Israel struck Iran’s most notorious prison in its latest airstrikes Monday, as dramatic footage showed a missile slamming into its entrance.
The strike on Tehran’s infamous Evin prison came as Israel also hit the headquarters of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards, the country’s elite military force.
A number of prisoners were able to escape the heavily fortified prison in Iran’s capital where thousands of political prisoners, journalists, academics and human rights activists have been locked up since the Islamic Revolution in 1970, according to Iran International, an outlet that opposes Tehran’s leadership.
Shocking security footage shows the strike blows the prison doors clean off their hinges, triggering a huge cloud of black smoke.
The heavily fortified center in Iran’s capital is where the Mullahs have kept thousands of political prisoners, journalists, academics and human rights activists locked up since the Islamic Revolution in 1970.
Further Israeli strikes on Tehran have hit the headquarters of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards, the country’s elite military force, an Israel Defense Forces spokesman said.
Another strike hit a clock in Palestine Square in Tehran, which symbolically counted down to the “destruction of Israel” and was installed by the regime in 2017, Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz said.
