The Evin Accusation, The Nuclear Brink

Iranian media primarily focused on the escalating nuclear rhetoric. Foreign Minister Araqchi consistently reaffirmed Iran's enrichment commitments, reiterating that no military solution existed for nuclear disputes, a stance continued from prior days. Concurrently, US President Trump and former Israeli defense officials renewed threats of further attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, prompting Iran to respond with threats of its own. A significant new development was the alleged Israeli aerial attack on Evin prison, which gained prominence with calls for its prosecution as a "war crime" by Amnesty International and later by Iranian judiciary head. Domestically, reports highlighted the severe and ongoing water and electricity crisis, leading to widespread provincial closures, with officials emphasizing its critical nature and calling for solutions. Additionally, new US sanctions targeting an oil smuggling network linked to the Houthis and Iran emerged, alongside US congressional support for prohibiting Iran's access to drone technology.
