Sainte​-​Soline (Benefit EP)

On Saturday 25 March in Sainte Soline (France), our comrade Serge was hit in the head by an explosive grenade during the demonstration against
the water basins. In spite of his state of absolute emergency, the
prefecture knowingly prevented the emergency services from intervening in a first time and to engage his transport in an adapted care unit in a second time. He is currently in neurosurgical intensive care. His vital prognosis is still engaged. Another comrade, Mickael, was hit in the throat by an LBD shot and had to undergo delicate brain surgery. Others lost an eye, a foot, a hand, their hearing, etc. There were 200 injured after an hour of confrontation with the cops.

Athens: Banner of solidarity with the French rebels

Last week, as a sign of solidarity, a banner was hung on the Mustoxydis bridge for the oppressed and exploited who have been revolting and fighting in the streets of France for many weeks against the increase of the retirement age to 64 years.

Unreserved solidarity to all those in struggle.

Solidarity to those injured and traumatised by State repression.
Strength to comrade Serge, injured by the cops, who has been in a coma for 17 days.

Greece: Rage and solidarity from Thessaloniki March 2023

Rage and solidarity from Thessaloniki March 2023

Tuesday 28th March 2023, in Thessaloniki, 500 people demonstrated in support of the social movement in France. The communiqué concerning the comrades of S., who is in coma following the repression in Saint-Solinia, was read in English and in Greek.

On our banner, the slogan was taken up which was used after the racist murder of the young Kostas Fragoulis, shot by the police last December: the blood flows, calling for an uprising!

In France as in Greece, the bourgeoisie uses violence as a defense mechanism. In order to face them, let us build our solidarity beyond their borders.

We support all the victims of the repression in France.

We share your rage. Long live the revolution!

Athens,Greece: Solidarity Gathering Saturday 22/4, at Koridallos prison.

“It’s a struggle of resistance to not be buried alive! It is a struggle for hope, for freedom, for life itself.”
Prisoners of Korydallos Prison

Since 28/10/22 the prisoners of the Greek hellholes have been sending their own message of resistance against the new toughened penal code by carrying out a Circle of escalating mobilizations.

Their demands include the return of prisons to the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice, the abolition of C-type prisons, the right to 1/5 off the sentence for all (from 5/6) and 8 years for multi-lifers, the right to request a transfer to a rural detention centre for all without exception, to bring back the amendments to the article on educational leave, temporary leave to be made independently of the prisoner’s disciplinary record, and the immediate granting of leave to people with 67% or more disability, such as Savvas Xiros, who is being held vindictively and sadistically incarcerated, with a disability of 98%. This mobilization is essential resistance of the prisoners with the few means they have.

Athens,Greece : ALFREDO OUT OF 41 BIS!

ALFREDO OUT OF 41 BIS!

Open assembly to organize a response commensurate with the importance of the situation

The struggle waged by anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito against the 41bis prison regime and the life imprisonment without parole has reached its most dramatic point. Notwithstanding the opening of contradictions (opinion of the DNAA, opinion of the DDA of Turin, opinion of the PG at the Court of Cassation, order of the re-examination of the Sibilla Operation) every time an institutional organism with effective power to resolve the question opened by the comrade has met, the most manectarian and warmongering faction of the State has invested all its political power to crush any possible opening.

We have said it too many times: Alfredo’s death sentence is now an established fact, if the comrade is still alive we owe it solely to his extraordinary resistance. The decision to lock up an anarchist in 41 bis prison regime for the first time, taken by the previous Draghi government and Minister Marta Cartabia, as well as the determination to persevere in this criminal choice by the new right-wing government of Meloni and the current minister Carlo Nordio, count as an act of war. The tip of the iceberg of the “internal front” of a larger war, which on the international level is fought between NATO and the Russian Federation, and which is being expressed in our home with an unprecedented attack against social antagonism, against conflictual unionism and especially against action anarchism.

Germany: Annual Chaotic – Anarchist Meeting from the 13th to the 16th of April 2023 in Bielefeld.

We want anarchy. We want freedom and autonomy for all without domination and borders. We want the subversion of the existing. We want social revolution.

So that our will and our ideas won‘t stay phrases without content, we have to confront ourselves with the surrounding reality—that is, with those conditions and this world in which we‘re forced to live here and now.

That‘s why we create a public space, to come together, meet each other and start to talk to one another.
We want to discuss. In bigger and smaller sessions, with new faces and known ones.

Where are we? How ought we struggle? Where to intervene, without compromise, organisations and without getting trapped in politics? And with whom? What does it mean to talk about revolt, insurrection and social revolution in a world striving for the abyss on the one hand and turning a digital prison on the other?

The meeting will take place from the 13th to the 16th of April 2023 in Bielefeld.

All anarchists, wild hearts, free spirits, subversives, and rebels recognizing themselves in this invitation are welcome.
There will be sleeping spaces and food. The number of sleeping spaces isn’t infinite. The earlier you let us know you are coming, the better. Additionally, there are parking spaces close by for those who bring their vans to sleep.

