EN/IT/GR : Audio Message by Anarchist prisoner D. Chatzivasiliadis for the Uprising in France

Solidarity message from Greek prisons.

Tuesday 4 July 2023

My sisters and my brothers. Those of you who are fighting against the military machine of the European imperialist class today. Those of you who have not forgotten the slaughter of the Algerians in Paris 60 years ago. Those of you who are struggling so as not to live like slaves until death. Those of you who went with bare hands in front of the lines of the killers, for water, for the land, for the community and the freedom. Those of you who revive the spirit of Louis Blanqui. The youth of the Commune. You thunder deep into our hearts to us, the captive guerrillas all over the earth. The confrontation will continue to become more and more violent day – day. Capitalist culture has no future. We give all our existence to build proletarian – social autonomy and armed power.

Long live revolutionary anarchism.

Long live the international.

Ahead is the rebellion.

Messaggio di solidarietà dalle carceri greche

Martedì 4 luglio 2023

Sorelle e fratelli miei. Voi che oggi combattete contro la macchina militare dell’ordine imperialista europeo […]. Voi che non avete dimenticato il massacro degli algerini a Parigi 60 anni fa. Voi che state lottando per non vivere come schiavi fino alla morte. Voi che avete marciato a mani nude davanti alle file degli assassini a Sainte-Soline e altrove, per l’acqua, per la terra, per la comunità e per la libertà.

Motte-Servolex (Savoie): Another downed electricity pylon!

On the night of June 25 to 26, we sawed off the legs of a 225kV electricity pylon in the vicinity of La Motte-Servolex, on the outskirts of Chambery.

We followed the protocol described in Claim for the sabotage of an electric pylon, which we reproduce below:

1) Saw the transversal bars.
Note: These are the bars that connect the legs together.
2) Saw with oblique cuts on the two legs in the direction of the fall.

We take responsibility for the attack with an incendiary device with gaseous explosives at the EFKA building in Zografou by Anarchist Attack Group. (Athens,Greece)

We take responsibility for the attack with an incendiary device with gaseous explosives at the EFKA (Health center of Zografou ) building in Zografou area which resulted in damage to a State vehicle of EFKA as well as to the building.

We would like to begin by emphasizing that we do not intend this text to speak more than our action. An attack on the State, on an institution we think speaks for itself. Let these few words be a necessary companion and political defence of the flame of our attack.

We have chosen this target as it is a State institution created by the former Minister of Labour Hatzidakis and now under the authority of this ministry, and responsible for pensions, insurances and labour insurance. In other words, everything that constitutes modern capitalist Christianity. To put it more simply. I have worked for 40 years hoping for a pension to ”live my life” as it comes, and if, and with as much money as the government of the day decides. We even know that this particular body has deliberately delayed the payment of thousands of pensions. But we are not here to beg the State to give the pensions to the ‘poor people’ who have forcefully made sure that they have re-elected their oppressors. We are here to remind the State that any attack on the lower economic strata will involve an attack on itself.

We are conspiring: update on the current investigation

From kontrapolis.info, via Counter-Surveillance Resource Center

Languages: German •  French
Download: PDF (read, A4 booklet, letter booklet) • TEXT

Introduction

With the following text, we want to give an overview of the current investigation against two comrades who were arrested on February 16th 2023 in Adlershof, Berlin. We believe that individual experiences can be of a collective use when we find the right ways to share them. Instances of repression, should especially not be the fate carried by an individual, but an opportunity for us to come together in an offensive moment. This text should be one step further in that direction.

What happened?

In the night from 15th to 16th of February, the helicopter of the federal police (“Pirol”[1]) is on one of its routine surveillance flights. At 0:26am the team, with the help of thermal imaging cameras, identifies two people on the tracks south of S-Bahnhof Adlershof[2]. They alert the control center at Ostbahnhof[3], which then sends out two patrol cars and one civil car (all of them federal police, as the railway is under federal jurisdiction) to Adlershof.

Everywhere: 5th and 6th nights of riotous revolt, it’s still burning and looting (France)

via: Sansnom translated by Act for freedom now!

