, is infamous for human rights abuses. The strike has exposed vulnerabilities in Iran’s internal security and painted the regime as increasingly fragile before its own people and the world. (PC: News18)
