Oudenaarde : two army tanks set ablaze

Investigation opened after the arson of two armored vehicles of the army
Belga/RTBF, August 29, 2022

The fire broke out on Sunday morning in the Westerring area along the N60 in Oudenaarde, near the OIP company. Two wheeled armored vehicles – 6×6 Piranha IIIC DF30, i.e. equipped with a 30 mm gun – were set on fire. OIP, a subsidiary of the Israeli multinational Elbit Systems, manufactures electro-optical systems, such as goggles and other day and night vision instruments.

The fire was quickly brought under control, but the two armored vehicles were burned. No one was injured, only property damage was reported. The inscription “Shut Elbit Down” was written on the walls of the company.

Berlin , Germany : Claim for arson against vehicle of Greek Embassy

Berlin: Claim for arson against vehicle of Greek Embassy


Attentively we have followed how the Greek state crushes demonstrations in the streets of Athens. The government of Nea Dimokratia and its judiciary have proven that in the hunger strikes of D. Koufontinas and G. Michailidis, they are ready to let prisoners die rather than give in one step. We know the videos of the lynching of Zak Kostopoulos with the participation of police officers. As well as the execution of N. Sampanis in Perama by DIAS is an expression of a ruthless regime, as is the murder of Vassilis Maggos in Volos. The blood drips from the hands of the Greek authorities.

The new junta thinks it is smart to use the August vacation period to start building the metro station in Exarchia. Their goal is to destroy every social base and occupy every place of resistance with troops. The evictions of squats in Thessaloniki and the police invasion of the university there have not escaped our attention either.

Carcere La Gonzalina – Rancagua, Chile: Francisco Solar: a complicit greeting

Carcere La Gonzalina – Rancagua,Francisco Solar: a complicit greeting

A complicit greeting

Revolutionary anarchist solidarity is a mutual relationship that indispensably requires a clear and decisive war positioning of the prisoners and milieus in affinity outside. Starting from this basis, this week of solidarity with anarchist prisoners goes to fortify such a relationship upheld in the clash, which is nothing other than the existing complicity that attacks any expression of authority.

Ending assistentialism and victimism means ceasing to see prisoners as a subject who is unaccountable during their temporary condition of confinement. Therefore, it also means breaking with practices that tend towards hierarchization that evolve into authoritarianism. It is imperative to always bear this in mind in order to fortify the anarchist anti-prison struggle.

Greece: Council decision appeal courts on the case of the Anarchist Action Organisation

 Council decision appeal courts on the case of the Anarchist Action Organisation

After 7 months’ detention, the six-month council decided to release comrade Panagiotis Kalaitzis (who will present himself every 1st and 15th of the month), to replace the conditions of detention with house arrest and bracelet for comrade Georgia Voulgari and to extend the pre-trial detention for the captured member of the organization Thanos Xatziagkelou

The new developments, although they foreshadow the collapse of the anti-terrorism indictment, do not mean the end of the struggle on the part of the three comrades.

Terrorism does not bend the imperative right of the revolutionary struggle. Everything continues…

Lusatia (Germany): sabotage of a railway line of coal conveyors

Lusatia:sabotage of a railway line of coal conveyors

Translated from German via de.indymedia, August 2, 2022 (excerpt)

Last weekend, we placed “hooks” at several points on the overhead wires of the coal conveyor line in Lusatia (Lausitz), thus damaging the railway installations and disrupting the supply to the lignite-fired power plants Schwarze Pumpe and Jänschwalde. The “hooks” are a form of action that has proven itself in protests against nuclear power plants. With modest means, they can inflict significant damage, without endangering the life or health of anyone. We apologize for the possible fear that the operator may have had.

…For years there have also been various protests against the company LEAG (Lausitz Energie Verwaltungs GmbH) and the Lausitz coal mining – all in vain. The coal continues to be mined, and that’s not all: despite illegally using 240 million cubic meters of water and having been repeatedly condemned by various courts, LEAG is granted a multi-billion dollar loan with the help of the German state. Despite the fact that the mine is scheduled to close in May. The costs fall on others: the local population and the (protected) natural areas.

Messina and Caltanissetta, Sicily: In Messina against the prison, in Caltanissetta against the CPR

One afternoon at the beginning of August, a group in solidarity brought a quick greeting to the prisoners in the Gazzi prison in Messina.
What follows is a leaflet handed out in the neighbourhood next to the prison: volcarcere (in Italian)

After that some news about the CPR in Caltanissetta and the the report of a flying initiative against it:
One August morning, some persons in solidarity gathered in front of the gate of Pian del Lago in Caltanissetta, where the border regime’s war is at its height. Pian del Lago, un’ex military base trasformated into CPT in 1998, is now a key logistics centre where migrants are rendered exploitable and expellable and from where they are then deported.

Solidarity with Boris
Indymedia Lille, August 13, 2022

The anarchist comrade Boris has been in prison in nancy maxéville since september 2020 for sabotaging two 5G** relay antennas during the first lockdown. He had been in prison for almost a year when, on the morning of August 7, 2021, a fire broke out in his cell. Boris was hospitalized in Metz hospital, then in the intensive care unit of Besançon hospital. He is currently in the palliative care department of the same hospital.

My first concern will be to restore, preserve or promote health (in italics, excerpts from the Hippocratic Oath)

ASML: semiconductor dependency

Two attacks severely impacted the operations of semiconductor giants STMicroelectronics and Soitec last April. As a contribution to imagining possibilities for hitting where it hurts, here is a brief overview of ASML – an unavoidable dependency for all semiconductor manufacturers.

ASML may be the most important company you’ve never heard of. The $220B Dutch firm makes the machines that make semiconductors. Each one costs $150m and access to them are a huge geopolitical flashpoint. Its key product is an extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) machine, which “prints” tiny circuits onto Silicon wafers.

Mende (Lozère): As beautiful as a car of gendarmerie on fire at the Tour de France

Tour de France : a car of the gendarmerie on fire at
1 kilometer from the finish in Mende
Le Parisien, July 16, 2022 (excerpt)

While the bikers of the Tour de France were just starting this 14th stage from Saint-Etienne to Mende, a gendarmerie vehicle caught fire 1 km from the finish line in the Croix Neuve hill. The Dacia Duster in question was literally ravaged by flames in front of the incredulous eyes of some spectators.

The firemen were immediately busy with the damaged car. The asphalt was then cleaned and no longer had any debris. For the moment, it is impossible to determine the cause of this fire.

Le Bien Public, August 14, 2022 (excerpt)

The police intervened quickly, followed by the firemen. No suspect was arrested, but the surveillance videos will be studied to try to identify the perpetrator(s) of this arson.
