A suspected Israeli strike hits the gate of Iran’s Evin prison in Tehran, Iranian state TV says

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A suspected Israeli airstrike hit the gate of Iran’s notorious Evin prison in Tehran, Iranian state television reported Monday. Iranian media speculated the strike may be from a drone.

The report shared what appeared to be black-and-white-surveillance footage of the strike. The prison is known for holding dual nationals and Westerners often used by Iran as bargaining chips in negotiations with the West.

Israel did not immediately acknowledge carrying out the strike.
