Munich (Germany): the series of nocturnal attacks continues

On Monday night, November 26, two excavators went up in smoke in the Au-Haidhausen district of southeast Munich. More precisely, at around 3 a.m., they went up in flames in Zeppelinstrasse, where a bicycle path extension project was underway. The two burnt-out construction machines belonged to the Strabag Group, one of Europe’s largest construction companies, involved in every conceivable infamy on the planet.

In the prison-city that serves as Bavaria’s capital, this is of course not the first time that construction equipment has been set ablaze at night, each time causing “several tens of thousands of euros” worth of damage, as on this chilly late November day. Since 2019, the police have counted no fewer than thirty such incendiary attacks in and around Munich, a review of which can be found here.

Guadeloupe: seizing the opportunity of a blackout…, island in the southern Caribbean Sea


Guadeloupe: seizing the opportunity of a blackout…

On Friday October 25 in the French colony of Guadeloupe, shortly after 8:30 a.m., striking EDF employees in a month-long dispute with their management invaded the control room of the Pointe Jarry thermal power plant, shutting down its 12 engines*. Given that this power plant supplies almost all the electricity on this archipelago of 380,000 inhabitants, this provoked “a generalized electrical incident” – in other words, a blackout that lasted 39 hours and 28 minutes, until the evening of October 26 and the full restoration of electricity on the island.

Following the impromptu shutdown, the authorities dispatched gendarmes half an hour later to regain control of the control room, and then issued a prefectoral decree requisitioning the employees needed to get the thermal power plant back up and running, which took several days. On the street side, given that the blackout was set to last, the prefect also decreed a curfew (7pm-6am) for the night of the 25th to the 26th throughout Guadeloupe, then in 11 communes for the following two nights (10pm-5am): Abymes, Baie-Mahault, Basse-Terre, Gosier, Lamentin, Le Moule, Morne-à-l’Eau, Pointe-à-Pitre, Petit-Canal, Sainte-Anne and Sainte-Rose… to ensure that no one takes advantage of the blackout to carry out property transfers or targeted destruction. Officially “to limit the movement of people who might take advantage of the lack of light to damage property…”.

Which, of course, is exactly what happened! So, let’s take a non-exhaustive look at what happened in Guadeloupe when alarms, cameras, street lamps, neon lights and cell phone masts were suddenly deprived of juice…

UK : Rail Services Disrupted Following Theft of High-Voltage Cable Worth £100,000

standard.co.uk

Will be disruption to trains to and from Bolton this weekend after high-voltage cable worth £100,000 was stolen. Engineers discovered that the cable was missing when they arrived to carry out work in the Lostock area of Bolton over the Christmas period.

It comes as part of work to electrify the line between Wigan and Bolton, which began in 2022. The cable provides power to the overhead line equipment, which in turn powers electric trains across the tracks.

Berlin (Germany): double incendiary attack against the concrete industry

via: sansnom Translated by Act for freedom now!

[On the night of Sunday to Monday, December 2 in Berlin, at around 3am, a double incendiary attack destroyed around twenty concrete trucks at two industrial sites in northern Berlin. The 8 concrete mixers torched in Gehrenseestraße (Lichtenberg district) belonged to the Mexican multinational Cemex. And the 9 concrete mixers torched on Pyramidenring (Marzahn district) belonged to the German company HeidelbergMaterials.

You may recall that these two global concrete giants had already been attacked several times in the German capital: on December 27, 2023, CEMEX was set ablaze for the first time (five concrete mixer trucks arsoned, as well as the bulk conveyor belt and a technical building near the silos), then a second time on January 19, 2024 (two excavators present on the Berlin A100 highway construction site). On March 15, 2024,HeidelbergMaterials was attacked (six concrete trucks destroyed and three excavators damaged on the A100 highway construction site).

Here is a translation of the claim for the latest attack, on December 2, which hit both Cemex and HeidelbergMaterials at two separate sites, a text that appeared on indymedia germany on the same day].


Switch off the concrete industry

Flames once again lit up Berlin’s cold, dark nights. On the morning of December 2, machines and vehicles belonging to concrete giants Cemex and Heidelberg Materials were reduced to ashes.

