via: attaque

IAATA / Saturday 10 May 2025

Wednesday 7 May, at around 10h30, some plain clothes cops were seen hovering around a car parked in the street.

The name connected to this vehicle is that of one of the 8 people arrested mid-April and sentenced for « introduction into a living space » (Kasbarian law) and « refusal to sign ».

A white van (3 cops inside) was parked right next to the vehicle, another 2 were walking on the pavement.
When they saw that they had been spotted,

Already energy-hungry, data centers have redoubled their appetite with the recent development of generative AI, which requires colossal computing capacities to process the information accumulated in gigantic databases. In 2024, these infrastructures will only account for around 1.5% of the world’s electricity consumption (415 terawatt-hours, TWh), but this has already increased by 12% per year over the last five years. And there’s more to come.

“Electricity demand from data centers worldwide is expected to more than double by 2030 to around 945 TWh, slightly more than Japan’s total electricity consumption today,” according to a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) published on Thursday, April 10. Locally, “a 100-megawatt data center can consume as much electricity as 100,000 households” annually, but tomorrow, “the largest data centers under construction today will consume twenty times as much”, equivalent to the consumption of two million households.

Munich (Germany): the beautiful fires of April

Map of the series of “unsolved” incendiary attacks in the city of Munich from 2019 to 2025, published by the local press (Sueddeutsche Zeitung, April 22, 2025)

The wave of repression (searches, summonses and arrests) against the anarchist milieu in Munich at the end of February has not succeeded in putting an end to sabotage against the city’s critical infrastructure, as demonstrated, for example, by the two incendiary attacks carried out in the course of last April.

On Tuesday night, April 9, at around 3:20 a.m., the emergency control center of Deutsche Bahn alerted the police to a cable fire in a manhole in Obermenzing, a district to the northwest of Munich. The arson attack caused extensive damage to the cable systems running alongside the tracks, with 8 of them going up in smoke: three copper cables, three fiber-optic cables and two cables used for train signalling. Rail traffic was severely disrupted throughout southern Germany, and the Nuremberg (Bavaria)-Erfurt (Thuringia) high-speed line in particular had to be closed, as the damage caused all signals in this area to turn red. Deutsche Bahn also had to cancel around 96 trains and divert 16 others.

B(A)D NEWS 90 – Angry voices from around the world

Welcome to BAD News: Angry Voices From Around The World, a monthly English-language podcast by the international A-Radio Network #90 for April 2025! This month, we feature five segments:

  • First up, you’ll hear Črna Luknja from Radio Študent in Ljubljana, Slovenia, with an interview about the upcoming Balkan Anarchist Bookfair with organizers of the upcoming Balkan Anarchist Bookfair that will take place from May 15-18th, 2025 in Thessaloniki. More information, the call and the program for the bookfair can be found here: https://bab2025.espivblogs.net/
  • Next, Frequenz-A shares an interview recorded on April 13, 2025 with Eylem a transwoman and an activist from Istanbul about current protest, queer and feminist perspective, anarchist participation and needs of solidarity. The links on the media which Eylem is mentioning in the talk:
  • Then, Črna Luknja returns with an interview about Disgraça, an anarchist social center active in Lisbon since 2015. In March 2024, they started a process of collectively purchasing the space, as an effort to avoid paying (an always rising) rent, and secure it for the years to come. Lisbon has been devastated by real estate speculation, the housing crisis and the elitisation of culture. Various politically-engaged social centers in the city are facing evictions, seeing their contracts finishing, with no possibility to open new spaces…
  • Following this, A-Radio Berlin interviews a member of the Solidarity Fund for Imprisoned and Persecuted Revolutionaries, also known as Tameio, concerning solidarity and anti-repression work in Greece.
  • And finally, Parias of Athens shares an interview about the new case of political prisoner Nikos Romanos, represented by a person from the Nikos Romanos Solidarity Initiative.

We hope you enjoy this episode and check it out monthly by visiting A-Radio-Network.Org, where you can find other member shows, a back catalog of episodes and information about our network including how to join.

Montreal,Canada :Three Murders in 24 Hours. Night Attack on Police Training College. Justice for Abisay!