[Following the police murder of Nahel in Nanterre (Hauts-de-Seine) on Tuesday morning, a first, a second night, a third night, then a fourth night of riots took place across the country, destructive riots of which we published broad illustrated reviews here. And finally, two others (5th and 6th) took place this weekend during the night of 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 July, under heavy police pressure (plus that exerted by para-municipal associative structures or citizens).

What marked these fifth and sixth nights of riots, which the State and its mouthpieces presented as much calmer despite the 157 buildings burned or damaged in a short weekend-end, was in particular that – for lack of being able to hold the street sufficiently or carry out abundant looting as on the previous days/nights – we have also seen in the last two days more targeted and fewer attacks. These have included places dedicated to Justice (Court or House of Law – in Créteil, Aix-en-Provence, Blois, Forbach, Villeneuve-sur-Lot), a tennis club of rich people or private property belonging to the mayors. But rest assured, the institutions of local domination (community centre, media library, town hall, school, police) have not been spared either… ]

Some Numbers

For the night of Saturday 1 to Sunday 2 July, the Ministry of the Interior recorded 871 public road fires, 958 vehicles and 123 buildings set aflame. A total of 26 police stations (ten police stations, ten gendarmerie barracks and six municipal police stations) were attacked. The Ministry of the Interior reports that 45 members of the security forces were wounded and some 773 people arrested on the fifth night of the revolt.
For the night of Sunday 2 to Monday 3 July, the Ministry of the Interior recorded 352 public road fires, 297 cars burned and 34 buildings burned. Some 157 people were arrested during this sixth night of revolt.

Ile-de-France

In total, between the night of June 27 to 28 and July 2 to 3, there were officially 5,662 vehicles burned, 1,313 buildings burned or damaged, including 254 local police and gendarmerie stations. 722 of security forces were injured.Lognes (Seine-et-Marne), night of July 1 to 2: the community centre with the incendiary car which was used to ram it.

In Lognes (Seine-et-Marne), on the night of 1 to 2 July, the Simone Signoret social centre was targeted by a car used to ram into it, which was then ignited.

In Groslay (Val d’Oise), a municipal police vehicle is set on fire outside the police station on the night of 1 to 2 July.Nanterre (Hauts-de-Seine), night of 1 to 2 July: the Red Cross van did not escape the rioters

In Nanterre (Hauts-de-Seine), a Red Cross van was set on fire during the night of 1 to 2 July. In a press release, the Red Cross said that this truck contained all of their general public-training materials and cited “very significant” financial harm.

[Summary of regional and national press, July 1, 2023]

Everywhere: 4th night of riotous revolt, it’s still burning and looting

What marked this fourth night of riots, in addition to clashes with the police around the country, was new cities joining the fight (small or medium -sized), the beginnings of the use or theft of firearms (Lyon, Marseille), and looting for which hundreds of youths have been able to show up (including in the day or early evening: according to the Minister of Finance, the summary so far is that 200 large retail stores were attacked and looted, along with 250 tobacconists (newsagents), 250 banks, and a dozen shopping centres — 700 in all).

Regarding the targets – which we concentrate more willingly, while the journo-cops filter them more – it remains everything that embodies local state and institutional domination (from town halls to schools, socio-cultural centres, social landlords, or the post office) which were most burnt this night.

Some figures

The Ministry of the Interior identified last night from June 30 to 1sthttps://sansnom.noblogs.org/files/2023/07/00321.jpg July, 2,560 fires on the public highway (against 3,880 in the night From Thursday to Friday), 1,350 vehicles torched (against 1,919 at night previous) and 266 burnt or damaged buildings, including 26 town halls, 24 schools and 5 justice establishments (against 492 the previous night). In addition, 58 cop dens were attacked (31 commissariat-type stations, 16 municipal police stations. and 11 gendarmerie barracks). 1,311 people were arrested that night across France. A total of 79 police officers and gendarmes were injured.

Everywhere : 3rd night of riotous revolt, looting and fires à gogo [Re-MàJ] (France)


via:sansnom.Translated by Act for freedom now!