You will find a detailed program and more information in March on this blog: https://acat.noblogs.org/
Email: acat[ät]supernormal.net

So far, we have been considering the following topics:
• anarchist perspectives on war • recuperation of struggles by political parties, organisations, and other authoritarian sects • anarchist perspectives and interventions in social struggles (i.e. youth revolts) • social revolution in the face of dystopian conditions • anti-patriarchal struggles • dealing with repression, prison, and persecution • struggles against the digital enclosure of the world

In the meantime, there will be a lot of space to hang out an get to know each other. Bring your distros!

EN/GR/: Important updates on the health condition and the condition of imprisonment for the anarchist Alfredo Cospito (Italy)

Important updates on the health condition and the condition of inprisonment for the anarchist Alfredo Cospito

Alfredo has NOT ended the hunger strike!

The news circulated in the media these days is false and slanderous, as is now the habit in this story: he was offered milk, but Alfredo refused it. If he decides to start eating again, he will follow the instructions given to him by his trusted doctor some time ago.

In view of the hearing on April 18, he decided to resume supplements: potassium to stabilize the heart, vitamins to try to stem the neurological problem in the lower limbs, and proteins. After the hearing at the constitutional court in Rome, called to express itself on the legal legitimacy of granting or not extenuating circumstances in relation to the conviction for 285 c. p. (“massacre for the purpose of undermining the security of the State”, which only provides for life imprisonment) decreed by the cassation in the context of the Scripta Manent process, will decide how to proceed.

Anti-State Gathering-Demo in Solidarity with the anarchist hunger striker (since 10/20/22 in Italy) Alfredo Cospito on Sunday April 9th, at 13:00, Thiseio Metro Station .

FREEDOM TO ALFREDO COSPITO

FIRE TO 41 BIS AND ALL FORMS OF INCARCERATION

Alfredo Cospito is an anarchist who has always been active in the frontline of struggles. He was never willing to compromise nor to give up. He is a comrade who has been fighting since the end of the 80’s, a period during which he was imprisoned as a total conscientious objector (for refusing to serve mandatory military services).

Alfredo has always been active in defending comrades affected by repression, in every corner of the world. He has been contributing for many years with articles, editorial projects and proposals to the international anarchist discussion/debate. For this reason, he has been censored many times and his communication with the “outside world” has been forbidden. He has been in prison for 10 years (since 2012), during which he was in High Security prison sectors until he was transferred to 41bis inMay 2022, from Terni prison to Bankali prison in Sassari.

The 41bis prison regime entails 24/7 electronic surveillance, 1 person per cell of 2×3 meters, 1 hour per day for socializing in a group of 4 people (the seperation into these groups is decided directly by the bureaucrats in Rome and is valid for several months), 1 visit per month of 1 hour with no physical contact, separation with glass divider, under electronic surveillance, with audio and video recording (only if the family members are unable to visit, a monthly 10-minute phone call is allowed as an alternative, but to do so, the prisoner’s family member must go to a police station or in some prison), no physical contact, censorship and control of written material, presence at court only through video-conferences.

[Poster] FREEDOM for Georgia Voulgaris, P. Kalaitzis, Th. Chatziaggelou

FREEDOM for Georgia Voulgaris, P. Kalaitzis, Th. Chatzianggelou

At dawn on Tuesday 8/2/22, two comrades were arrested following an operation by the “anti-terrorist police”. The reason was the burning of the “Foundation for National and Religious Reflection” in Thessaloniki. In the house where they were arrested, “incriminating” evidence was found which, in the context of the Terror Law, acquires a “felony” character. Later, another comrade was arrested. All three were remanded in Korydallos prison, prosecuted under the Terror Law (187a) for their participation in the organization “Anarchist Action”, the arson of the “Foundation for National and Religious Thought” and other actions.

Anarchist Thanos Chatzianggelou claimed responsibility for this arson and the findings in the house, and later on 10/3/22 he claimed political responsibility for his participation in the organization “Anarchist Action”.

The anarchist Gewrgia Voulgaris defended the choice to have a supporting role in carrying out the action. She remained in custody for 7 months and then the prison board decided to continue her detention under house arrest with an electronic bracelet.

P. Kalaitzis, whose only connection to the case is his relationship with the house and his companion, friendly and collegial relations with T.H. denied all charges and after 7 months of pre-trial detention he was released from prison with restrictive conditions, to sign every 1st and 15th of the month and a ban on leaving the country.

TRIAL TUESDAY 4/4, 9:00am LARISA COURT
The war against the State and capital is unceasing, unyielding and multiform. The struggle for equality, freedom and solidarity may have losses, but it will be victorious because justice is on our side. No criminalisation of anarchist comrades, social and friendly relations.

Assembly of Solidarity with the Prisoners, imprisoned, fugitives and persecuted fighters.
