Claim for the sabotage of an electric pylon
[received by mail, December 21, 2022]

We sabotaged the 225,000 Volts pylon on the main line that supplies electricity to the chemical-industrial center of Salindres (the company Arkema and others).

Method:

1) Saw the transversal bars.
Note: These are the bars that connect the legs together.
2) Saw with oblique cuts on the two legs in the direction of the fall.
Note: The pylon must fall perpendicular to the cables.
3) Saw with straight cuts on the same two legs about 30 cm above the previous cuts.
Note: Saw all the way to the end to have a fully detachable piece.
4) Strike the sawn pieces still held in place by the gravity of the pylon with a battering ram.
Note: a small tree trunk can be used
5) While the pylon is falling, move away with small steps in the opposite direction.
Note: hacksaws and oil are sufficient to perform this action.

Let’s attack the companies that poison the earth!
Whether in large groups during occupation/demonstrations or in small groups during sabotage/arsons.

Strength to the individuals in struggle in France, Germany and elsewhere.

If the targets are too well protected, attacking the electricity allows you to cut upstream, while putting yourself in less danger.
Let’s go on the offensive!
Occupations, sabotage, arsons,…

We do not defend nature, we are nature defending itself.

Resistance fighters