[Following the police murder of Nahel in Nanterre (Hauts-de-Seine) on Tuesday morning, a first (in english) then a second night of riots (in english) took place all over the country,  destructive riots which we have published large illustrated reviews of here. And finally, a third night from Thursday 29 to Friday 30 June— despite the announced deployment of 40,000 police officers, four times more than the day before, despite the arrival of the RAID (in Toulouse, Lyon, Marseille, Montpellier, Bordeaux, Strasbourg), of the BRI (Nanterre) and the GIGN (in Evry, Savigny le Temple, Nantes, Toulouse, Tours and Avignon) in anti-riot mode, in spite of the night curfews, in spite of the cessation of urban surface transport in the Ile-de-France and elsewhere from 9pm, in spite of the circling of gendarmerie helicopters and police drones, and despite the prefectorial prohibitions of carrying and transporting pyrotechnics as fuel.

What marked this third night of riots, in addition to clashes with the police across the country, now affecting more than a hundred cities (including small ones), has not only been a fine constancy in burning public transport, but also in multiplying looting of all kinds (sometimes during actual raids in the city centre, but also in Darty, Decathlon or shopping centres), with several destructions of businesses and temples of merchandise. And with a single common language, which goes without any claim or dialogue with power or its mediators: Fire!
Note that today, June 30, the first looting of the day has already begun, such as at the Apple Store and Lacoste in the centre of Strasbourg, the Spar supermarket in Reims or the major shopping centres of Rosny 2 and Créteil Soleil in the Paris region… ]

A few figures

https://sansnom.noblogs.org/files/2023/06/123.jpg
The Ministry of the Interior recorded that during the night from 29 to 30 June 79 cop lairs are attacked (39 national police premises, 24 of the municipal police and 16 of the gendarmerie), and 119 public buildings are targeted, including 34 town halls and 28 schools. In addition, 917 people were arrested last night all over France, including 408 in Paris, in Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-Saint-Denis and Val-de-Marne (and 170 in police custody). A total of 249 policemen and gendarmes were injured last night.


Today, June 30, Elisabeth Borne declared from the police station of Evry-Courcouronnes (Essonne) that «all hypotheses», including the establishment of the state of emergency, are envisaged by the executive for «the return of republican order», For its part, the Elysée palace stressed that Emmanuel Macron was ready to adopt the “no taboo” policing system… For a start, the gendarmerie’s 18 new Centaur tanks will be mobilized tonight, and all surface transit across the country has been shut down by the ministry of the interior.

———————————————————————————

[This second night of riot in a row after that of yesterday following the police assassination of Nahel (Hauts-de-Seine) on 27th June, expanded to many more cities, multiplying also the number and type of targets.. Beyond clashes with police and burnt cars, below is a non-exhaustive review of burned buildings, looted or attacked across the country, from cop stations to town halls, from social centres to media libraries, from supermarkets to metro stations and trams, not forgetting the entrance of the prison of Fresnes or the court of Asnières-sur-Seine…]

Some numbers
2377 fires were recorded on the public road during the night of 28 to 29 June, according to a police source cited by Le Parisien. Of these, 609 vehicles and 114 buildings were affected. 27 attacks on national police premises were also reported (damong which 7 by fire), 4 gendarmerie barracks, 14 municipal police stations (including 10 burnt). At least eight town halls burned or damaged, 6 schools and six public buildings. 133 members of the police forces were injured, including 123 policemen and 10 gendarmes.

For pleasure…

* Airparif writes this Thursday that « significant levels of particulate matter (PM10 + PM2.5) were observed in the air tonight and this morning » in Île-de-France, and that this « increase in the region is mainly related to emissions related to riots». This kind of pollution can be due to the many fires that took place at night.

Public transport in Ile-de-France

Two trams were burned in the Hauts-de-Seine. One of line T6 to Clamart, at the Georges Pompidou stop. « The catenaries burned, the tram is embedded in the tracks. We’re going to disengage the train this afternoon (Thursday) but the work will take weeks», explained a manager. The other train that was set on fire was the T10 tram, which had just been inaugurated last Saturday at Châtenay-Malabry.