Home Of Ghost Robotics CEO Flooded (USA)

Early thankstaking morning* we flooded the home that Ghost Robotics CEO Gavin Kenneally is trying to sell. He used to live there but seems to have moved out after the home started getting attacked.

In July his home was tagged and in October it was tagged again and windows were broken. To create more lasting damage we ran a hose from a wall faucet through a small hole we punched into a glass door and turned the water on. Ghost Robotics develops robot dogs that are used in occupied Palestine and at the US/Mexico border.

We took the fox we saw slipping under a fence as a good omen and hope the water kept running all night.

Let us each be a small drop in a liberating flood that drowns all authority!

Greece: FOR THE SUPPORT OF THE FUND FOR PRISONERS AND PROSECUTED REVOLUTIONARIES: For Kyriakos Xymitiris.

For Kyriakos Xymitiris.

December 2024

“Arm yourself and be violent, beautifully violent, until everything explodes. Because, you must remember that any violent action against these promoters of inequality is clearly justified by the centuries of infinite violence they have subjected us to.”
Mauricio Morales

Words are sometimes hopelessly inadequate to describe the state of affairs. There is no word that accurately describes the mental pain that revolutionaries feel when fellow travelers, who together traveled miles in the struggle against the barbarity of power and exploitation from person to person, lose their lives violently. Especially when the thread of life is cut in the most tragic way, in the process of less visible or even completely invisible risks, risks that prepare the ground for an imminent attack on the world of power. But if this one word existed, it should carry in turn the words

Pain, Rage, Revenge…

This October will forever remain in history as another star that went out early, shooting thousands of black arrows into the depths of our souls.

Since October 31, after that cursed explosion on Arcadia Street in Ampelokipi, the world of struggle has been left once again in ruins. Anarchists, communists, fighters, we are reliving the pain of violent separation. We are reliving the sudden shock of realizing that there are fewer of us left in this difficult struggle, losing a bright smile and a tireless and sparkling gaze, which we must realize we will never see again in any amphitheatre, in any demo, in any solidarity bar.

Thessaloniki, Greece : Greeting to the memorial for anarchist comrade Alfredo M. Bonanno in Carrara, Italy en/it

To the comrades of Carrara, who will honour the memory and struggle of anarchist revolutionary Alfredo M. Bonanno at the Circolo Culturale Anarchico ”Gogliardo Fiaschi” on December 8th 2024.

Comrades,

By raising our insurgent fists from the Greek metropolis, we welcome your initiative to honour the memory of the comrade Alfredo M. Bonanno. A few kilometres away from you, the answer to the question “Why is it necessary to highlight the historicality of the work of the comrade Alfredo”, lies in the simplest of concepts: the constant need of a free person to revolt against misery and the constant necessity for the world of poverty to be completely destroyed.

At a time of political retreat and reform, it is our collective duty to undo the natural death of a comrade, giving breath and vibrancy to the propositions that characterized his life and his passing from every field of struggle. To fight radically and with a point of aggression, to sharpen the conflict in all the fields of social antagonism. To fight to win, not moments, but the totality of freedom.

Berlin (Germany): attack on the arms company ThyssenKrupp

ThyssenKrupp grows rich on war and genocide

Many are angry. Angry at the genocide in Gaza. Angry at the bombs falling on civilians, schools and hospitals. Against global military rearmament. Against the bloodshed and forced displacement of millions. Against propaganda for “war capacity” and a Germany “ready to defend itself”. Against arms supplies and arms industry profits, and against plans to reintroduce compulsory military service. Against automated assassination through AI-directed drone attacks.

Too much anger.
That rage was unleashed yesterday.
Against the arms company ThyssenKrupp.
Yesterday, three trucks were set on fire at the ThyssenPlastics plant in Berlin, and a warehouse was set on fire.

Why ThyssenKrupp?

Through its subsidiary ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS), Thysenkrupp makes billions building warships of all kinds. These include submarines, corvettes and frigates produced in Hamburg, Kiel and Emden. Thyssen Krupp Marine Systems (TKMS) is Germany’s sole supplier of submarines.
