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.

Munich (Germany): geothermal energy gets hot (and not only)

Munich : geothermal energy gets hot (and not only)

On Wednesday October 18, Munich’s reluctant public prosecutor issued a statement designed to reassure the brave Bavarian electorate. This time, it wasn’t a question of licking the hand of the authorities, as usual, but of making public a few facts about a case that has been giving him a hard time since the beginning of the month. He thus announced the creation of a specialized group called “Geo”, made up of various investigators from the criminal investigation department, whose aim is to study the sabotage committed throughout Bavaria. Indeed, it’s perhaps no coincidence that the local press was already alarmed last week that “politically-motivated acts have increased considerably” in the region of late, particularly against communication, transport and energy infrastructures.

The name of this police task force, announced with great fanfare by the public prosecutor, refers to the triple sabotage incident in Polling, a village some 50 km east of Munich, which took place around 3.30 a.m. on Sunday night, October 2. There, under the stars and in just a few minutes, ten construction machines and the electrical transformer on the site of a geothermal power plant under construction, as well as a timber extraction vehicle parked in the adjacent forest and a cable shaft along the Mühldorf-Garching railroad line, went up in smoke.

Cars as Cameras: A short overview of Tesla surveillance features and lessons for attack 2023

“Cars, especially newer vehicles with built-in computer systems, know everything about their users and, consequentially, the people around them. Tesla is taking this a step further, turning cars into mobile, high-definition video surveillance systems. […] What should anarchists take away from this? How can we continue to attack this panoptic hellscape and get away with it?“

Berlin (Germany): incendiary attack on a telecommunications antenna by Anarchists

Berlin (Germany): incendiary attack on a telecommunications antenna

On the night of October 19, we placed several incendiary devices on the exposed cable bundles at the foot of the telecommunications antenna in Herzbergstraße, Berlin-Lichtenberg. On a trailer, we tagged the reason for our appearance there: Switch-Off.

Attacking the structures that maintain this technologized nightmare world opens up possibilities for the instinct to rebel. It’s not so much analyses and theories, let alone ideologies, that drive us, but rather desires and aspirations, especially for something that even we, as anarchists, sometimes fail to say, or downplay, for fear of seeming ridiculous. It’s about freedom. Of our individual freedom and that of our fellow human beings with whom we want to live. If anything prevents us from experiencing freedom today, it’s not just material conditions, borders or alienation, but also the extensive smartification of life in favor of technologies, which unleash bloody wars for resources and claims to power, while leaving people paralyzed in front of their screens. All this serves to maintain domination and social order, from which many benefit. Yet it is in technology itself, which enslaves us and has until now been the greatest tool of the powerful, that its Achilles heel lies, and that we are attacking it in a targeted manner.

Munich : sabotage of geothermal energy construction site

On the evening of Monday October 23, a new energy infrastructure site was targeted in the Munich area. Green capitalism advocates be damned, after the triple arson attack on a geothermal power plant under construction in Polling (some 50 km east of Munich) on the night of October 2, this time it was the large pipes of another geothermal line that were attacked south of the Bavarian capital.

Yet Another Brent Scarborough Machine Destroyed (USA)

On the night of October 1st, the Brent Scarborough site across from the penitentiary was visited for a third time and an excavator was burned.

They still have overnight security but we didn’t run into them. We know people are afraid. We are afraid too, but we move through fear by taking action. Hearing a machine explode as you walk away is actually really freeing.

The upcoming mass action has set us a deadline. We have from now until November 13 to stop the “movement’s next phase” from being defined by NVDA. We honor our dead by following their struggle through to the end. Start making your way to Atlanta or take action where you are.

Disturbing the Windows of Barcelona (Spain)

Disturbing the Windows of Barcelona

“Pla Endreça” is a demonstration of power through which the government of Collboni intends to erradicate all forms of expression that escape state control. Looking at the past years, this is nothing new: The same techniques as the Colau – increasing the number and weapons of the local police and more repressive methods – only that this time they do it openly, vindicating it in the name of the citizenry.

We loathe a society of citizens who are loyal to capital and obedience, loyal to the peace constructed out of cameras and fingers pointing at those who break the authoritarian schema. We want nothing of this structure, its tyrants, nor its followers: we don’t want order. This is why we attack where it hurts, at a headquarters of false promises of a nonexistent good life.

Chignin (Savoie) France : Tesla barbecue

Fire on the parking lot of a Tesla dealership: 14 electric cars burned
Le Dauphiné/Numérama, October 6, 2023 (excerpt)

“I was awakened by the sound of an explosion,” says Michel Ravier, mayor of Chignin. The fire broke out at around 3 a.m. on October 6, 2023, in the parking lot of the Tesla Chambery Center on Route Nationale 1006 in this quiet village of around 1,000 inhabitants. The mayor immediately arrived at the Tesla dealership, shortly after the first sounds of an explosion and just before the firefighters, who quickly worked to extinguish the blaze. Le Dauphiné Libéré reports that 45 firefighters took part in the operation. In all, 14 Tesla cars were destroyed by the flames, before the fire was brought under control by the fire department.

Seyssinet-Pariset (Isère): fire at the high-voltage power line pylon (France)

Electrical pylon fire in Seyssinet-Pariset: a possible deliberate act

Le Dauphiné/France Bleu/France3, September 25, 2023

The alarm was sounded at around 3 a.m. on Monday September 25 in the commune of Seyssinet-Pariset (Isère), on the outskirts of Grenoble, when large sparks were visible from afar, particularly from the other side of the Drac river.

The fire department then responded to a blaze on an electricity pylon supporting two high-voltage lines, on the Chemin de la Digue in Seyssinet. The fire raised a number of questions, given the difficult accessibility of the pylon. However, the fire is not thought to have affected the power supply to homes in the area.

Berlin (Germany): two excavators set on fire at a Strabag construction site

Two Strabag excavators go on climate strike – Switch Off

de.indymedia,  23 September  2023

It’s gratifying to see that attacks on the companies and infrastructures that fuel ecological catastrophe are currently multiplying. Even if they’re just a drop in the ocean, they’re an expression of the fact that not everyone is content to make demands of politicians or look on with resignation as the world goes to shit.

On the night of Monday September 18, we added two excavators belonging to the Strabag company to the list of targets attacked under the slogan “Switch Off”. Unfortunately, we were able to extinguished before they definitively disappeared, but it was enough to bring the construction site on Köpenickerstraße in Berlin’s Mitte district to a standstill.

The night of August 17, barricades were raised and molotovs were thrown at the Carabineros (COP). At least three of these molotovs were thrown at the front of the Human Rights Unit of the PDI (Investigations Police), steps from the UAHC. No one was detained and pamphlets were left declaring support for mapuche prisoners and claims for the 50 year anniversary of the coup.

Castelldefels (Spain) – More street vendors, fewer cops

Castelldefels: More street vendors, fewer cops

More street vendors, fewer cops: attack on the Castelldefels Vigilance Service

On the night of August 20, the premises of the Vigilance Service in the Playafels district were attacked with spray paint and a hammer. This local has been built recently, for the purpose of helping the municipal police of Castelldefels [Note of Attaque: commune south of Barcelona] to do their favorite work, which consists of cracking down on street vendors in the area.

The Parti populaire in Castelldefels is following the same path as Collboni [Note of Attaque: the new socialist mayor of the regional capital] in Barcelona, with the Pla Endreça: increasing the number of cops, monitoring and limiting individual freedoms, to transform the city into a system of control where repression intensifies as it becomes more difficult to slip through the net.
