BREAKING: Prison Break As Israel Blows Up Notorious Iranian Prison Gate Evin jail In Bid To Free Ayatollah’s Fiercest Critics

TEHRAN’S infamous Evin Prison – a pit of torture and executions – has been blitzed by an Israeli airstrike, officials say.

A drone is thought to have blown up the jail’s gates in an effort free the regime’s fiercest critics.

The prison is notorious for shackling political prisoners, journalists and even Brits on bogus charges.

Footage shows a missile shooting directly into the gate, sending mangled bits of metal flying.

Isareli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly called for Iran’s people to rise up against the regime.

Busting out its ardent critics could be an attempt fan the flames of rebellion by returning anti-Ayatollah activists to the streets.

It’s not yet clear whether any inmates have escaped following the rocket blast.

The IDF acknowledged the strike: “Following orders from PM Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz, the IDF is striking regime and security targets in central Tehran — including the Basij HQ, Evin Prison, the “Israel destruction clock,” IRGC internal security HQs, and more.”

Some political prisoners have been banged up in the hellhole for decades.

Reports on the horrific conditions have come from those who manage to make it out.

Marziyeh Amirizadeh, 43, spent 259 days in Evin, Iran’s most notorious prison, where British mother Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was also held.

Here, Marziyeh reveals the horror she endured – and how she rebuilt her life after her release.

Evin Prison was opened in northern Tehran in 1972, one of the final years of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi’s reign before the Shah was overthrown in the Islamic Revolution.

At the time, it was operated by his fearsome security service (SAVAK) who were famed for their ruthless torture and murder of the Shah’s political opponents.

And when the Ayatollah Khomeni took control of Iran, the violence at Evin continued and even escalated.

In the 1980s, tens of thousands of dissidents from one rebel group — the People’s Mujahidin of Iran — were hanged in Evin, in one of the most savage political mass killings in modern history.
