Italy – News from the prison of Spini di Gardolo: beatings and abuse

During a gathering outside the prison of Spini di Gardolo on 9th January 2022, we managed to communicate with some prisoners and here is what they told us about the current situation in the prison, which the director and the local authorities take great care not to make known.
A prisoner asked us to deliver to the prison guarantor (for the PAT, A. Menghini) his version of an episode which a prison union recently passed off in the media as “assault on the guards”. The prisoner maintained he was brutally beaten by the guards, who later also seized his crutches. After the beating he wasn’t adequately examined or taken to hospital.

Avis de tempêtes #49, janvier 2022

Avis de tempêtes – bulletin anarchiste pour la guerre sociale n°49

“Depuis l’émergence des cités, la puissance économique a
fondamentalement toujours marché sur les mêmes deux pieds : énergie et extraction. De l’esclavage au nucléaire, le progrès économique additionne les sources énergétiques qui confèrent toujours plus de puissance aux dominants, et vice versa, car c’est l’exploitation des sources énergétiques qui alimente directement la domination. A l’instar de l’extraction du pétrole qui a libéré une vertigineuse force énergétique, vieille de millions d’années, donnant des dimensionsinouïes à l’industrialisme et à la guerre à l’échelle mondiale, l’économie numérique et électrifiée dépend de la vitesse d’extraction des métaux qui lui sont nécessaires. Ainsi se dessinent les lignes de front où sont et seront menées de terribles batailles. Chambouler leurs prévisions, transformer les occasions et situations en facteurs de désordre et d’imprévu, scruter ces lignes de front où l’ennemi se montre certes confiant, mais cependant plus vulnérable qu’ailleurs, se jeter dans les conflits qui se dessinent en y apportant sans tarder l’action directe, voilà des cris de bataille qui pourraient nous mettre
activement sur les traces de l’ennemi.”

Communique of DESTROYING OF ATM AND TICKET-MACHINE (Poland, Wroclaw)

DESTROYING OF ATM & TICKETMACHINE
Poland, Wroclaw city:
“Insurrection lesson one, or why we destroyed an ATM and a ticket
machine. For ACAB day (13.12), we decided to kill the cops in our heads and shatter the illusion of order and peace that authority spreads.
So we smashed up the ATM and the ticket machine*. The displays were destroyed and the rest was glued with mounting foam.
We destroyed those things not to protest or make demands now, but because it was relatively easy and low risk. We want to learn how to attack this fucked up world so we can fuck it up even more in the future. Continue reading Communique of DESTROYING OF ATM AND TICKET-MACHINE (Poland, Wroclaw) →

Île-de-France: New Year’s fireworks for prisoners are not cancelled!

Saturday 1 January 2022
While the cops were busy spoiling the party of those disappointed by the cancelled fireworks in the fields, we went and set some off in front of several places of incarceration in the Ile de France.
In front of the Mesnil-Amelot detention centre, we set off fireworks and shouted some messages of solidarity with those imprisoned; for freedom, against confinement. In recent months many revolts and escapes have taken place there, and we wanted to show our solidarity. We arrived a bit late, those detained there were no longer in the yard, so unfortunately we didn’t hear them, their voices going in another direction. But other comrades in the area heard them.

Gratkorn (Austria): Brand new excavators burned

Monday 27 December 2021
The Gratkorn hydroelectric power station, under construction on the Mur river north of Graz, lost two excavators in flames of rage. The material damage is enormous. Energie Steiermark [a company producing and distributing electrical energy, three quarters of which is owned by the Austrian state of Styria] wants to keep up its green image, but it has to contend with clouds of black smoke…
Since the completion of the hydroelectric power station on the Mur in Graz, a project that had been the subject of major protests for years, many people thought the struggle was over. Yet the roadmap of the big companies has not changed. Verbund [Austria’s largest electricity producer and one of the largest producers of hydroelectric power in Europe] and Energie Steiermark are still wreaking havoc along the Mur, building one dam after another, ripping out thousands of trees, and ignoring the concerns of nature conservationists. The images of the many dead fish after the flood of mud will not be forgotten.
Your greenwashing plans are not a solution to the climate crisis, but maintain the status quo, so that everyone can continue to consume as much (electricity) as they want. Continuing to consume comfortably: THAT is the real interest of today’s civilisation!

