For me, hell was not the moment Israel attacked; hell was the moment they wouldn't open the door [of the cell] for us, says Motahareh Goonei, who was in solitary confinement at Evin Prison when it was struck by missiles on June 23. This incident marked the deadliest Israeli airstrike on Iranian soil, resulting in the deaths of at least 80 individuals, including prison staff, inmates, and visitors. The Israel Defense Forces claim the facility was being used for intelligence operations. Human Rights Watch reported that the airstrikes were indiscriminately conducted, suggesting they may constitute a war crime. Eyewitness accounts detail the chaos within the prison as inmates attempted to rescue guards and medical personnel amid thick smoke and ongoing fear of further attacks.
