URGENT CALL FOR SOLIDARITY WITH COMRADE PAOLO TODDE ON HUNGER STRIKE (Sardinia,Italy)

IT: Appello urgente alla solidarietà con il compagno Paolo Todde in sciopero della fame
ES: Llamada a la solidaridad con Paolo Todde en huielga de hambre
DE: Dringender Aufruf zur Solidarität mit dem Genossen Paolo Todde im Hungerstreik
FR: Appel urgent à la solidariété avec le camarade Paolo Todde en grève de la faim

The Sardinian comrade Paolo Todde, already struck by repression in the first half of 2000 in the investigation against the old anarchist social centre FRARIA in Cagliari, remanded in custody on a robbery charge since 23 October 2024 and already imprisoned a few years ago on a charge of armed robbery, began a hunger strike on 25 April along with other prisoners to protest against the unlivable conditions in the prison in Uta (Sardinia).

The intervention of the prisoners’ guarantors with their empty useless promises caused the collective strike to end after less than a week. Paolo decided to begin it again on May 8 with the clear intention of carrying it out to the bitter end. We point out that Paolo is over sixty years old and started the hunger strike with a body weight of only 61 kg. Paolo shares a thousand dreams with us: a free Sardinia, hatred against jails and the society that produces them and has never been indifferent to the violence and prevarications of the colonial occupation forces.

SAINT-CHAMOND (LOIRE) France : « (A)NTI-TESLA CAMPAIGN: BORNE TO BURN »

Attacks against Tesla cars : at Saint-Chamond,
des bornes calcinées

Le Progrès, 30 March 2025

 In the car park of the Leclerc centre in Saint-Chamond, situated on the ZAC of the Varizelle, claims are made by floor-marking: « Anti-Tesla campaign, Borne to Burn ». The dozen Superchargers of the factory of Elon Musk were vandalised during the night of Wednesday 26 March to Thursday 27 March at around 4am.

Placed somewhere away from the large surface, under a sun roof, they were subjected to willful damage by fire. Two Superchargers were totally destroyed and the ten others turned out to be unusable having been struck by the flames. This nocturnal destruction – « manifestly targeted action » – is object of a police investigation to establish the technical and scientific findings and relies on video surveillance in the attempt to identify the author(s).

A first in Europe which Saint-Chamond would happily have done without

Right next to some Superchargers of an American company are some transformers aimed at supplying electricity and six other electric charging points of the Ionity mark that had not been vandalised. « This reprehensible act cannot be justified by the crystalisation of the behaviour of the Tesla CEO. These arsons are considered crimes and their authors will have to answer for these misdeeds », adds a police source.

Anarchist prisoner Marianna Manoura : Those Who Fuel Violence Are the First to Condemn Those Who Struggle. (Greece)

On 9/5, the extension of my pre-trial detention and that of my other co-defendants has been officially received. However, the decision was made months earlier, on 31/10, when the anti-terrorist police instructed the investigator to attribute the maximum charges to a highly inflated indictment.

Nevertheless, I will not focus on the decision of the Athens Misdemeanor Court Council – what council would take responsibility for releasing a defendant of the anti-terrorism police? – as well as the proposal and argumentation of the Athens Misdemeanor Prosecutor, Sotiris Bougioukos, who even rushed a whole month before the end of the semester to prove his obedience to the anti-terrorism law by assembling and proposing an abortive report, both for me and for the rest of the co-defendants. By rehashing the words of the anti-terrorist police, he simply repeats its position, revealing his indifference and the predetermined strategy followed by the dictatorship.

On the case of the bomb explosion in a bank in Thessaloniki where my former co-defendant S. Paraskevaidou lost her life – Fotis Tziotzis (Greece)

“Lies were told that even they themselves were ashamed, since they were not ashamed of the mouths that told them.”

All these days I have been watching the vile and unsubstantiated ridiculousness from the media slugs.

At first I thought that because of their low intelligence, I thought that these people could not put the facts in the right order. But now I now realize that some higher ups in the system are using them to shape-distort the truth and facts. It is a very dangerous and standard tactic used by the government media to mislead the public and impose their political agenda. Without of course in any way comparing cases, it is the same people who dare to slander the relatives of the victims of Tempi and cover up the case. It’s us they think we’re easy targets they’ll stick to; but are we?

On the 3rd of May 2025, at 5 am in the morning, Snizana Paraskevaidou lost her life because of the premature detonation of an explosive device she was placing outside a branch of the National Bank of Greece in Thessaloniki. The tragic death of this comrade lead to a widespread media terror-lust and so far, two arrests and the search of the cell of imprisoned anarchist comrade Fotis Tziotzis. We recognise and remember Snizana as a fighter and a heroine who died in battle, whose name and life is not forgotten.

Re-Opening of Meuterei – in memory of Kyriakos Xymitiris (Berlin,Germany)

By reopening Meuterei one more time we want to bring to the present those collective momentsthat brought closer the idea that other worlds are possible. Also we choose Meuterei becauseKyriakos was part of this collective. One of our spaces that got evicted 4 years ago. A placethat was not only a bar, it was a place of collective meeting and sharing; a place where social and political events where organized; a place to celebrate our friendship and comradeship.

With this action we want to commemorate that for a long time Kyriakos walked together with us in the struggles of Berlin. Together we defended our selforganized spaces and we fought against the process of gentrification that consum this city and changes it social geography benefiting some, while expelling the poor and marginalized people. Through Interkiezionale we confronted this process fighting together with other collectives against evictions. We stood against the establishment of, so called, danger zones that only pretend to secure while oppress those who don’t fit in the standards of a hipster- and touristified city We fought in the streets to reclaim our subversive and political ideas through the defence of Liebig34, Syndikat, Potse, Meuterei, Kopi Wagenplatz and Rigaer 94. We remember those times with nostalgia, but also with the powerful thoughts that if one time we were able to confront the State and his mercenaries with fierceness, we can and we will do it again.