HUNTING HIGH SCHOOL VANDALIZED, HUNTING TOWERS SABOTAGED (SWEDEN)

1st January, Sweden.
“FOR THE WOLVES – A FIRE BURNS IN THE SWEDISH FOREST! HUNTING HIGH SCHOOL VANDALIZED! HUNTING TOWERS SABOTAGED!
Hunters in so-called Sweden began this year with the mass murder of wolves. The snow is stained with blood. SCUM! Unfortunately we were unable to prevent the wolf slaughter, this time. Yet ALF went out into the woods. On the first day of the year we vandalized and sabotaged, against the hunters. We caused financial damage to a hunting high school! Vile hunters should not teach children to kill nonhuman animals. We destroyed five hunting towers! Death monuments do not belong in the wild. Hunting is murder! We lit a, fitting, fire in the night! In honor of the wolves killed in the forests. To show our anger.
We will never stop fighting hunting, saving lifes.
FCK HUNT!
UNTIL EVERYONE IS FREE!

Ottawa: RBC Branch Redecorated in Solidarity with Wet’suwet’en (Canada)

Fire extinguisher full of white paint was used on the facade of a RBC branch located in Ottawa during the holiday week.
The action was meant as an answer to the calls to action from the Gidimt’en clan who retook possession of “Coyote Camp” with their allies. We stand in solidarity with the Wetʼsuwetʼen nation and against KKKanada’s genocidal project.
Fuck CGL, Fuck the RCMP, fuck RBC, Shut down KKKanada and get the fuck out of the Yintah!

We Won’t Stop: RBC Head Office Attacked in Montreal,Canada

The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) funds Coastal GasLink (CGL), the pipeline fiercely opposed by Wet’suwet’en land defenders for over a decade. As we enter 2022, despite three RCMP raids, land defenders at Coyote Camp stand in the way of CGL drilling under the sacred headwaters of the Wedzin Kwa. RBC and all of CGL’s investors must understand that this pipeline will not be completed.
On the evening of December 30, 2021, more than a dozen windows were broken at the RBC head offices for Quebec, in the middle of downtown Montreal. No one was arrested.

EN/FR/IT/ES Updates about the situation of Claudio Lavazza (France)

Updates about the situation of Claudio Lavazza
The prosecutor Céline Bucau of the Mont de Marsan Court, after months of pretexts and procrastination to avoid pronouncing the total amount of years that Claudio still has to serve, yesterday – January 11 – came to the decision that the concurrent sentence (of his Spanish and French sentence) should amount to 30 years.
The French justice system thus adds 5 years (out of the 10 years to which Claudio was sentenced for bank robbery in France) to the 25 year Spanish sentence.
Now that the concurrent sentence has been defined, the lawyer can present an appeal to the Appeal Court of Pau for our comrade to be released on parole. The parole possibilities are going to be considered based on the years he has already served (25 years). Continue reading EN/FR/IT/ES Updates about the situation of Claudio Lavazza (France) →

More Smashed Windows for RBC (Canada)

We noticed RBC is having some trouble replacing their broken windows. We’re going to chalk it up to supply chain delays that all of the branches that had their windows smashed two months ago still have tape and plywood patching up their facades. Meanwhile, RBC continues to fund Coastal GasLink, so on a recent night in late December, we gave them four more windowpanes to replace at the branch at the corner of Monkland and Harvard in Notre-Dame-des-Grâces.
Sending love and strength to Coyote Camp and land defenders everywhere.

Hamilton: RBC Attacked for Funding CGL Pipeline (Canada)

There’s lots of smack to be said about Santa and, as anarchists, we aren’t big cheerleaders for the bearded guy; but we can appreciate that his sneaking game is on point. So a few of us celebrated this year by doing some sneaking of our own.
Late into the night on Christmas 2021, a call was answered to attack the banks and funding sources of the CGL pipeline that is being forced on the Wet’suwet’en people. Banks – like RBC – are very easy targets as they have many branches across the cities we live in that are relatively unguarded at night. A Hamilton branch, on Upper James, was one such branch visited and redecorated.

ITALY: THE CENSORSHIP OF CORRESPONDENCE FOR ALFREDO COSPITO WAS RENEWED

We inform that in January the censorship of correspondence (incoming and outgoing) to anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito, currently imprisoned for a 20-year sentence in the ‘Scripta Manent’ trial, was renewed. We remind that censorship was also previously ordered between September and December 2021.
Alfredo was recently subject of an arrest order in the context of the ‘Sibilla’ operation of November 11, as he is accused of incitement to commit crimes with the aggravating circumstance of the purpose of terrorism, in relation to the publication of the anarchist paper ‘Vetriolo’. The arrest order was subsequently annulled by the court of re-examination of Perugia on December 16, while the case against all the investigated comrades remains open.
Revolutionary solidarity with the imprisoned anarchists.
The address of the comrade:
Alfredo Cospito
Casa Circondariale di Terni
strada delle Campore 32
