Solidarity with the rebels in Indonesia by Anarchist collective Acte (Athens,Greece)

 Solidarity with the rebels in Indonesia

During the summer, mass protests took place in various parts of Indonesia against new austerity measures, tax increases and salary increases for members of parliament, whose salaries are 30 times higher than the minimum wage.

On August 28, during a protest rally, an armoured police vehicle runs over 21-year-old Affan Kurniawan, killing him. Affan worked as a delivery boy and was on his way to deliver food. After that, an unprecedented uprising broke out across the country. Police stations were destroyed, local parliaments and government buildings were burned, and politicians’ homes were looted. To buy time, the state declared that it would reduce the privileges of the political elite while at the same time intensifying repression and bringing the army on to the streets. So far, there have been 10 dead, dozens missing, hundreds injured, and thousands arrested. Despite government promises and repression, the flame of the uprising does not seem to be extinguished.

October is a month of remembrance and action for the anarchist revolutionary Kyriakos Xymitiris by Dimitra Zarafeta, Marianna Manoura (Grrece)

As long as there are those who are lost in battle, we will exist to continue the war

And when we die, we die like stars scattering light. Like that light that shone a year before the explosives explosion in the Ampelokipi apartment on 10/31, when the anarchist armed fighter Kyriakos Xymitiris was walking the last part of his journey, where everything is condensed into a moment, where his revolutionary consciousness aligns with the desire to put an end to this aging world that feeds on his flesh.

Filled with immense comradeship, determination and with no inclination to retreat, he committed himself to the struggle with a vision of freedom. With clear eyes, comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris made no concessions to emotion, he loved life, honouring it with every breath he took. Both in Berlin and in Athens, he participated in all the fields of struggle indiscriminately. In rallies and marches against gentrification, in anti-fascist and anti-patriarchal patrols, in mass poster pastings, in militant defences of occupations, in struggles against colonialism and prisons.

Three Rail fires in three months: some facts and thoughts (USA)

via: rosecitycounterinfo

Over the last three months, three rail bridges have been damaged or destroyed by fires in the Oregon and Washington area. Each of these fires was set intentionally. No arrests have been made, and to our knowledge, none of these actions have been accompanied by any claim or explanation.

But the world around us is the only explanation we need.

As we barrel forward towards a future of untold climate disasters and total ecological mutilation, the processes of extraction show no sign of stopping… They have only accelerated, with companies racing to exploit new corners of the earth for rare-earth minerals, essential components in chips and semi-conductors, the building blocks of our new digital prisons. Power has proposed false “green solutions” that only serve to further our dependence on technology and extraction and polish the face of industrial capitalism.

The fires

In May, a fire completely destroyed a 100 year old wooden rail bridge along a remote stretch of the Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad in Washington. By the time firefighters could reach the blaze, the rail bridge was reduced to a smoldering, maimed clump of metal. The fire struck just hours after a sale was completed of the railway, transferring ownership to the Western Forest Industries Museum. Rail Operations were limited at the time of the fire, but the new company had planned to fully resume rail traffic on the line, both tourist and freight. Even after months of investigation, no arrests have been made. Continue reading Three Rail fires in three months: some facts and thoughts (USA)

Sponti in Koeln – Solidarity with Rigaer 94 (Germany)

solivid-rigaer.mp4

Thursday 28.8. morning cops broke into Rigaer 94 in Berlin at the demand of the scumbag owner of the letterbox company Lafone. This latest attack comes during a period of re-militarization which includes the redirection of capital towards weapon production, as well as the reintroduction of forced military service as decided by the Bundestag on Wednesday.

Military aggression comes with intensified repression against the internal enemies of the state-capitalist system. So it is no surprise that our spaces where we come together to fight back are at the top of the list of targets of the state.

**FUCK THEM ALL.** (Indonesia )

**FUCK THEM ALL.**

Last night, our friend Pem got snatched by the pigs, and we still don’t
know what charges they’ll throw at him. This morning, they’re out there in the media, trying to make a spectacle of mass arrests, calling us “provocateurs” and “outside agitators.” And they’re naming names—**our names.**

The usual traitor of this post-indrustrial capitalism such as
“leftists,” the NGOs, and even the so-called anarchists have
**betrayed** us by becoming the echo chamber of State narratives.
They’re dancing in the state’s echo chamber, spreading their lies and
slander. They’re parroting the ruling class narrative, blaming the
**rioters**, blaming anyone who dares use insurrectionary tactics to
tear down this civilization. The same people who once claimed solidarity now **help the state** track us down, label us as criminals or outside agitator, and destroy everything we’ve fought for. They even parroting the same narrative of “rioters caused the death of several people”.

