Ancona, Italy – A text about Mattia Palloni and the other prisoners who denounced what happened in Modena prison during last year’s revolts

15th April 2021
We receive and spread this text concerning the serious situation of pressure that they are putting on Mattia (one of the 5 prisoners who submitted a report on the state massacre in Italian jails, March 2020) in the prison of Ancona. Mattia is not the only prisoner [of the 5] they are trying to wear out in various ways. Since mid-February they have been applying mail censorship on Cavazza [another of the 5 prisoners] (in the prison of Piacenza). Moreover all of them have had to go through more questioning by the Modena prosecutors. It is clear that they want to put pressure on them to make them give up, and the intention of guards, conniving doctors and the prison administration to give a clear warning to anyone who still wants to raise their heads in the face of the violence inflicted on them is evident.
WHAT BAD HEALTH CARE, THIS IS REVENGE!
Mattia is one of the five prisoners who signed a report on the events in Modena of March 2020, the beatings after the revolt and Salvatore Piscitelli’s death in a cell, which occurred in the prison of Ascoli Piceno.

MalAradio Berlin: high frequency hate! [en, it, de]

MalAradio Berlin: high frequency hate!

In one of Berlin’s squares where gentrification and repression are no longer a river in flood but rampant water, in the tide that destroys the shores of a historic neighborhood, lived and conquered with sweat, gasoline and barricades, the new puppets, the admirals of respectability and normalization, make their way sailing on shiny ships. At their passage the waters are stained with blood and protected by their domesticated thugs, they fill the overflowing flesh under their vests and swell the pockets of the real estate sharks. They build new islands made of large windows, lofts, luxury buildings, organic and minimal fake-craft stores, architectural monsters that house the offices of the newest start-up.

MalAradio is a vessel that sails in the opposite direction, shooting vitriolic sound waves, occupying an immaterial space: the sound, gunpowder of its cannons. From one of the few spaces that still resists in that square, malAradio spits its poison at full volume, rumbling in the streets, with the intent to choke on the salty breakfast to the yuppies born from normalization, who wallow, complicit, in this ocean of slime, shit and oppression.

Leipzig, Germany – Photos in solidarity with the prisoners of operation Bialystok

via:roundrobin.info
We send our flaming hearts to Italy, where our comrades are still being persecuted by the State. We gathered for a solidarity photo at Herderpark in Leipzig-Connewitz. The banner reads:
Freedom for the prisoners of operation Bialystock /Freiheit fuer den Gefangenen Op. Bialystok.
A hug full of anger and love to Flavia, Nico and Roby, released a few days ago, and to the others who are still waiting to get out of the vile jails.
For anarchy!

Solidarietà con i compagni imprigionati in Cile. Contributo alla solidarietà internazionale dall’occupazione Utopia A.D. di Komotini (Grecia, aprile 2021) [it, en, el]

Solidarietà con i compagni imprigionati in Cile

Striscione in solidarietà con i compagni in sciopero della fame in Cile affisso a Komotini davanti all’edificio governativo della regione della Macedonia Orientale e Tracia.

Recentemente si è concluso lo sciopero della fame (e per un periodo anche della sete) del prigioniero politico Dimitris Koufondinas, che a seguito dell’entrata in vigore di una legge vendicativa riguardante i prigionieri politici di lungo corso ha perso il diritto a scontare la condanna nelle carceri rurali. Il seguito è ben noto, con il governo che si rifiuta di applicare la sua stessa legge e Dimitris Koufondinas che intraprende uno sciopero della fame durato numerosi giorni, esigendo il proprio ritorno al carcere di Korydallos come previsto dalla legge stessa.

Un trattamento simile nei confronti dei prigionieri politici, questa volta da parte dello Stato cileno, è il motivo dell’inizio delle mobilitazioni nelle carceri di Santiago. Così, da lunedì 22 marzo 2021, a Santiago del Cile, anarchici e altri prigionieri, così come i prigionieri per la lotta di liberazione di Mapuche, hanno iniziato una mobilitazione avente le caratteristiche di uno sciopero della fame che proseguirà per tempo indefinito.

