SABOTAGE OF SURVEILLANCE AND SECURITY SYSTEMS (Athens,Greece)

SABOTAGE OF SURVEILLANCE AND SECURITY SYSTEMS

Lately, we’ve been witnessing a dramatic increase in our repression and surveillance. Smart cameras record our movements, mobile phones and electronic devices are being filed, and all sorts of cops are on the prowl.

Lately, we have been observing an ever-increasing mobility of flying surveillance devices above our heads both in the centre and in the northern regions where we operate. We are referring to the police drones (unmanned aerial vehicles) that, with all sorts of excuses, have intruded into our lives and that the state is trying to impose as the new normal.

Introduction

[…]we enter a vicious circle with mournful calls to a miserable bartering with the State one wanted to fight.

When individuals find themselves alone at night, no longer supported by “collective strength”, the arms of Morpheus transform the imprisoned comrades one wanted to support, to whom one wanted to express one’s solidarity, into a real nightmare with no escape.

So! Should we no longer show solidarity to imprisoned comrades given that it serves no end? Continue reading About Munich 2019-2025 : Petrol, Printer Ink and Paranormal Activity

Hamburg (Germany): fire to the car of a militarist boss

Fire to the car of a militarist boss

Switch off the arms industry!

Attack on Vincorion in Hamburg!

(from de.indymedia, June 15, 2025)

“We power your mission” is the advertising slogan of the arms company Vincorion. Our answer: switch off the arms industry! Yesterday, using an incendiary device, we rendered the personal car of Vincorion managing director Kajetan von Mentzingen, parked at his home at 16 Newmans Park in Hamburg’s Nienstedten district, unfit for war.

Vincorion develops, produces and sells generators, electrical systems, electronic components, optical systems, target detection technology and weapon stabilization systems. These are integrated into Leopard 2 battle tanks, Puma armored vehicles, Boxer wheeled tanks and 2000 howitzers, as well as NH90 helicopters and Iris-t and Patriot missile and anti-missile systems. Vincorion wins contracts mainly from the German army, but also from other European countries and the US.

Under the Enemy’s Blade: A Search for Anarchist Practices Against Torture

From No Trace Project

PDF: read | A4 booklet | letter booklet

Preface

Torture — the deliberate infliction of severe pain or suffering for punishment, interrogation or intimidation — is one of the tools used by the State and its allies in their war against anarchists. What individual and collective strategies can anarchists implement to prepare for, resist, and fight back against torture? This collection of texts aims to help answer this question by sharing the experiences and insights of anarchists, communists, and other militants who have been confronted with torture in the past five decades.

Torture is one of the toughest challenges that our movements can face. How to prepare for the risk of torture? How to organize so that if a comrade is captured, tortured, and talks, the risks to other comrades and to our activities are minimized? Should we commit to not talk under torture? How to not talk when faced with the most brutal physical and psychological treatments? How to deal with comrades who have talked under torture? How to fight back against torturers? How to help survivors of torture manage their pain and traumas?

We have strived to select texts that can help comrades answer these questions here and now, without relying on the enforcement of international laws or the lobbying of humanitarian NGOs. Each text is preceded by a short introduction in which we present the author and the original context of publication. Some of the texts include explicit descriptions of acts of torture.

We would like to express our gratitude to the authors of the texts, as well as to the translators who made their inclusion in this collection possible.

(Chile) Brotherly words from prison, before the trial against Aldo and Lucas Hernández

Brotherly words from prison, before the trial against Aldo and Lucas Hernández

Words by Francisco Solar

To greet comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernandez in this difficult stage of the trial against them is, once again, to validate the insurrectional action. It is to support and understand the necessity of the forceful action for which Aldo is accused. An action that, by the way, shook the daily life inside this prison. An action that, like few others, made solidarity be felt in all its breadth.

The judicial spectacle is prepared, the anti-anarchist Prosecutor already has all his cards ready to return to condemn anarchists of action to harsh sentences, however, in the face of this adverse panorama, they will find themselves with dignified and whole comrades assumed in a life of combat as they have well demonstrated during these years of confinement. Aldo’s situation has been complicated by being classified and locked up, these last months, in a maximum security module where it is not clear when he will be able to get out.

All the strength for Aldo and Lucas with the certainty that no sentence is eternal and knowing that every action is worth it.

Aldo and Lucas to the streets!

Let the prisons explode!

La Gonzalina Prison – Rancagua

June 2025

Words by Joaquín García

Before the beginning of the trial against comrades Aldo and Lucas;

In the next few days a new theater of Power will begin: two comrades will begin the final stage of the judicial inquisition, the last media feast; after this, nothing is public….

