Around Castres (Tarn): Demonstration, fires, occupation (and eviction) against the freeway project

via: attaque. Translated by Act for freedom now!

Excerpts from Reporterre / Saturday, October 21, 2023

[…] On October 21, on the outskirts of Saïx, in the Tarn countryside, over 10,500 people – 5,000 according to the prefect’s office – took part in the large-scale mobilization. The aim was to call for an immediate halt to work on the A69, a controversial motorway project linking Toulouse and Castres. […]

At around 1pm, not one, not two, but six separate processions formed at the base camp – one for each A69 “lie”. Small leaflets had been distributed beforehand detailing the missions of each of them. Once dispatched under the colorful banners, participants left the site along different routes.

The golden team then headed for the Pierre Fabre laboratory, the main defender of the disputed project. On the way, dozens of hooded people entered the site of the Bardou public works company – “involved in the project” according to the activists – tearing down the metal barriers protecting the site. A few rocks ended up flying into the windows of the building, whose immaculate walls were soon strewn with graffiti.

Athens, Greece: Text by Anarchist Pola Roupa: November 17, 2023. 50 years from the Polytechnic and my release from prison

Pola Roupa: November 17, 2023. 50 years from the Polytechnic and my release from prison

“After 7 years of consecutive imprisonment (from the arrest of 5th January, 2017), 8.5 years together with pre-trial detention (arrested on 10/4/2010) and 13 years and 6 months in total, sentence I served for my participation in Revolutionary Struggle, I have been released. The symbolism of the day was strong as this year’s November 17th marks the 50th anniversary of the Polytechnic uprising of 1973. On that day, everyone remembers the dead of the Polytechnic but also all those who have fallen in the struggle for freedom.

For me, this day was dominated by the memory of our comrade killed in the activity of Revolutionary Struggle, Lambros Fountas. But in my thoughts is also the comrade Nikos Maziotis who, despite the fact that he has served 11 years’ “closed” prison and 14 years in a mixed prison – a very long period for a 20-year sentence -, the judicial councils of Lamia are refusing to release him. It is now clear that a unique status of exception has been imposed on Nikos Maziotis, as no prisoner in a similar situation (with charges based on 187A) and with a similar sentence (i.e. not a life sentence) has remained in prison for such a long period of time. This exceptional regime based on political criteria and motives and which in practice nullifies the institution of parole – which according to the law is mandatory and not “gratuitous”, given that it is not left to the personal will of the respective judge – this exemption regime must come to an end. In addition to the flagrant violation of his rights, this special regime of exception is reminiscent of a junta-style treatment of a political prisoner.

The final hearings of the first instance trial against anarchist comrades Mónica Caballero and Francisco Solar, arrested on July 24th 2020 and accused (only Francisco) of sending parcel-bombs to the 54th police station and to Rodrigo Hinzpeter, ex minister of the interior and national defence as well as a director of the Quiñenco (25th July 2019), and both of the double explosive attack in the real estate building Tánica (27th February 2020), in the bourgeois district of  Vitacura (in the metropolitan area of Santiago) which took place in the context of the generalised revolt that broke out in Chile in October 2019. The actions against the 54th police station and Hinzpeter were claimed by Cómplices Sediciosos – Fracción por la Venganza, while that of the Tánica by the Afinidades Armadas en Revuelta.

In December 2021 Francisco claimed responsibility for both of the actions, giving the reasons, choice of objectives and revolutionary significance.

On 10th August 2022, after a series of extensions to the investigation period, the preliminary hearings have been concluded and requests for conviction been announced: 30 years’ prison for Mónica and 129 years for Francisco (according to the current judicial system in the Chilean State the public prosecutor’s office makes the requests before the start of the actual trial phase, the juicio oral). On 18th July of this year, after a postponement the trial finally began, which the comrades only attended in person during the first procedure of according to the current judicial system and the last hearing, attending the rest by video-conference.  During the July 18th hearing, the prosecutor, reformulating the initial requests, stated that the prosecutor’s office intends to inflict a sentence of 20 to 25 years on Mónica and one of over 150 on Francisco. During the hearing of 19th July Francisco reaffirmed assumption of responsibility for all the actions.

6 Cop City Concrete Trucks Set on Fire in Lawrenceville, Georgia (USA)

Make Contractors Afraid Again

On the night of November 13th we set fire to 6 Ernst Concrete trucks at 553 Seaboard Industrial Drive. Ernst is pouring the foundation for Cop City. This site, like so many others, is completely unguarded.

Front-pouring cement mixing trucks have large rear engine compartments which can be accessed without opening any doors. We placed incendiary devices and kindling near the engine block, the fuel tank behind it, and the double rear tires. We encourage further experimentation with incendiary placement.

Munich (Germany): railway crane on fire!

Munich : railway crane on fire!

At around 2.40 am on Saturday October 28, the fire department was called to a fire on the railway tracks at Unterföhring, in the north-eastern suburbs of Munich. While sabotage of infrastructure of all kinds occurs regularly in Germany and elsewhere, this time the Bavarian fire brigade were in for a pleasant surprise. It was no less than a huge, multi-ton railway crane that went up in flames, used for work on the tracks between Johanneskirchen and Munich International Airport.

Athens, Greece : Taking responsibility for the attack on a member of the fascist group propatria in Nea Ionia on Heraklion Avenue.

