( Greece EN/FR/ES/DE ) For my Comrade Kyriakos X. by Anarchist comrade Marriana M.

Marriana a warm embrace from afar. Your strength and courage inspires us, Translated by Act for freedom now!  via: athens.indymedia


For my Comrade Kyriakos X. Goodbye my comrade,

“You shall turn into ashes, old aged world your path towards your crushing end is written and you cannot break us killing our brothers/sisters in battle and know this we will come out victorious even if our sacrifices are heavy”

Nazim Hikmet

So, belatedly, I would like to write a few words about my comrade and fellow traveler for the last 6 years of my life, K. Xymitiris, who departed this life in an apartment on Arcadia Street. I met comrade Kyriakos in the city of Berlin a few years ago.

Our common determination and agony for a better world quickly brought us together. With midnight conversations at the bar where he worked and walks through the city’s alleys, we exchanged views, with Kyriakos having the most solid opinions and insight on every matter I had concerns about.

Our shared vision grew roots within us, at the same time creating a strong relationship based on understanding, comradeship, and love. Together we struggled and formed our positions about everything that troubled us. I grew up with him on a journey looking for my struggle identity.

And Kyriakos always by my side, not in front or behind, beside me. Holding my hand, supporting me, with his smile and his insight. Always giving the right answers when everyone else was unsure , clearing the landscape where all the others felt lost. With a developed sense of solidarity, he always stood by anyone in need, without caring about repression, targeting from authorities, or his own well-being.

Always prominent in all struggles: against repression, gentrification, forced labour, colonialism, patriarchy, prisons. Indispensable as a comrade and as a friend, wherever he was, he filled the space with his modesty and fighting spirit.

Supporting unity in the struggle for the revolutionary cause and the confrontational, fighting and counter-attacking mentality always with respect for everybody standing beside him, giving space where all others suffocated.

This is how he lived, at least next to me, committed and persistent, optimistic and joyful. Ready for anything, taking risks, small and big, he dedicated his everyday life to the struggle, without a second thought.

Always there next to me, his friends and comrades, anyone who was in need of him about the smallest or the biggest thing. Always there to take on the most tiresome, the most risky role.

Always there to hold our hand, to accompany us, to open the way.

Always there by my  side for the immigrant, the abused, the worker, the prisoner.

And always by my side to support me, to help me, to listen to me, to fight with me, to embrace me sending fear away, to encourage me driving second thoughts away, to fill the days and nights with comradeship and fighting spirit.

COMRADE KYRIAKOS No goodbye is enough. No text can describe the pain of your loss. On 31/10 I was left in half, down a road where I wanted you by my side. On 31/10 I lost the smile that only you knew how to bring. On 31/10 I lost the optimism that only you could transmit to me. But on 31/10 I also made a promise to you, to me, to us and to so many others that you would not be forgotten. On 31/10 I stayed behind to talk about you, about the struggle you gave and about those you did not have the chance to give. On 31/10 I raised my fist and with my bloodied mouth I swore to FIGHT. On 31/10 I raised my fist and amidst the ruins of Arcadia Street said KYRIAKOS XYMITIRIS PRESENTE!

“Our most beautiful days we haven’t lived them yet and what I want to tell you the most beautiful of all haven’t told you yet”

Nazim Hikmet

With boundless love

your comrade Marianna M.

Indonesia: Burning of campus building in East Java in solidarity with Nikos Romanos and all anarchist prisoners

Communique from Indonesia, east java:

Note: english translation is only a part of the whole communique
“A few days ago, precisely on November 22nd. I personally, who am not affiliated with any affinities, would like to give a communique.
That there was a burning of a building at one of the leading campuses on the south coast of East Java. I want to claim that the action was my doing.

What I did was purely solidarity with distant friends who have never met face to face. Especially to Nikos Romanos, Der Enzig and all the other anarchist prisoners. This is total revenge on the ward that gave birth to the disaster, namely the campus. I am isolated and not caught.

 November 30th, we call for a solidarity demonstration with the imprisoned comrades M.M., D.Z., D. and N.R., at 18:30 in Monastiraki Square in Athens

The text of the convention:

October 31 forever etched in the heart of every fighter. With anger and determination we stand by our comrades

On 10/31/24, after an explosion in an apartment in Ampelokipis, our anarchist comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris fell in the battle for social and class liberation, while our anarchist comrade Marianna M., who was also in the apartment, ended up in the Annunciation hospital with multiple injuries. Two more people were arrested at the same time, and taken to the investigator, with the comrade Dimitris and the anarchist comrade Dimitra being remanded in custody. While remaining a multi-injured patient for 15 days in Evangelismos hospital and just one day after the second operation in a row, on the morning of Friday 11/15 the anarchist comrade Marianna was transferred to Korydallos prison.

The pressures of the anti-terrorist trash, which work in close cooperation with the investigator who has taken over the case had resulted in the comrade being discharged and taken to the women’s prison of Korydallos, where there is not even a hospital and therefore the possibility to she is provided with appropriate care for her injuries. We make it clear in all directions, whatever happens to our comrade will have consequences and will not be left unanswered. Such impositions of state power are clearly torture.