Call to Arms: Insurrectionary Solidarity with Indonesia

Communique from FAI Indonesia:

Since the 25th, the flames of rebellion have scorched the oppressive forces in Indonesia, igniting a fierce uprising against a regime that thrives on violence and subjugation. This is no fleeting moment; it is a throbbing heartbeat of resistance from those long denied their rights. The loss of ten lives in this struggle only deepens our resolve to confront the state and its henchmen.

As the government unleashes military brutality, kidnaps activists, and engages in sinister cyber warfare, we are reminded: “Insurrection is the most logical weapon of the masses.” It is time to act- our fury must unite as a force beyond borders!

ROME, ITALY: BUG FOUND IN CAR

BUG FOUND IN CAR

We receive and spread:

Bug found (2 microphones) with vodafone SIM card, 32GB and GPS SD card in a car in Rome. It had apparently started recording and transmitting from February 14th 2025, perhaps after being placed at the end of January.

The contraption was situated at the driver’s side, low down, along the left side of the seat. It was fed by cables under the steering wheel, one of the microphones was positioned under the driving seat, the other near the safety belt on the same side.
End of transmissions, shit!

Archipelago of Fire – Uprising in Indonesia , and from ABC Indonesia: International call for solidarity to the arrested, disappeared and killed in the ongoing uprising

News from Indonesia. 25th August and continuing….

via: darknights

Angry youth uprising triggered by rising taxes for public and repressive military. There’s no organisation, the insurrection is being spearheaded by young anarchist, nihilists and uncontrollables. Many young anarchists from high school students association are arrested. The high schoolers are the energy. Around 400 of them were arrested on 25th August according to reports. Most of the action coordinated live on social media. Usually some liberal union or opposition party controls the narratives but not this time. Even mainstream media acknowledge that social media is the source of the documentation. Politicians cannot control the narratives any longer. It’s been a tradition for decades that executive student bodies normally are stewards for these kind of demos, but each year these brokers are getting outed. By the students themselves. That’s why NGOs, unions, “civil anarchists” and students associations of left and right hate the anti-organisational faction.

Fuck them all. We provoke the youngsters to act for themselves.Individuals are no longer spooked by ideological duty, norms and all those extrenal values…

Last night, 28th August, police killed one dead. Nationwide riot against the tax rise. In several cities the riot was organic and self-organised. The police public image continues to crumble, as the peoplke supports the rioters. Cells coordinated other things and most nihilist-insurrectionary announcement are quite dominating the narrative. Anonymous instagram social media accounts with thousands of followers calling for anti-political insurgency. Everyday they make good calls and explanations.

Berlin,(Germany): Police raid in Rigaer94

It’s been almost four years, but today they knocked again: at 6.00 in the morning 27/08 we woke up to loud voices, chainsaws, ankle grinders and hammers on the doors. Out of 200 cops which were in the street, around 100 entered the house. Supposedly there were in total 700 cops related to the raid deployed in the city.

As usual the cops used the opportunity to cause as much chaos and destruction as possible: Multiple doors were destroyed completely or deconstructed, furniture, handrails and windows were demolished, parts of the fence to our neighbours yard were ripped off, cops peed on toilet seats and so on. Even though they did not have a warrant for it, they, among other things, stole documents and technical devices. Continue reading Berlin,(Germany): Police raid in Rigaer94

Security Culture and Safe Houses: Sustaining the Network, Nurturing Continuity

In the world of resistance without formal structures, especially within anarchist networks, security culture emerges as a foundational principle that permeates nearly every aspect of collective and individual life. […] The safe house, meanwhile, is the most tangible embodiment of that spirit. […] Nothing is ever truly “safe” in a world under perpetual surveillance, but the safe house becomes a space where survival — both physical and mental — remains possible to fight for.

Challenges of Police Investigations Into Anarchist Direct Actions

Translations: FrenchGermanGreekItalianMandarin (Simplified)Russian

 

Let’s say a few anarchists are planning an illegal, anonymous direct action. For example, they want to paint a wall, or smash a bank, or burn down a government building. The goals of the police are to prevent actions like this from taking place and/or identify and arrest the anarchists and gather enough evidence for them to be convicted. What can the police do to achieve these goals, depending on their motivation, their resources, the type of action, and the way the anarchists organize? What challenges will they face? And how can anarchists identify these challenges as weaknesses in order to exploit them and act without getting caught?