Athens: Taking responsibility for the attack on a member of the fascist group propatria in Nea Ionia on Heraklion Avenue.

On 28 October we chose to visit the coffee bar berry in Nea Ionia on Heraklion Avenue while Dionysis Karagiannis, a member of the fascist group propatria, was working there. Once again a member of propatria showed us his fighting skills by running to hide in the store’s warehouse. Propatria is a group that acts and moves invisibly, with little presence on the streets and usually for a short time, in the context of captions, “quotes” and in terms of spectacle, trying in this way to reach the youth, forcing the antifascist movement to take on the role of detective in order to reach its members.

They should be well aware that we will choose the target, the time and the place each time. It is the duty of the antifascist movement to dismantle every fascist cell, against any attempt at political reconstruction, with stubbornness, organisation and loyalty to each other.

Saint-Bonnet-les-Oules (Loire): arson attack on EHV substation (France)

Fire near high-voltage lines in Forez: it’s a criminal act
Le Progrès, November 2, 2023

On the night of Tuesday October 31 to Wednesday November 1, at around 4:50 a.m., some 30 firefighters responded to a 400 m2 industrial building on fire, at the Volvon RTE substation. According to information provided by the Sdis 42, the burning building contained electrical cabinets and batteries.

The operation was made delicate by the fact that the structure is located within the confines of an RTE relay station, where 225,000 and 63,000 volt high-voltage lines are installed to supply the entire Forez plain.

Still nothing?! About the sabotage of a transformer. ( France)

Still nothing?! About the sabotage of a transformer.

At the beginning of November, a few days after the attack, we learned from the press that one of the site’s two technical buildings, with a surface area of 400 m2, had been seriously damaged. The newspaper reassured its readership, hastening to add that the fire had not caused any network breakdowns. We’re puzzled by these allegations. We have long been aware of the media’s propensity for disinformation. Concealment and falsifications of the facts are the result of commercial, police and political dictates.

These days, silencing or minimizing the extent of sabotage on electrical infrastructures is in fashion. Unfortunately, we can’t factually contradict their claims, and we can’t set the record straight on the consequences of these acts, because they are unknown to us.

Operazione Scripta Scelera: Gino Vatteroni è stato trasferito agli arresti domiciliari con tutte le restrizioni (7 novembre 2023)

Il 30 ottobre il tribunale del riesame di Genova ha disposto il trasferimento agli arresti domiciliari (con le restrizioni nelle comunicazioni, nelle visite e il braccialetto elettronico) per il compagno anarchico Gino Vatteroni, tradotto in carcere il 4 ottobre scorso per un aggravamento delle misure cautelari nei confronti suoi e di Veronica. Per quest’ultima compagna il passaggio dagli arresti domiciliari restrittivi all’obbligo di dimora con rientro notturno e tre firme a settimana è avvenuto il giorno successivo all’udienza, mentre Gino è rimasto nel carcere “San Michele” di Alessandria fino al 7 novembre. Attualmente si trova agli arresti domiciliari restrittivi.

Operation Scripta Scelera: Gino Vatteroni transferred to house arrest with all restrictions (Italy, November 7, 2023)

On October 30th, the re-examination court of Genoa ordered the transfer under house arrest (with restrictions on communications, visits and the electronic bracelet) for anarchist comrade Gino Vatteroni, who was transferred in prison on October 4th for an aggravation of the precautionary measures against him and Veronica. For the latter comrade, the passage from restrictive house arrest to the obligation to stay in the municipality of residence with nightly return to her home (from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.) and three signatures a week at a local barracks took place the day after the hearing in Genoa, while Gino remained in the ‘San Michele’ prison in Alessandria until November 7th. Finally he was transferred, so he is now under restrictive house arrest.

 Greece: Testimony of the brother of a dead teenager
12/11/2023

“We were with my brother, his girlfriend and her sister. He didn’t have a driving licence yet and now that he was nearly 18 he was about to get one. We had taken the car for a drive. We were going from Aliarto to Leontari Thebes. My brother signaled to him to stop but because there were bends in the road there, he didn’t want to as he was afraid someone might come in the opposite direction and there would be a crash. My brother was scared because we had the girls in the car. A little further on, at about 800 metres, he put on the hazard lights and stopped the car.”

The brother of the dead 17-year-old and an eyewitness stated that “the policeman got out of the cop car fuming with nerves, approached, hit the car window on my brother’s side with his gun, with force. My brother opened the door, he didn’t have time to get out before the policeman starting kicking him in the ribs, in the legs, on his shins, grabbed him by the T shirt and shot him. The asphalt was covered in my brother’s blood. For nothing. There are witnesses. No pursuit, nothing. At that moment there was nothing I or the girls could do”.

Some up dates: 12/11/ 23 In Thessaloniki, a march of about 300 people. Strong tension.

Nearly 230 people have already sabotaged their electronic bracelets this year. (Belgium)

Nearly 230 people have already sabotaged their electronic bracelets this year.

Since the start of the year, 6,500 people have already had an electronic ankle bracelet fitted. That’s 1,400 more than at the same time last year. Among them, 228 convicts (3.5%) have already sabotaged the home detention device, mostly by cutting it off, writes Het Laatste Nieuws on Tuesday.

A new generation of bracelets will probably come into service in March 2024. They will then be fitted with an additional fiberglass thread to enable immediate detection of cutting.
