Why in God’s green earth would a prison be considered a military target?

The Israeli Def. Min said a few days ago:

We must strike at all symbols of the Regime and its mechanisms of repression, such as the basij as well as the regime’s power base, the Revolutionary Guards”

Just in....

Israeli Def. Min:

In accordance with the directives of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and myself, the IDF is now attacking with unprecedented force regime targets and government repression bodies in the heart of Tehran, including the Basij headquarters, Evin Prison for political prisoners and opponents of the regime, the “Destruction of Israel” clock in Palestine Square, the internal security headquarters of the Revolutionary Guards, the Ideology Headquarters, and other regime targets.

For every shot fired at the Israeli home front, the Iranian dictator will be punished and the attacks will continue with full force.

We will continue to work to defend the home front and defeat the enemy until all war goals are achieved.

Here is what they reported on Arutz Sheva: Opposition outlet Iran International suggested the attack may have been intended to create a breach allowing detainees to escape. The prison is subject to international sanctions by both the US and the European Union, due to its role in systematic human rights violations.

Looks like to me they are thinking regime change if they intend on releasing all the political prisoners at Evin.

"Why storm the Bastille during the French Revolution?"

Well, in that case it was to release Otis from the icy grip of Barney Fife and Sheriff Andy Taylor....

“ He says Khamenei & his family are making plans to flee”

They will flee taking along all the loot they’ve stolen for the last 50 years, but they will never know peace. Israel never forgets.
