Defeated Iran massacres 10 anti-regime prisoners and blames Israeli airstrike as Ayatollah exacts revenge on OWN people

IRAN’S ruthless regime massacred defenceless inmates at a prison before blaming their deaths on shrapnel from airstrikes, insiders said.

It comes as sources warn the wounded regime is using the smokescreen of conflict to unleash a brutal crackdown and execution spree.

Cold-blooded regime dictators have also ordered the arrests of hundreds after allegedly some have links to arch-foe Israel.

Iran’s intelligence services detained at least 26 people accusing them of collaborating with the enemy – and three prisoners were hanged for allegedly spying for Israel.

Iranian insiders told The Sun how supreme leader Ali Khamenei is following a “disturbing pattern” of enforcing bloody clampdowns during periods of unrest.

It comes as the chorus of voices calling for the Ayatollah’s callous regime to be toppled grows louder following a monumental effort from Israel and the US to blitz critical nuclear sites.

An Iranian insider said: “The prison massacre now stands as another stain on Tehran’s human rights record – and a sobering reminder of what unchecked tyranny can unleash behind closed walls.”

Apparent exploitation of the focus on the conflict has seen an escalation in executions and political prisoners subject to horrendous conditions as the defeated regime exacts revenge on its own people.

As Israeli missiles rained down on a nearby military site on June 16, panicked inmates at Dizel-Abad Prison in Kermanshah begged to be moved to safety.

But they were instead met with a hail of bullets from the regime’s merciless enforcers in a “deliberate and cold-blooded act”, a witness said.

The source from within the prison said: “The prisoners insisted they be moved from areas where windows had shattered and where they feared further missile strikes.

“The regime’s answer was bullets.

“The special forces opened fire directly at unarmed, defenseless inmates who were merely trying to flee a danger zone.”

Insiders said the prisoners faced live ammunition after guards began beating inmates when they tried to breach internal doors in a bid to get to safety.

At least ten people were killed and a further 30 injured.

Regime authorities are now said to be attempting to cover-up their deaths.

One source said: “Officials are planning to falsely attribute the deaths to shrapnel from the airstrike, not their own gunfire.”

Well-placed sources inside Iran said at least 140 executions were recorded between May 22 and June 21 – making the harrowing toll of 398 for the three months since March 21.

Iran’s execution regime laid bar by man who’s on death row for 25 years

ONE of Iran’s longest-serving prisoners has exposed the disturbing mechanisms the regime uses to put inmates to death.

Saeed Masouri, who has spent 25 years behind bars, also revealed how the execution rate has spiralled in a harrowing letter written behind bars.

Masouri, who was arrested for his affiliation with the resistance unit People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran, has now told of the secret process behind executions.

Psychological torture, threats against family and sham trials are all used as tools by the regime to condemn its enemies to death on trumped-up charges.

Masouri’s emotional letter was smuggled out of the notorious Ghezel Hesar prison in Iran and shared with The Sun from Iran Human Rights Monitor.

“It is often said that every criminal act is preceded by criminal preparations, hidden beneath the surface,” the 60-year-old wrote in a letter to the UN.

“For instance, when an execution is carried out, the inhumane and rights-violating acts that preceded it remain hidden from view.

“Formal steps like prosecution, indictment, and trial are mere facades. Every detail, from A to Z, is orchestrated by these security agencies.”

Most capital punishments have been enforced at Qezelhessar, Adel Abad (Shiraz), Birjand, Qom Central, and Dastgerd (Isfahan) prisons.

Between June 16 and June 25, six people were executed after being accused of espionage, figures shared with The Sun from the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) show.

On Wednesday, Edris Ali, Azad Shojaei, and Rasoul Ahmad Mohammad were hanged in Urmia Prison on claims they were spying for Israel.

Earlier executions on similar charges include Mohammadamin Mahdavi Shayesteh in Qezelhessar on June 23, Majid Masibi in Dastgerd on June 22, and Esmail Fekri in Qezelhessar on June 16.

The people of Iran, in their century-long struggle, at tremendous and bloody cost, have repeatedly rejected the dictatorships of both Shah and Sheikh through successive uprisings.

Sweeping arrests are also plaguing Iran’s population – with around 700 people understood to have been detained with reported links to a “spy network”.

Meanwhile this week Khamenei’s cranks hastily transferred shackled and handcuffed inmates from three wards of the notorious Evin Prison using 20 buses.

Male prisoners were sent to Greater Tehran Penitentiary on Monday night, while female convicts were dispatched to Qarchak Prison.

Sources said during the rushed transfer, sickly inmates were deprived of the chance to collect important medications.

Prisoners sent to Hall 3, Section 2 of Greater Tehran Penitentiary have also been crammed 40 people a cell in rooms barely fit for half the amount, insiders said.

They added: “Sanitary conditions are extremely poor, with only one bathroom available for the entire hall.”

Female prisoners meanwhile have been denied any contact with their families – with their loved ones increasingly worried about their fate.

It has led to renewed calls from veteran campaigners for a global condemnation of Iran’s human rights violations.

Hossein Abedini, of resistance group NCRI, warned Iran’s regime accelerates its repression as an act of intimidation.

Abedini, the deputy director of the NCRI’s UK office, told The Sun: “It is crucial to remember that the ongoing struggle in Iran for the past four decades has been between the Iranian people and their resistance against the oppressive religious dictatorship.

“As Khamenei stated on March 31, he perceives the real threat to his regime not from military attacks, but from the uprising of the Iranian people and the resistance units of the Iranian resistance.

“The desperate clerical regime resorts to escalating repression and intensifying its terrorist and nuclear activities to escape the crisis of its overthrow.

“Therefore, it is evident that in these circumstances, the regime will again see its only option as intensifying repression and will attempt to settle scores with political prisoners under the pretext of the war with Israel.”

REGIME CHANGE PLEAS

It comes amid a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran brokered by the US.

Calls are now ringing louder for the Ayatollah’s regime to be taken down – and for a new democractic republic to take shape.

Trump hinted at regime change in a post of Truth Social as he demanded “Make Iran Great Again” – but the White House said it was not one of the authority’s official goals.

Maryam Rajavi, president-elect of the NCRI, insisted the “will of the Iranian people” is the fundamental change.

She said: “The proposal for a ceasefire and ending the war is a step forward for the third option: neither war nor appeasement.

“Let the people of Iran themselves, in the battle of destiny, bring down Khamenei and the dictatorship of velayat-e faqih.

“The people of Iran, in their century-long struggle, at tremendous and bloody cost, have repeatedly rejected the dictatorships of both Shah and Sheikh through successive uprisings.

“I repeat that we seek a democratic, non-nuclear republic, with the separation of religion and state, gender equality, and also autonomy for Iran’s nationalities. 

“This will bring peace, democracy, human rights, stability, reconstruction, friendship, cooperation, and economic development to the region and the world.”