EL  FR

On Monday night, April 14th, anarchists entered Collège de Maisonneuve, which hosts the police training program, Techniques policières. The entrance was painted with “MINI COPS = FUTURE KILLERS” and “JUSTICE FOR ABISAY CRUZ” as well as other tags like “3 STATE MURDERS IN 24H” and “MAKE FASCISTS AFRAID”. A fire extinguisher filled with paint was very helpful, and a window was smashed.

We do not forget the murders and abuses committed by the Montreal police over the last few weeks; readers, please spread the popular vengeance. To the students of the Techniques policières program: drop out and change paths, it is not a safe future, neither for us, nor for you.

Burning Cables For Beginners a.k.a. Anti-Civ Arson Booklet

Translated from German. Also available in French.

“There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part. You can’t even passively take part! And you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop!” – Mario Savio

The cornerstone of a sustainable arson campaign is reliable delayed ignition. However, for small groups without a secure procurement network (which is most of them), many older instructions for making timers are simply no longer feasible.

The rise of online stores in recent years has made it almost impossible to get transistors or ICs from local electronics stores with cash. Even if there is such a store in your area, caution is advised as the police are sometimes surprisingly good at tracing back electrical components. Internet ordering is also unfortunately not an option for our purposes. If you try to solder the required parts out of cheap devices from the dollar store, you will quickly realize that the surface mount device (SMD) components used today are usually much too small to solder by hand.

This guide therefore came out of the desire to share our experience with materials that are readily available at supermarkets or hardware stores. It can also be considered an update to the ELF guide “Setting Fires with Electrical Timers”, which is still well worth reading.

Warrior Up Admin Note

From Warrior Up

After a five year hiatus, Warrior Up is back. The intention of this project remains the same: to compile guides and practical information relevant to struggles against industrial devastation.

The ‘Arson’ page compiles guides on setting fires. The ‘Sabotage Techniques’ page compiles sabotage techniques for different types of infrastructure. The ‘Studying Vulnerabilities‘ page compiles analyses of how the megamachine functions and where it is vulnerable. The ‘Maps‘ page compiles mapping projects focused on infrastructure and extractive industries.

This project relies on submissions, so please send us content, including anything published years ago that we may have missed! We now use an Autistici email:

Three nights of attacks on the prison guards and an initial summary in france

Tarascon (Bouches-du-Rhône), Wednesday April 16th, 5:20 a.m.: three cars set alight in the parking lot of the prison.

Since the evening of Sunday April 13, a wave of incendiary attacks (and not only) has hit the penitentiary and the property of its minions in a dozen towns in the south of France and the Paris region. After an initial detailed summary published the day before yesterday, here’s a short, fiery supplement on the third night, from Tuesday to Wednesday April 16, when the guards once again had a taste of ashes.

In addition, while DDPF tags (which journalists believe to be an acronym for “Défense des droits des prisonniers français”, named after a Telegram channel) were found alongside several of the targeted targets, the Ministry of the Interior also mentions “anarchist slogans”. Today, one of its daily mouthpieces gave a little more detail on this subject (Le Monde, 17/4), stating that “in Angers in particular, spray-painted inscriptions were found on the facades of houses close to the prison: ‘support for convicts’ and ‘prison kills’”. In reality, these tags had been drawn up at the beginning of April, i.e. before the attacks… which in no way detracts from their relevance, on the contrary, particularly the “crèvent les taules” (“destroy prisons”) which is so hotly topical in the area.

Lastly, in a lengthy interview with France info (17/4), the national anti-terrorist prosecutor, Olivier Christen, gave his own account of the attacks: he reported “12 incidents, two against the personal homes of prison officers, one against vehicles in the parking lots of the École nationale pénitentiaire (Enap) and nine directly against prisons”. Geographically, “eight départements were affected”, including “a third of the incidents committed in the Bouches-du-Rhône and a third in the Île-de-France region”, with a total of “21 vehicles torched and a dozen vehicles damaged” (not to mention the machine-gunning of the Toulon prison gate and the burning of the ERIS prison gate in Aix-Luynes). In conclusion, this fanatical defender of state terrorism and fervent supporter of armored propaganda, even added a layer of conspiracy theorizing of which he has a secret: “It could be groups of politically radicalized people, it could be groups more linked to organized crime, it could also be a convergence of objectives and people manipulating each other: anything is possible”.