Italy: Davide Delogu in sciopero della fame (22.04.2021) [it, en]

Davide Delogu in sciopero della fame (22.04.2021)
Apprendiamo che il compagno anarchico sardo, prigioniero deportato, Davide Delogu ha iniziato uno sciopero della fame ieri, giovedì 22 aprile.
Questo sciopero della fame nasce in seguito alla revoca delle chiamate con una compagna sarda. A quanto pare il direttore del carcere ha dato il diniego facendo riferimento a un documento che era stato prodotto dal magistrato di sorveglianza di Agrigento risalente a tre anni fa.
Seguiranno aggiornamenti.

Davide Delogu went on hunger strike (April 22, 2021)
We have learned that comrade Davide Delogu, sardinian imprisoned and deported anarchist, went on hunger strike yesterday, Thursday, April 22, 2021.
This hunger strike was prompted by the withdrawal of phone calls with a sardinian comrade. Apparently the director of the prison gave the refusal by referring to a document produced by the surveillance magistrate of Agrigento three years ago.

Thursday, April 22, 2021 Santiago de Chile : 2nd Public Communique on the 32nd day of the Hunger Strike.

2nd Public Communiqué on the 32nd day of the Hunger Strike.
To the peoples, individuals, communities and territories in struggle and resistance.
To those who rebel against this present of oppression and misery.
To our herds, families, friends, complicities, comrades and loves around the world.
To all!
The anarchist prisoners and subversives of the social war Mónica Caballero Sepúlveda in the female prison of San Miguel, Marcelo Villarroel Sepúlveda, Juan Flores Riquelme and Joaquín García Chanks in the high security prison, Francisco Solar Domínguez in the Maximum Security Section and Pablo Bahamondes Ortiz in Module 2 of the prison company of Santiago 1 and Juan Aliste Vega in the Cas adhering but not on strike for medical reasons; we declare our total persistence in the decision to continue in this just mobilization in which we have already transit 31 days since 9 kidnapped comrades, in different periods in Chilean prisons, decided to begin this mobilization with characteristics of a liquid and indefinite hunger strike, thus activating a heartfelt demand in the prison world and, in the same way, uniting different generations of comrades as inescapable evidence of the continuity of the conflict with the State, the prison and capital in an undeniable context of Social War.
After 17 and 18 days of this journey with the body as a weapon of struggle, the comrades arrested in the context of permanent revolt and today prisoners in the prison company Santiago 1 module 3 Tomás, José and Gonzalo stopped the movement for „health reasons and lack of experience“ however those of us who continue to mobilize realize the clear will expressed by the comrades to take this necessary step of collective struggle and we greet them in the daily learning of living the millimetric resistance to the daily prison confinement.

Solidarity is judged on my person with the heaviest accusations, because I helped an injured comrade. My prosecution and trial are based solely on political criteria, on the attitude of dignity and solidarity that I have consistently followed throughout my life. I have nothing to dispose of but my own life, I have nothing to defend despite the constant struggle against the murderous rage of the State and capital! If my practical solidarity is the crime for which I am convicted and imprisoned, I declare myself unrepentant!
P.S.: Closing here, I would like to greet from the bottom of my heart the comrades who stayed by my side, in every way, those who stood by me and continue to fight. Knowing that the conditions are adverse and things are difficult outside, they did not desist! And to renew the appointment on the streets, where I grew up and have never forgotten.
NOT ONE STEP BACK
Using the power of the opponent we reverse the terms, the shortest path is the straight one!
No battle was won without ever being given

Action against prison builders Kier (Bristol,UK)

received by anonymous email:
This week we targeted the Bristol based offices of Kier, a company who,hand in hand with the State, profit from the misery and suffering of others.
It was easy and fun as we splashed paint and sprayed messages across the walls and smashed the windows of the building to highlight where some of their profits come from.
Prison:
Kier has been working with the ministry of “justice” for the last 14 years, having worked on the Midlands mega-prison, HMP Oakwood and the new mega-prison in Wellingborough. The conditions within these institutions can be described as nothing less than torture. Kier are literally materialising physical and psychological trauma before it’s even been appointed its receivers.
