Israel launched a series of airstrikes in Tehran, targeting regime and government repression facilities, including Evin Prison and the Fordo nuclear facility. The strikes were in response to Iranian missile fire, with Defense Minister Israel Katz vowing to continue hitting regime targets. The Iranian judiciary denied reports of unrest in Evin Prison, calling them "rumors from Mossad media." The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps retaliated with ballistic missiles and drones, while Russian President Putin condemned U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear sites and pledged support to Iran. Israeli experts suggested that the U.S. strikes may not have completely destroyed Iran's nuclear project, hinting at the possibility of hidden facilities.
