The summers of 2022 and 2023 were marked by two major struggles waged from inside the prison by our anarchist comrade Yannis Michailidis. With his primary demand being his release, which the state vindictively denied despite the years he had already served, G.M. escalated his protest to a hunger strike, reaching a critical health condition on both occasions. On the 30th day of his second hunger strike, he decided to further escalate his protest with a thirst strike, which ultimately resulted in the victory of his struggle and his subsequent release.

In this battle, the anarchist movement supported the strikers’ fight by convening central assemblies several times a week, writing texts and organizing actions on a nationwide scale. In Athens, the solidarity movement, drawing from various strands of struggle, did everything in its power to demonstrate its solidarity with the struggle of our comrade. It was within this framework that the “Assembly of Solidarity with the Anarchist Hunger Striker Yiannis Michailidis” sought to bring the issue to the forefront, raise public awareness, highlight the state’s vindictiveness toward political prisoners and to pressure the state to prevent the comrade’s murder.

At dawn on May 22, 17 years after the death of anarcho-nihilist comrade Mauricio Morales from a premature explosion of a bomb targeting a police academy that he was carrying in his bag, on his bicycle, we hung a giant banner in the castles [of Thessaloniki] honouring the memory of both the comrade himself and other comrades fallen in a similar way in the field of struggle.

Solidarity Assembly for the imprisoned, fugitives and persecuted fighters

Named in honour of internationalist anarchist Kyriakos Xymitiris, the boat ‘Kyriakos X’ is sailing with the Freedom Flotilla Coalition to break Israel’s genocidal blockade that the zionist state has imposed on Gaza for decades. In a testament to Kyriakos’s life, which he dedicated to fight for justice and for the oppressed, the boat also stands in solidarity with the legitimate resistance of Palestinian people, who never stopped fighting to end the colonialist occupation of their land.

On the 8th of May, Kyriakos X left the harbour with 33 other vessels of the Global Sumud Flotilla and met four other Freedom Flotilla Coalition boats at sea. The boat carries 10 people from five different countries, including Greece, Albania, the United Kingdom, Korea, France and Guadalupe. Continue reading Kyriakos X is sailing to Gaza.

On the morning of May 11, 2026, our anarchist comrades carried out an expropriation of a bank in Kato Tithorea. A few hours later, cops chased the comrades for several kilometers and then rounded them up. Home invasions followed, where the remaining comrades were arrested. The charges include both possession of weapons and involvement in robberies.

We consider it the responsibility of those who make up the anarchist space to politically and morally defend the choices of the comrades who have chosen these means of struggle, regardless of the hypothetical criticism we will receive from the “good” society. From the anarchist illegalists at the beginning of the 20th century to the metropolitan guerrilla in the here and now, the expropriation of resources from capital has been, is and will be a practice chosen by revolutionary movements. It is our duty to build a real wall of solidarity with our captive comrades as soon as possible. Until the total destruction of capital. Until Anarchy