Flamanville (Manche): A few bolts less for an EHV pylon

A few bolts less for an EHV pylon near Flamanville
(Indymedia Nantes, September 30, 2024)

The EPR nuclear reactor in Flamanville, on which work which begun in 2006, is nearing completion and could be connected to the power grid this autumn. This step, known as “coupling”, is decisive for making what would then be France’s most powerful nuclear reactor operational. The Flamanville EPR and the announced future EPR2 reactors (Penly 3 and 4, Gravelines 7 and 8, Le Bugey 6 and 7) add to the 56 reactors currently operating in France, not counting the nuclear reactors used to propel military submarines and an aircraft carrier, and the few research reactors in service.

Pylon! Pylon! Fire, Fire!

Attempting to recount pylon woes from late 2022 to the present day, based on communiques and publications from recent years

Against the nuclear industry, the electrical grid and the power supply of capitalism’s most harmful… Pylons are targets. The aim here is to highlight the vulnerability of the power grid order and, in a way, to demonstrate the ability to attack capitalism using this angle.

Pylons can topple to block electricity production (as at Brennilis on January 15, 1979), but they can also target the supply of a harmful industry (as in the famous film Woman at War, which targets the aluminum industry)…

At the end of 2022, two reports from south-eastern France demonstrated the relevance, and indeed the effectiveness, of these actions

In Salindres, in the Gard region of France, the electricity supply to the chemical-industrial hub was targeted. The resistance fighters who claimed the toppling of the 225,000 volt pylon even indicated the method used, allowing anyone to cut off the electricity where it doesn’t belong!

Carrara , Italy: Incendiary  attack against three heavy vehicles at a marble quarry in the Campocecina area (Carrara, 3 November 2024)

Incendiary  attack against three heavy vehicles at a marble quarry in the Campocecina area  in Carara

Tongues of fire

In the night between Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 November a fire lit up a moonless night on the Apuan mountains, destroying three heavy vehicles in a marble quarry in the Campo di Cecina area near Carrara.

In these places where it is easy to pass unobserved machinery and structures indispensible to the industrial system are often left lying around.

May this kind of blaze spread against devastating machines and their miserable owners.

Call to Action Against the PRGT Pipeline (Canada)

  • via: mtlcounterinfo
  • As of August 2024, construction work has started on the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission (PRGT) pipeline. The project is owned by Western LNG and the Nisgaa Nation, the latter which has allowed for construction to start on their land first, the rural Nass river valley that sits adjacent to the Pacific ocean. State and industry are committed to developing an “energy corridor” through the remote region. The nearly completed and fiercely contested Coastal Gas Link pipeline was the first pipeline in the southern energy corridor, and PRGT is the first pipeline projected for the northern energy corridor. The line is set to end at Ksi Lisims LNG terminal (Nisgaa owned as well) where liquid and natural gas would be stored and prepared for export to international markets by tankers. LNG is being sold as a green alternative for those looking to shift away from coal. But the green transition is a lie.

    We know that energy, and its current reorganization, is inseparable from domination, capitalist exploitation and the extractivist logic that devastates the land. We propose attack.

    Update from the 2nd session (1-11-2024) of the trial of the arrested comrades from the battle at the Squatted Prosfygika on the 22nd of November 2022 (Athens,Greece)

    On Friday 1-11-2024, after an adjournment, the trial of the arrested comrades from the battle of the Squatted Prosfygika* on the 22nd of November 2022, resumed. The proceedings of this second trial began with the last defence witness, psychiatrist and scientific director of the18 ANO Addiction Unit until her retirement, Katerina Matsa. Her contribution was quite important, as she described in a direct and experiential way her relationship with the community of Squatted Prosfygika, from the point of view of the rehabilitation unit and the psychological support committee that undertakes and carries out issues related to the mental empowerment of our fellow human beings in need.

    Through her testimony, Katerina Matsa highlighted the moral value that comes from mutual help, a value that is expressed through the neighbourhood relationships. She pointed out the open character of the community, which in fact is embodied in various forms of self-organisation (e.g. by producing conversations and debates around social issues, etc.). In addition, reference was made to the general socio-political framework of agreement between people who come to participate and support the community, without necessarily being residents -without borders-, thus making it clear that solidarity functions in an exemplary manner and in line with the moral content of everyday life in the Prosfygika neighbourhood. Finally, reference was made to the redevelopment plans and how they are related to the raids-interventions of the cops, whose only purpose is the destruction of an entire neighbourhood of equal coexistence and collective struggle.

    After today’s 22/11 provocative pre-trial detention of Nikos Romanos with the only “evidence” being a fingerprint found on a bag in Arkadiou, thus linking him to the Ampelokipi case, a responsive march of solidarity with the persecuted comrade was held in the old town of Chania on Friday evening.

    The fairy tales of the state and the cops, as reproduced by the media, told to lull a society that is in slumber, always seeing terrorists in the world of struggle, while the real enemy hides behind the guise of law and order.
