💨 Abstract

Iranian authorities transferred inmates back to Evin prison, targeted in an Israeli airstrike in June. The first batch was moved from another facility, with repairs completed to accommodate inmates. Despite reports of resistance and alleged beatings, transfers occurred peacefully. The airstrike, part of a 12-day bombardment, resulted in significant casualties, including inmates. Israel's target rationale remains unclear; the airstrike was criticized for violating distinctions between civilian and military targets.
