Israel hit Iran’s most infamous prison, Evin Prison, on Monday. Spanning over five hectares, it's known for holding between 10,000-15,000 inmates, including political prisoners, dual nationals, and Westerners often used by Iran as bargaining chips in negotiations with West, News 18 reported. It's run by Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and IRCG, which reports directly to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