Tarascon (Bouches-du-Rhône), wednesday april 16th, 5.20am: one of the three burnt-out cars in the parking lot of the prison. 

Tarascon (Bouches-du-Rhône). On the night of Tuesday to Wednesday, April 16, at around 5:20 am, three vehicles were set on fire in the prison’s secure parking lot: one belonged to a guard on duty and the other to a company working at the detention center.

Threat Library: Case against Louna, France

From Threat Library – Repressive Operations

On the night of May 4 to May 5, 2024, an excavator was set on fire at the construction site of a highway project.[1] On October 12, 2024, Louna was arrested and accused of setting the excavator on fire. Several other people were arrested and released soon after.

CCTV footage from the arson site showed two people setting fire to the excavator, and one of them burning themselves accidentally. In the hours following the arson, Louna was brought by car to a nearby hospital, where she was admitted for burns allegedly compatible with those visibly suffered by the person who burned themselves in the footage.

After her arrest, Louna was detained in isolation for four months — she was in isolation because she was in a men’s prison despite being a (trans) woman.[2] After her arrest, she claimed responsibility for the degradations against the excavator. She is currently under judicial supervision pending trial.

(Chile) Week of Agitation in Memory of Comrade Javier Recabarren, March 11-18, 2025

Reposted from Contrainfo

“And even if death does not occur in direct confrontation, it’s us who must relive each history, who must construct the combative memory of our siblings so that their memory isn’t transformed into a citizenist memorial, so that their face isn’t that of some idol; So that the war they made in life forms part of the revolutionary impulse. Their stories, convictions and contradictions accompany us in each action, in each night of sabotage, in each destructive impulse of the society of misery, each gesture of rebellion.”
-Belén Navarrete
Writing in memory of comrade Javier Recabarren. November 2015.

A ROAR BETWEEN ANIMALS

On March 18, 2015 anarchist and anti-speciesist comrade Javier Recabarren died after being run over by a transantiago bus on the intersection of Radal and Alameda, Santiago.

Javier, who was only 11 years old, had already participated in various anti-authoritarian initiatives, solidarity activities, meetings, demonstrations, masking up and confronting the bastard police. A slap in the face to anyone who thinks that you have to be a certain age to choose the path of conflict.

Episode 88 (02/2025)

The memory of anarchist Lambros Foundas, member of Revolutionary Struggle murdered in an armed conflict with the cops, on 10th of March 2010 in Dafni area in Athens , will always accompany us in the struggle.

In life thunder

Charged with genuine anguish for the choices, the future, the comrades, the struggle.
With sharp thoughts, forged in your own personal effort and the movement.
With decisive acts, firm, flaming.
You showed with your life that the way of the revolutionary is to say little, to act with rage and devotion. With rage and conscience.
In your memory fists tighten…
Tears become weapons…
The choice becomes more imperative.

And in death a wolf

One breath was enough for you, one decision and iron will.
With the weapon in your hand and freedom in your eyes you chased your dreams to the end.
As you lived, that is how you left. Wild and free.

When revolutionaries die
they are not lost

They ride a star and draw courses of freedom in the indefinite.
They draw with their blood what each one of us dreams but is afraid to dare.

They are fireflies in the darkness of inertia.
They are the fire, the struggle, the street.
Lets all take the fire from their fire…
lets not forget – lets act.

Honour to anarchist
Lambros Foundas

The struggle continues.

Munich, surrounding area and Austria: Repressive operations in Germany and Austria. Arrests and raids against anarchists in Munich, February 2025

Anarchists arrested and houses raided in Munich

ES/   IT/   FR/

On February 26th 2025 and the days that followed, two new investigations of the attorney general of Munich have come to light during house searches by hordes of unchained cops in various houses in Munich, the surrounding area and Austria. This has led to arrests and pre-trial detentions.

As has already happened in the past, whole flats were searched, not just single rooms. An apartment where none of the accused lives has also been broken into. The reason given for this is that they would have “close contacts”, so have therefore been searched as witnesses.
In addition, numerous persons were promptly summoned as witnesses by the Public Prosecutor’s Office as a result of this procedure.
