Iran Confirms Inmates Killed in Israel's Evin Prison Attack Last Week
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. An Israeli strike on Tehran's Evin Prison on Monday killed 71 people, including inmates, staff and visiting family members, Iran's judiciary spokesperson Asghar Jahangir said on Sunday. Newsweek has reached out to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) via email for comment on Sunday. Why It Matters In mid-June, Israel initially struck Tehran and several other cities in "Operation Rising Lion," a campaign it said was meant to preempt a planned Iranian attack and disrupt Iran's nuclear capabilities, which have long been a concern of Israel and the U.S. Iran, which has said its nuclear program is for energy purposes and not nuclear weapons, retaliated. Israeli defense systems—bolstered by U.S. military technology—intercepted nearly all incoming missile fire, according to Israeli officials, although Iran did strike a hospital southern Israel last week. More than 600 Iranians were reported killed by Israeli strikes, and 28 Israelis killed by Iranian strikes, with thousands wounded it both countries. Israel and Iran entered a fragile ceasefire on June 24, the day after Israel struck Evin Prison. Last weekend, the U.S. joined Israel in its war against Iran by bombing three nuclear sites, Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz, in the largest B-2 bomber operation in U.S. history. What To Know On Sunday, Jahangir wrote in Mizan, the Iranian judiciary's outlet, that 71 people were killed in the Israeli strike on Iran's notorious Evin Prison. The update was republished on the official state news outlet, IRNA. The English version of the Mizan article states that, "Prison administrative staff, conscript soldiers, convicted prisoners, families of prisoners who had visited for meetings or judicial follow-ups, and neighbors living near the prison," were killed. It noted that people had come to the prison that day for various follow-ups on legal proceedings. The outlet confirmed that Judge Ali Ghanaatkar, who served as deputy prosecutor of Tehran and the detention center's top prosecutor, was killed in the strikes. It did not identify the others killed. Mizan also reported that foreign journalists from several outlets, including Associated Press and Reuters, participated in a tour of the area. On Saturday, hundreds of thousands of people filled the streets of Iran's capital for a state funeral honoring about 60 Iranians killed in Israeli strikes over the past few weeks, including top military commanders and nuclear scientists.

Evin Prison holds many of the country's political detainees in Iran, housing dissidents, journalists, protesters, and foreign nationals accused of espionage. The prison is one of the apparatuses of the Iranian regime's domestic security apparatus. Human rights organizations have long documented abuse, torture and arbitrary detention inside Evin Prison. Notable former detainees include Narges Mohammadi, a human rights activist and a Nobel Peace Laureate, and Jason Rezaian, a Washington Post journalist who was held there for 544 days on espionage charges while serving as the paper's Tehran bureau chief a decade ago. What People Are Saying Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar posted alleged footage of the bombing after the attack, writing on X, formerly Twitter: "We warned Iran time and again: stop targeting civilians! They continued, including this morning. Our response: Viva la libertad, c*****!" Narges Mohammadi, a human rights activist and a Nobel Peace Laureate, said in a June 28 X post: "Israel's attack on Evin Prison, carried out in broad daylight in the presence of families and visitors, is undoubtedly a clear example of a war families of the detained are unaware of the status or whereabouts of their loved ones. Prisoners from the general wards of Evin Prison have been transferred to prisons around Tehran and are being held in harsh, inhumane, and grueling conditions. Furthermore, no official information has been released regarding the status of prisoners previously held in security wards or solitary confinement." Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian wrote in a Persian in an X post on Saturday: "From the bottom of my heart, I thank you dear people; With love, you bid farewell to the martyrs of our homeland, and our voice of unity reached the ears of the world. We have learned from Husayn ibn Ali (peace be upon him) not to submit to humiliation and not to bow our heads before oppression. Serving such a noble nation is the honor of my life. Forever Iran" What Happens Next The ceasefire between Israel and Iran remains fragile. Trump said the U.S. and Iran are due to hold new talks about the country's nuclear capabilities. "We're going to talk to them next week, with Iran," Trump said at the NATO summit in the Netherlands on Wednesday. "We may sign an agreement. I don't know." On Saturday, Araghchi posted on X, "If President Trump is genuine about wanting a deal, he should put aside the disrespectful and unacceptable tone towards Iran's Supreme Leader, Grand Ayatollah Khamenei, and stop hurting his millions of heartfelt followers."

Iran Remains a Menace in the Americas
In the days following Operation Midnight Hammer, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained 11 Iranian foreign nationals across eight states. One detainee is a former member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. CBS News reported that ICE officials said he has 'admitted connections to Hezbollah.' Another is on the terrorist watch list. Five have previous criminal convictions, according to CBS. We don't know what these people might have been doing in the U.S. But the arrests raise an issue to think about in the aftermath of the strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities: What will Tehran do with the platform of proxies and military alliances that it has spent decades building in the Western Hemisphere now that it's been humiliated by U.S. air power?

