Vitrolles (Bouches-du-Rhône): the sabotage of high voltage lines cuts power to the airport of Marseille and Airbus

Vitrolles: arson attacks on high voltage lines
BFM Provence/RMC/VA, December 20-21, 2022

Two high-voltage electrical installations were the target of arson attacks on Sunday night in Vitrolles (Bouches-du-Rhône). One of the two fires led to a power failure at part of the Marseille-Marignane airport. For the moment, these actions have not been claimed.

According to information from RMC, around 4pm on Sunday night, two high voltage electrical installations were the target of arson attacks. These actions were performed on two pylons a few tens of meters apart and led to power cuts. 9,000 households were thus deprived of power for about twenty minutes in the communes of Vitrolles, Rognac and Septèmes-les-Vallons following the damage to one of the installations.

On Saturday, November 19, 2022, at about 1:30 a.m., two cars burned in the parking lot of the Bundeswehr University in the Neubiberg district of Munich.

The two vehicles, an Audi and a BMW, were more than 50 meters apart, and “the fire could not have passed from one to the other,” according to a police spokesman. A manhunt was immediately launched, including the intervention of a helicopter, but no suspects were arrested. For the time being, the police are not linking the incident to other fires in Munich, although potential similarities are being investigated.

Radical ecology: looking at the sabotage of France

Le Figaro, November 9, 2022

Deliberate fires of electrical boxes for 3G/4G antennas and relay antennas in Savoie, fiber cabinets set on fire by tires in Finistère, cables cut in Var or Isère, sabotage of protected sites in the name of “social justice” in Cahors and Haute-Garonne… This is the map of a France sabotaged methodically by ultra-left-wing and radical ecology groupings that Le Figaro has exclusively revealed.

TVA Quebec vehicles vandalized
Le Journal de Montréal/Le Soleil, October 18, 2022 (excerpt)

At least seven vehicles belonging to TVA Quebec [a private Canadian television network owned by telecommunications giant Quebecor] were the target of vandalism on Monday night. Several windows and headlights were smashed by the perpetrators.

The police of Quebec City were called on the scene at around 5:30 a.m., Tuesday. They confirmed that a complaint was filed for vandalized vehicles, belonging to a company located on Wilfrid-Hamel Boulevard. On one of the vehicles, the vandal wrote the letters CAQ, in reference to the government [the Coalition avenir Québec is the party in power since 2018]. On the surveillance cameras of ExpoCité, we see a man in a balaclava approaching the vehicles, he then left on his bike.

It wouldn’t be the first time TVA employees returned to work with a nasty surprise. Their vehicles are often targeted by vandals on the road or during demonstrations, so all the news

Marseille : and one beautiful night the internet was cut off 

[Update: According to specialized sites of the industry, this coordinated sabotage struck not only several international cables in Marseille (the Amsterdam-Paris-Lyon-Marseille line, the line coming from Barcelona and the one going to Milan), but also another one in Aix-en-Provence, affecting the delivery of internet via the submarine cables which leave the port of Marseille to serve Asia.

If the national press has for the moment released sparse information so as not to sound the alarm and avoid giving bad ideas, several impacted Internet operators have nevertheless had to publish “incident tickets” following these sabotages. Cogent (North American manager of huge fiber optic networks carrying 17% of the world’s Internet traffic) said for example that one of the attacks occurred “on a private site of the water company of Marseille, which is also a major hub for fiber cables for various operators”, and the French data center manager OVH said in particular that “the cut has impacted the link between Marseille and Singapore” by “saturating all the Internet traffic coming from the United States and Europe” to this state…]

Free: the possibility of sabotage behind the general outage in the Gers
La Dépêche, October 12, 2022 (extract)

A major network failure has affected hundreds of homes in the Gers since Tuesday, October 11. Customers of the operator Free are victims of a service interruption following a potential act of vandalism on a fiber optic cable, located in the town of Blagnac (31). Neither calls nor access to Internet have been possible for more than 24 hours. From Auch to Vic-Fezensac through Lectoure or Monblanc, the area affected by the incident extends over almost the entire department and beyond. Some communes in Haute-Garonne and Tarn-et-Garonne are also affected by a network failure.

Technicians were mobilized from Tuesday afternoon to identify the origin of the failure. It was in the town of L’Isle-Jourdain, using an optical reflectometer (a device to determine the integrity of a fiber optic cable) that the source of the incident was detected … 35 km away, in the neighboring department. In the early afternoon of Wednesday, a Free technician was reviewing one of the fiber installations on one of the splitters in the town of Auch, [when] one of his colleagues told him the news: the operator’s equipment had been the target of an act of vandalism. The latter also specified that the incident was detected at the level of an access ramp to the A621 freeway in the commune of Blagnac.

Berlin/Herne: double sabotage sends rail traffic into turmoil

An act of “sabotage” paralyzes rail traffic in Germany

France24, October 8, 2022 (excerpt)

An act of “sabotage” aimed at radio link cables caused, Saturday, October 8, the paralysis of rail traffic in northern Germany. For nearly three hours on Saturday morning, all high-speed and regional connections in the north of the country were interrupted.

After the partial restoration of traffic, the Deutsche Bahn company said that a “sabotage” was the cause of the failure. This sabotage has targeted “cables essential to the movement of trains,” said the German company to AFP. More precisely, it is the GSM-R (Global System for Mobile Communications-Railway) radio network of the trains used for communication with drivers but also, more generally, “central interface between trains and the infrastructure” of control, according to Spiegel, the first media to mention, citing security sources, suspicions of sabotage.

Mering : summer sabotage of rail traffic

On the night of Sunday, July 31 to Monday, August 1, 2022, between 9:00 pm and 3:00 am, the cable shaft of the signal box in Mering (Bavaria) was deliberately set on fire. Many regional trains between Munich and Augsburg were cancelled for 48 hours. The attack also severely disrupted long-distance ICE and Intercity trains from Nuremberg, Ulm and Stuttgart – all of which passed through this important rail hub – causing long delays and cancellations.

According to a Deutsche Bahn (DB) spokesperson, who had to justify the late return to normal operation, it is caused by burned cables along the tracks: “About 15 cables, each containing more than 500 wires, were affected and had to be replaced. These cables control, among other things, the signals along the line and important functions of the Mering signal box.”

Pittsburgh, cop cars torched

Last September 28 in Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania) around 2:30 am, three large police cars were destroyed. They were casually sitting in front of the police training center, along North Lincoln Avenue in the northern part of the city, when they were deliberately set on fire by unknown perpetrators.

Firefighters who arrived on the scene were unable to do anything, and according to “an expert” widely quoted in U.S. newspapers, the number of attacks on police vehicles is even on the rise in Pittsburgh since 2018, “straining the relationship between law enforcement and the people they are supposed to protect.” Go figure…