Ile-de-France, France: Riot rage spreads following police assassination of Nahel

Riot rage spreads following police assassination of Nahel

Scenes of riots, mortars and fires marked the night from Tuesday to Wednesday in the department of Hauts-de-Seine, but also more sporadically in other departments of Île-de-France after the death of Nahel, 17 years old. The teenager was killed on Tuesday morning 27th June in Nanterre (Hauts-de-Seine) by a police shooting [at point-blank range in the chest], the latter justifying his act by a refusal to comply. The policeman responsible for the fatal shooting, aged 38 years, is being questioned by the General Inspectorate of the National Police (IGPN) as part of the investigation for intentional homicide opened by the Nanterre prosecutor’s office.
In addition to the 31 arrests during this first night of riots, the Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin speaks of « 24 police wounded » and of « about forty vehicles burnt ». Today Wednesday 28th June, 2,000 police and gendarmes will be deployed in Paris and its inner suburbs.

A Nanterre même, Urban violence has been concentrated in the neighbourhoods of Vieux pont where Nahel was from, but also Zilina, Berthelot, Pablo Picasso and Damades. The police were targeted by projectiles, fireworks mortars and sometimes Molotov cocktails. Approximately vehicles and garbage cans – often erected as barricades – were destroyed in the municipality. Fires were also lit along the rails of the RER A, between Nanterre and Rueil-Malmaison. Several administrative buildings (Public finances, community centre, two school groups) were also damaged by fires. « Various public and private buildings, among which some schools, have suffered significant and unacceptable degradation, sometimes irreparable », the mayor Patrick Jarry laments.
On the side of the authorities, 20 police were slightly injured, among which 18 CRS and two BAC officers of Gennevilliers. Ten police vehicles and a fire engine of the Paris fire brigade (BSPP) were also damaged.

FR/EN/DE/SP/GR : A Message from S on June 17/ 23 was seriously injured, at the demonstration against the Sainte-Soline mega-basin on March 25, 2023 (France)

Communiqué du S

Salut tout le monde,

Je m’appelle Serge et j’ai été gravement blessé, comme beaucoup d’autres, à la manifestation contre la mégabassine de Sainte Soline du 25 mars 2023. J’ai été atteint à la tête par une grenade, probablement tirée en tendu par un gendarme équipé d’un lanceur de grenade cougar. J’ai subi un grave traumatisme crânien qui m’a mis en situation d’urgence absolue, situation aggravée par le blocage de ma prise en charge par les secours durant la manifestation. Après un mois de coma artificiel et six semaines en réanimation, j’ai été transféré dans un service de neurochirurgie, puis en centre de rééducation. A l’heure actuelle, je ressens d’énormes progrès dans ma faculté à bouger, manger et tout simplement échanger et réfléchir. Le chemin va être extrêmement long mais je suis déterminé à tout donner, à me battre pour récupérer ce qui me constituait, tant physiquement que mentalement. Je le fais évidemment pour moi, mais aussi parce que je pense que refuser d’abdiquer, refuser d’être écrasé par la machine répressive est une nécessité politique, à l’heure où les Etats font le pari de la terreur et de notre passivité.

Je tiens d’abord à remercier celles et ceux qui, dans ce champ de mines, m’ont porté, tenu la main, protégé, promulgué les premiers soins (ralentissement de l’hémorragie, massage cardiaque, intubation etc.) et m’ont tout simplement permis de rester en vie. Je tiens également à remercier les soignants qui, à chaque stade, ont pris soin de moi et m’aident encore aujourd’hui à reconquérir mon corps et ma tête. Je ne peux que vous faire part du bien fou que j’ai ressenti à ma sortie du coma devant la solidarité massive qui s’est exprimée : assemblées, textes, tags, dons, musiques, actions et messages divers de camarades de par le monde. L’écho de vos voix et des rugissements de la rue nous a aidé, mes proches et moi, à ne rien lâcher. Pour tout cela, je vous dis à toutes et tous un grand merci. Vous avez été énormes.

Announcing Unravel.noblogs.org

Unravel is a counter-information project with an insurrectional perspective that aims to connect acts of negation and attack in the so-called USA. Those in power want our acts to remain disparate and disconnected, the spark that drives each of us shielded from the other’s view. By weaving together the threads of action, this project hopes to draw throughlines in the struggles that anarchists engage in, in order to broaden and amplify shared projectualities.

Domination and authority cross us in a tangled and knotted web of ever more interconnected systems; unraveling this network at one point has the potential to create a cascade that throws everything into disarray, opening spaces for freedom.