After decades in the U.S., Iranians arrested in Trump's deportation drive
Mandonna 'Donna' Kashanian lived in the United States for 47 years, married a U.S. citizen and raised their daughter. She was gardening in the yard of her New Orleans home when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers handcuffed and took her away, her family said. Kashanian arrived in 1978 on a student visa and applied for asylum, fearing retaliation for her father's support of the U.S.-backed shah. She lost her bid, but she was allowed to remain with her husband and child if she checked in regularly with immigration officials, her husband and daughter said. She complied, once checking in from South Carolina during Hurricane Katrina. She is now being held at an immigration detention center in Basile, La., while her family tries to get information. Other Iranians are also getting arrested by immigration authorities after decades in the United States. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security won't say how many people they've arrested, but U.S. military strikes on Iran have fueled fears that there is more to come. 'Some level of vigilance, of course, makes sense, but what it seems like ICE has done is basically give out an order to round up as many Iranians as you can, whether or not they're linked to any threat and then arrest them and deport them, which is very concerning,' said Ryan Costello, policy director of the National Iranian American Council, an advocacy group. Homeland Security did not immediately reply to an email seeking comment on Kashanian's case but have been touting arrests of Iranians. The department announced the arrests of at least 11 Iranians on immigration violations a week ago, during the weekend of the U.S. missile strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said, without elaborating, that it arrested seven Iranians at a Los Angeles-area address that 'has been repeatedly used to harbor illegal entrants linked to terrorism.' The department 'has been full throttle on identifying and arresting known or suspected terrorists and violent extremists that illegally entered this country, came in through Biden's fraudulent parole programs or otherwise,' spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said of the 11 arrests. She didn't offer any evidence of terrorist or extremist ties. Her comment on parole programs referred to former President Biden's expanded legal pathways to entry, which President Trump shut down. Russell Milne, Kashanian's husband, said his wife is not a threat. Her appeal for asylum was complicated because of 'events in her early life,' he explained. A court found an earlier marriage of hers to be fraudulent. But over four decades, Kashanian, 64, built a life in Louisiana. The couple met when she was bartending as a student in the late 1980s. They married and had a daughter. She volunteered with Habitat for Humanity, filmed Persian cooking tutorials on YouTube and was a grandmother figure to the children next door. The fear of deportation always hung over the family, Milne said, but he said his wife did everything that was being asked of her. 'She's meeting her obligations,' Milne said. 'She's retirement age. She's not a threat. Who picks up a grandmother?' While Iranians have been crossing the border illegally for years, especially since 2021, they have faced little risk of being deported to their home countries due to severed diplomatic relations with the U.S. That seems to no longer be the case. The Trump administration has deported hundreds of people, including Iranians, to countries other than their own in an attempt to circumvent diplomatic hurdles with governments that won't take their people back. During Trump's second term, countries including El Salvador, Costa Rica and Panama have taken back noncitizens from the U.S. The administration has asked the Supreme Court to clear the way for several deportations to South Sudan, a war-ravaged country with which it has no ties, after the justices allowed deportations to countries other than those noncitizens came from. The U.S. Border Patrol arrested Iranians 1,700 times at the Mexican border from October 2021 through November 2024, according to the most recent public data available. The Homeland Security Department reported that about 600 Iranians overstayed visas as business or exchange visitors, tourists and students in the 12-month period through September 2023, the most recent report shows. Iran was one of 12 countries subject to a U.S. travel ban imposed by Trump that took effect this month. Some fear ICE's growing deportation arrests will be another blow. In Oregon, an Iranian man was detained by immigration agents this past week while driving to the gym. He was picked up roughly two weeks before he was scheduled for a check-in at ICE offices in Portland, according to court documents filed by his attorney, Michael Purcell. The man, identified in court filings as S.F., has lived in the U.S. for more than 20 years, and his wife and two children are U.S. citizens. S.F. applied for asylum in the U.S. in the early 2000s, but his application was denied in 2002. His appeal failed, but the government did not deport him and he continued to live in the country for decades, according to court documents. Due to 'changed conditions' in Iran, S.F. would face 'a vastly increased danger of persecution' if he were to be deported, Purcell wrote in his petition. 'These circumstances relate to the recent bombing by the United States of Iranian nuclear facilities, thus creating a de facto state of war between the United States and Iran.' S.F.'s long residency in the U.S., his conversion to Christianity and the fact that his wife and children are U.S. citizens 'sharply increase the possibility of his imprisonment in Iran, or torture or execution,' he said. Similarly, Kashanian's daughter said she is worried what will happen to her mother. 'She tried to do everything right,' Kaitlynn Milne said. Chandler, Rush and Spagat write for the Associated Press.