I know, it is clear to me, that they will face this stage with all the solidity that characterizes them, firm in their convictions, as they have shown in and out of jail, in word and action. Continue reading (Chile) Brotherly words from prison, before the trial against Aldo and Lucas Hernández

Claim for Direct Action at the University of Santiago de Chile.

Black May 2025

“…I consider that a person’s dignity comes first, not to give in with respect to his ideas, to stand firm, that as much as they try to overwhelm us with adversity, with insane violence (I consider that there is healthy violence), with punishments, in short, with everything, if you conform and shut up and give in and doubt, you are liquidated… Ideas without actions are worthless, it’s theoretical crap, therefore idea and action must be and are one and the same thing.” Continue reading Claim for Direct Action at the University of Santiago de Chile.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ARSON ATTACK ON THE  DEPARTMENT OF THE TRANSPORT AND COMMUNICATIONS OF SOUTH ATHENS REGIONAL UNITY (Athens,Greece)

At the dawn of Thursday, June 5, we placed an incendiary device on the facade of the Directorate of Transport and Communications of of South Athens regional unit, part of the Ministry of Transport, in area  Alimos.

Our daily transport is operated by the state for smooth operation of the consumerist reality. Transportation networks for our existences, which are fully recognized with the identity of employee-consumer, to bring us to and from our work and to the respective businesses where we will carry out our financial transactions.

They perceive society as a whole, as a non-expendable structure,
consisting of expendable bodies and with this as a guideline, using
their privileged position within the democratic system, ministerial
figures ensure the greatest possible profit for themselves.

Hetzlumpen

PDFs: A3 | Tabloid

These pages address the excesses of repression in the Bavarian kingdom and attempt to view the repressive strikes in the context of the broader state militarization taking place. Furthermore, this publication also touches upon the history of censorship in the BRD, the spectre of “eco-anarchism” and sabotage, what actually sucks about wind turbines and how it might be possible to deal with increasing censorship measures against subversive publications in the future.

First and foremost, however, this publication is above all a declaration and expression of solidarity with the repressed anarchist projects, the imprisoned comrades M. and N., as well as all the other anarchists impacted by repression in the Bavarian kingdom.

Since 2022, there have been a series of repressive strikes against anarchists in Munich. The preliminary highlight was the arrest of the anarchists N. and M. at the end of February 2025 on charges of publishing the newspaper Zündlumpen with another person. The Munich Public Prosecutor General’s Office decided to prosecute and censor Zündlumpen and its alleged editors as a criminal organization. The crimes committed by the criminal association of the Zündlumpen editorial team are to have published and distributed incitement, counseling, and condoning of criminal acts.

If it is a crime to endorse violence against this murderous system, then we are all guilty as charged.

Dedicated to all wild spirits facing state violence. They can take paper and books away, but they will never extinguish the fire in our hearts.

Preface

From February 2019 to September 2021, “Anarchistisches Wochenblatt Zündlumpen” [“Zündlumpen Anarchist Periodical”] was published in Munich, at first on a weekly basis, and at increasingly greater intervals over time, but also with an ever increasing page count. It was never really clear whether Zündlumpen was more of a street paper or a discussion paper for anarchists – it included elements of both approaches, depending on the issue, sometimes veering more in one direction and sometimes the other. The texts were both introductory and in-depth, new and old, translations, analysis and commentary on current local events as well as happenings from further afield, communiqués, instructions, discussion texts and polemics as well as news from Munich and all over the world, from torched e-scooters in a Munich park to prison riots in Italy, along with photos of graffiti – the “Graffiti of the Week” – were wildly compiled.

The Munich paper underwent quite a few developments throughout its existence. Apart from several radical changes in design and format, it evolved from a weekly local anarchist paper encompassing various leftist tendencies which covered one A3 page, into a discussion paper of dozens to sometimes even hundreds of pages in length, starting more or less at the beginning of “covid”. It was notorious for its combative style, which formulated a radical critique of the covid measures and all of their supporters, whether they call themselves anarchist or not, and it reinforced and developed this critique over time with ever more detailed and in-depth analyses.

Germany: CALL TO DEFEND SÜNDI + HAMBI, AUTUMN 2025

The Megamachine spreads its devastating skewers in all directions:
towards the ocean floor, other planets, and the last remaining areas of wilderness on Earth. There are many places to take a stand against a suicidal culture which, if not thwarted, will not stop before all known lifeforms have been consumed by runaway technological expansion. Not least of all in the Rhineland, so-called Germany, a European heartland of industry and extractivism.

Situated between Aachen and Cologne, the Hambach coalmine is the largest in Europe – and it is getting bigger every day. Run by the
mega-corporation RWE, this toxic pit supplies nearby weapons factories with electricity, pumps out untold quantities of carbon dioxide, and swallows forests and villages whole. There could harldy be a more concise image of what the expansion of civilisation looks like.