(Chile) Claim for Explosive Attack on Abbot-Recalcine Laboratories, Black May 2025

Claim for Explosive Attack on Abbot-Recalcine Laboratories, Black May 2025

“The poor moan,
no one hears them.
Using arms,
now they hear them”

Women form gangs! This action isn’t an act of protest, much less of clemency; it is deliberately an act of vengeance. A few years ago the distribution of defective contraceptive pills by Abbott-Recalcine laboratories caused hundreds of unwanted pregnancies. Given this situation, the companies responsible proposed a compensation of $38,900 pesos, not even close to half of what it took us to make this explosive device. Although many disagree with the method of action, let’s at least agree that the sum offered is yet another mockery on the part of the democratic dictatorship.

The Andrómaco, Silesia and Abbott laboratories continue to make these practices company policy: they keep distributing defective contraceptives. Nothing new at all. Forseeably, both the business groups and the state run by Boric’s feminist pluri-police government and the rapist Monsalve remain silent. They are only interested in reproducing the cycle of poverty because, in essence, capitalism manages life and death for the systematic generation of wealth regardless of the damage it may cause.

(Chile) On the Demo for Comrade Mauricio Morales and the 81 Prisoners Killed in the Fire at San Miguel Prison


10/05/2025:

Against all odds… In memory of anarchist comrade Mauricio Morales and the 81 prisoners killed by the state in the fire at San Miguel prison.

Without leaders, nor managers, without fear of rain or police snooping, with anarchist pride high, we gathered different individuals in front of San Miguel prison to remember Punki Mauri. Remembering it right there, in front of the jailers, spreading its memory and continuing to sow offensive positions against Power is what we desire and what we do.

(Thessaloniki,Greece) TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR INCENDIARY ATTACK AT A COP’S HOUSE

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR INCENDIARY ATTACK AT A COP’S HOUSE

The landscape is constantly changing. Global and domestic developments constantly bring us before the lens of war, filling us with fear and uncertainty. Redistribution of wealth, “neighboring” wars, inflation and so many other words that constantly pound our minds in daily news headlines. Nothing can remind us of the golden decades of yesterday while the future looks bleak. Greece, through its strategic geopolitical position, is not absent from the sphere of global developments. As a member country of N.A.T.O it serves its part for the great powers, while at the same time, trying to combat “domestic enemies”, it tightens its repressive measures.

In recent years, we have observed an extreme form of escalation of the arrogant violence of the state and its institutions. One political
scandal follows another, while the state-parastate connection is more evident than ever. The cost of political responsibility is an illusory dream of the past, as everything is unfolding before our eyes. Trafficking circuits, pedophile circuits, illicit construction deals,
natural disasters that reveal corruption in infrastructure projects,
privatization of state wealth, photographic laws for the persecution of activists and so much more that weave the web of a deep state, which is intertwined in all its individual parts and creates a mafia state.

SAINT-JEAN-DE-MAURIENNE (SAVOIE) : SABOTAGE of LYON-TURIN  TGV construction site

[Received by mail, 9 April 2025]

Because it’s beautiful

The mountain has neither a mouth nor limbs to defend itself.

At the beginning of this spring 2025 at Saint Jean de Maurienne, severe damage was done to the conveyors transporting entrails sackaged from the mountain, as well as some building machinery, to put them out of their harmful action. This damage was accompanied by the messages « TELT fuck off »* and « Useless Project ».

We opposed ourselves to the new Lyon Turin TGV line and claim this damage whose aim is clear: to slow down the building sites, discourage the project managers and encourage opposition. Continue reading SAINT-JEAN-DE-MAURIENNE (SAVOIE) : SABOTAGE of LYON-TURIN  TGV construction site →

(Thessaloniki,Greece) Attack against ATM ,dedicate the action to comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris by anarchists

In a situation where state repression is intensifying at all levels,
cops are everywhere checking compliance with the doctrine of “law and order”; cameras are popping up left and right in the context of both social control and the defense of property; public space is shrinking more and more; and the condition of general sterilization of our lives is established, it is our duty to attack with all our means, causing cracks in the sovereignty of the state.

As anarchists, we have not stopped pursuing – step by step – the fundamental destruction of the existent, through a multifaceted struggle. A struggle that starts from the smallest and ends in the largest, with Anarchy as its goal. A struggle, on the path of which, comrades have gone through torture and prison, while others have perished with its flame within them.

NO SQUATTER IN PRISON! Campaign for the court expenses of Koukaki Squats Community (Athens,Greece)

It was March 2017 when we first opened the door of 45 Matrozou str. and began repairing the building so that it could house our struggles, desires, needs and bodies. And when these, a few months later, could no longer fit in one building we opened two more buildings that were rotting abandoned in the neighborhood of Koukaki, 21 Panaitoliou str. and the Blue House (3 Arvali str.). This is how Koukaki Squats Community was created in the center of Athens.

From then until 2020, Koukaki Squats Community had been a political community that combined anarchist struggle with communal life. The doors of its houses were open for those who wished to fight back against state violence and injustice, for people who needed shelter or wished to use its public structures, for those who sought a collective way of life. It was also an open political and social space accessible to the inhabitants of one of the most gentrified neighborhoods in Athens. Τhe community participated in struggles of the squatting and anti-fascist movement, in solidarity with political prisoners, against gender violence, patriarchy, racism, exploitation of nature, against the gentrification of the neighborhood and the privatization of the nearby Philopappos Hill. In addition to political assemblies and events that were hosted, a number of public structures were operating in the houses, such as a lending library,public baths & laundries and a free clothing bazaar.
