France Condemns Israeli Attack on Tehran Prison

(MENAFN) France has accused Israel of putting its citizens at risk by carrying out an attack on Evin Prison in Tehran on Monday. Iranian authorities reported that parts of the prison sustained damage during the strike. A video shared on social media seems to show that the main entrance of the facility was specifically targeted.

In a message posted on X, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot described the strike as “unacceptable” and emphasized that it endangered French nationals Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris.

Both were detained in Iran in 2022 while visiting as tourists and accused of espionage, allegations they deny. Kohler’s sister, Noemie, criticized the attack as “irresponsible,” stating it put the lives of inmates “in mortal danger.”

Barrot also mentioned that he had spoken with his Iranian counterpart and was assured that Kohler and Paris were safe and unharmed following the incident.