This text aims to contribute to answering these questions by addressing some points that we think have been insufficiently explored in anarchist literature in recent years.

Anarchist Convergence and Bookfair Berlin 2025

November 7-9, 2025

Mehringhof (Gneisenaustr. 2A, 10961 Berlin)

*DE unten. IT di seguito. РУ ниже. ΕΛ παρακάτω. ES abajo.
More translations to be published.*

If one follows world events with open eyes, the question arises: why are we anarchists and our ideas and methods so socially irrelevant at this point in history?

Raging wars and a variety of global crises increasingly highlight the inability of those in power to offer real solutions. If their best response is to sow fear and conscript us as drone and cannon fodder, then the current situation demands revolutionary responses from below. What do we have to propose?

From November 7th to the 9th, we want to come together at Mehringhof in Berlin-Kreuzberg, get to know each other and our different realities, and exchange ideas. We gather not only to react to the new failures of the state and capitalist system, but also to develop our own long-term responses and build resilient networks and structures based on mutual aid and communality, as well as an anti-authoritarian, non-reformist and antagonistic stance.

The meeting sees itself as an experimental space for self-organization, with co-creation by all participants. As the initiating group, we organize the space for the meeting as well as a certain framework (food, pre-selection of events, time allocation…), which can then be filled with life by all of us who come to the meeting. It will be possible to hold several events at the same time.

If this appeals to you, we welcome you and your proposals – in the form of talks, discussions, workshops, films and other artistic contributions on the following topics:

  • War, genocide and military mobilization
  • Decolonial movements (e.g. Palestine, Sudan, Congo)
  • Advance of the right and social fascization
  • Earth destruction
  • Criticism of technology (e.g. AI and co)
  • Health autonomy
  • Feminism (esp. patriarchal dynamics in the anarchist movement)

If there are other topics that are close to your heart, then of course it is also possible to bring them in.

Everyone is invited to contribute their practical experiences in (self-)organizing. Historical and theoretical contributions are also welcome if they focus on nourishing the practice and building stronger connections to current struggles.

On one hand, we seek to facilitate international exchange and knowledge transfer, so reports and continued discussions from previous anarchist events are strongly encouraged. Translation between German and English will be provided, and we invite speakers of other languages to volunteer as interpreters as well.

On the other hand, with this gathering we hope to strengthen the relationships between anarchist circles and individuals in Berlin, of which there are fortunately many, but which often exist side by side without much exchange between them.

Please contact us in case you:

  • have event proposals
  • could translate at the event
  • would like to draw/design a poster (it would be nice to have several)
  • could provide a place to sleep
  • would like to support otherwise

Here are the forms to facilitate the submission of your proposal:
Call for Participation.

We are looking forward to your contributions. Please, repost and translate the call. See you soon!

Threat Library: Arson Forensics

PDF available below

From Threat Library, updated August 23

Arson forensics (also known as fire investigation) is the application of science to the investigation of arson. Arson forensics aims to determine the origin and cause of a fire and, if it is suspected to be arson, to gather evidence that could help identify the potential arsonists.

An adversary can usually easily determine whether a fire was accidental or arson. It is difficult to carry out an arson and make it appear accidental to an adversary who is knowledgeable in arson forensics.

Fire scene investigation

Fire scene investigation is the inspection of the scene of a fire, looking for:

  • The ignition source that started the fire and the fuel that source ignited. For example, in an accidental residential fire the ignition source may be a malfunctioning electrical outlet that overheats and the fuel may be a sofa positioned against the outlet. In an arson the ignition source may be a match and the fuel may be gasoline brought by the arsonist.
  • Patterns left by the fire on walls, floors, ceilings, and objects. These patterns can indicate where the fire started and how it spread. For example, a fire that starts at the base of a wall may leave a distinctive V-shaped burn pattern on the wall.
  • Eyewitness accounts and video surveillance footage of the scene of the fire before, during, and after the fire.

When a fire occurring inside a room reaches a high enough temperature — typically between 500°C and 600°C — it reaches the flashover point. During flashover, the room is so hot that all ignitable surfaces ignite more or less simultaneously and the fire spreads rapidly throughout the room. Once a fire has reached flashover it is usually significantly harder for the adversary to interpret the patterns it left on walls and other surfaces.
