Israel Kills 80 in Targeted Evin Prison Strike Tehran

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, which escalated into war in mid-2025, has seen significant military and humanitarian developments. Israel has conducted major strikes on Iranian targets, including a deadly precision airstrike on Tehran’s Evin Prison, killing approximately 80 people, including prisoners, staff, and nearby residents; the IDF justified the attack by claiming the prison was used for intelligence operations against Israel. Survivors describe harrowing conditions during the strike, with prisoners initially trapped and guards blocking their escape, yet prisoners also helped each other and injured guards amidst the chaos. Iran has condemned the Israeli attacks as gross violations of international law, emphasizing the targeting of civilian infrastructure and relief workers, and is pursuing legal and human rights actions against Israel’s aggression. Meanwhile, Israel continues military operations, including destroying Hamas tunnels near its border and intercepting weapon-smuggling drones from Egypt, while the E3 nations initiate snapback sanctions against Iran. The conflict, marked by significant casualties and geopolitical tension, is expected to continue until at least 2026, with ongoing regional and international ramifications.
