Houdeng, helping yourself to enemy warehouses

Houdeng-Goegnies: a Customs shed burnt down and weapons stolen
RTBF/RTL (Belgium), December 18, 2023

The Houdeng (La Louvière) customs warehouse on the Garocentre site was the target of a fire on Sunday morning. The Mons public prosecutor’s office confirmed on Monday the criminal origin of the building fire, as reported in the local press, as well as a burglary.

The perpetrators entered through a wire fence. They then broke open the sliding door. The hangar was set on fire. Several customs vehicles inside were found burnt out. Weapons, in particular, were also stolen, added the public prosecutor. It remains to be seen whether these weapons were the result of seizures or were customs property.

Germany: Thales Group Vehicle Attacked in Berlin: For Refaat – For Gaza

In the early hours of February 15, we set fire to a Mercedes van belonging to the French arms company Thales in Berlin. Standing up for the oppressed in Gaza and Palestine is a matter of dignity.

If I Must Die

If I must die,

you must live

to tell my story

to sell my things

to buy a piece of cloth

and some strings,

(make it white with a long tail)

so that a child, somewhere in Gaza

while looking heaven in the eye

awaiting his dad who left in a blaze—

and bid no one farewell

not even to his flesh

not even to himself—

sees the kite, my kite you made, flying up above

and thinks for a moment an angel is there

bringing back love

If I must die

let it bring hope

let it be a tale

— poem written by the Palestinian poet, writer and professor, Refaat Alareer who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on December 6, 2023 along with 6 members of his family.

SINDRE, A SWEDISH ANIMAL RIGHTS ACTIVIST, LOCKED UP INDEFINITELY.


Sindre is an animal rights activist, 21 years old, from so-called Sweden. Sindre is a kind and respected comrade in the animal rights community, who has fought against animal abusers in various ways.

In October 2023, Sindre was sentenced to forensic psychiatric forced care. The verdict refers to prosecution for actions in 2021, against the former fur farmer Niklas Pettersson. Sindre denies the alleged crime. Sindre was also sentenced to pay SEK 10,000 in damages to Niklas. The sentence was appealed, but later in 2023 The Court of Appeal upheld the verdict. If Sindre had not been sentenced to forensic psychiatric care, his prison sentence would have been only four months.

Düsseldorf (Germany): incendiary sabotage of railroad tracks.

de.indymedia,21 January 2024

[Switch off] Rail strike extended

We took advantage of the back-to-back strikes and protests to paralyze the rail tracks near Düsseldorf in the Eller district again two weeks ago, using an incendiary device. They could not be repaired before the start of the freight strike. The fact that the State Protection Service (Staatsschutz) is now leading the investigation shows us the potential that such simple means can develop with the right timing.

We believe that a state that destroys our means of subsistence and profits from imperialist wars is not worth protecting at all. On the contrary, we must protect ourselves from it.

(Chile) Brief Interview with the Legal Team of Comrade Marcelo Villaroel, Prisoner Currently in C.P. Rancagua ‘La Gonzalina’

Brief Interview with the Legal Team of Comrade Marcelo Villaroel, Prisoner Currently in C.P. Rancagua ‘La Gonzalina’

January 23, 2024/ informativoanarquista

Marcelo was convicted by the military court in the 90s for various urban guerrilla actions when he was a member of the Mapu-Lautaro (Marxist-Lenenist organization with which he broke ties afterward to begin moving towards antiauthoritarian paths). He was in prison for these actions for more than a decade and was released with intra-prison benefits. Said benefit was broken after he went underground when he was accused by the press and the police of having participated in various bank robberies. For these acts he would be sentenced to 14 years of prison.

From Espacio Fénix and thankful for their willingness, we present a brief interview that we carried out with the comrade’s legal team with the intention of understanding his current legal situation.

1. Under judicial logic and time served, Marcelo has already finished his sentence for bank expropriations. Why is he still in prison?

Indeed, Marcelo should already be free. But the Gendarmerie of Chile and the Public Prosecutor’s office in their various allegations and reports have added the previous sentences established by the Military Court, as if in the Security case he hadn’t served a single day.

How to locate data centers

“Getting into Fights with Data Centres” is a zine that has a guide for finding the location of data centers, using ping and traceroute.

Both of these command line applications use a protocol (ICMP) that is not supported by the Tor network. Here is an adapted version of the guide that will work from Tails.

STEP 1: PICK A TARGET

Anything with a URL or IP address will work. What’s an IP address? It’s a set of 4 numbers that works like a ZIP/postal code for the vast mail system of the Internet. IP is short for Internet Protocol, which are a bunch of rules written in the early days of the Internet to ensure that your requests and replies all eventually go where they should, even if they take different paths across the middle of the network Continue reading How to locate data centers

The “Lafarge” Case: The Investigation Methods Used and Some Lessons to Be Learned

In this case, the Marseille Gendarmerie’s Research Section was reinforced by the SDAT (Anti-Terrorist Subdivision) […] under the vague notion of “extreme violence”.

Loire: the authorities are concerned about sabotage against the power grid

An electricity pylon sawn down, the mayor of Roche-la-Molière worries about “ecoterrorism”

Le Progrès, December 26, 2023

Since November 1, when a fire broke out at the Volvon RTE substation in Saint-Bonnet-les-Oules, the Loire department has been facing a new kind of threat. Although the incident caused no immediate harm, the Gendarmerie’s investigation quickly confirmed its criminal nature, as traces of an accelerant were found on site.

Barely three weeks later, on November 20, an extra-high-voltage pylon operated by RTE on the Bessy plateau in Roche-la-Molière was sawed down. As the police took charge of the initial formalities, the event was linked to the fire at the beginning of the month and to another act of mischief in the Puy-de-Dôme region. The Gendarmerie’s research section in Lyon then took charge of the case.

Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône) France : incendiary sabotage of rail traffic

Train traffic between Marseille and Toulon interrupted due to sabotage

Figaro/La Marseillaise, January 15, 2024

This sabotage is costing users of SNCF’s southeastern rail network dearly. This Monday morning, train traffic was severely disrupted between Marseille and Toulon. Several cables were set on fire between the two stops served by TER trains, momentarily cutting off rail traffic for several hours.

The alarm was sounded at around 5:30 am. A “cable artery” that ensures the smooth running of the rail network had been “set on fire” between La Pomme and Marseille-Blancarde. “It’s not our installations that have caught fire, the fire is deliberate”, explains the SNCF, referring to “an act of malice”. The police also took fingerprints and noted the damage.
