Ampelokipoi Case – 3rd Hearing – 04/03/2026 (detailed report)

The day began with the examination of the remaining witness for the prosecution. The witness is the owner of apartment C7. In response to questions from the presiding chamber, he estimated the total damage to his apartment at between 5,000 and 10,000 euros. He also stated that the issue of structural stability may have been raised by TERNA, without them having been provided with a copy of any technical report. The witness does not know who commissioned the TEE report or who handled the procedures for issuing the building permit. The witness confirmed that there are open shops on the ground floor of the apartment building and expressed the opinion that, theoretically, there is a structural stability issue in the event of an earthquake.

He also confirmed that the crew working on the restoration of the apartment building is small.

In response to the chairman’s questions regarding whether the residents had collectively taken any action toward the authorities, the witness replied that there is a difficulty in communication. Continue reading Detailed report of Ampelokipi Case – 3rd Hearing – April 3, 2026 (Athens,Greece)

From Napoli to Athens, solidarity is our common language-Ogni sgombero, una barricata (Italy,Napoli)

In central Athens, there is a squatted community were over 400 people from 27 different regions, speaking 20 different languages live together. They have managed to create their own self-organized reality building more than 20 infrastructures to take care of their health, education, culture. In June 2025, this community received new threats of eviction. However, what the extreme right wing government of Kiriakos Mitsotakis does not understand is that inside these 8 buildings there is so much more than walls and property titles.

Neos Kosmos area in Athens – Claim of Responsibility for arson attack on a Violanta company van (Greece)

Excerpt of the Claim of Responsibility for arson attack on a Violanta company van by Anarchist Core “Fantasy Optimism Risk”

In the early hours of 31/03, we placed an incendiary device on a Violanta company van on Baknana Street in Neos Kosmos as a minimal response to the murder of 5 workers at the Violanta factory.

The death of the 5 workers and the injury of 7 other workers after the powerful explosion that took place at the Violanta factory in Trikala on January 26th adds to the huge mosaic of bosses’ murders by the state and capital. Agapi Bounova, Vasiliki Skampardoni, Elena Katsarou, Stavroula Boukouvala, Anastasia Nasiou were murdered. Their names must remain alive in everyone’s memory as murdered members of our class.

[Heraklion, Crete] : Attack at the offices of ANEK Lines at the centre of the city of Heraklion by Anarchists ( Greece)

Attack at the offices of ANEK Lines at the centre of the city of Heraklion by Anarchists 

The tragic events at the “Violanda” factory in Trikala and off the coast of Chios island are, in the harshest possible way, evidence of the bosses’ brutal capitalist exploitation and of the murderous/racist policies of the Greek state at the borders.

In recent years, the Greek state and Greek capitalists have been
pursuing a policy of all-out attack on the country’s social base, with
criminal and deadly consequences. Some of these have shaken it to its core and left a deep scar on its collective consciousness. Continue reading [Heraklion, Crete] : Attack at the offices of ANEK Lines at the centre of the city of Heraklion by Anarchists ( Greece)

Claim of Responsibility for Arson Attack on a Cop’s House by Anarchist Strike Group “Memory and Anger” (Athens, Greece)

Claim of Responsibility for Arson Attack on a Cop’s House by Anarchist Strike Group “Memory and Anger”

In March, none of us shall die (March 2010, Daphne – Lambros Fountas, an anarchist guerrilla who fell in a clash with cops) – (March 2026, outskirts of Rome – Sara Ardizone and Sandro Mercoliano, anarchist comrades who were killed by an explosion)

In October, none of us shall die (October 2024, Ampelokipi, Athens – Kyriakos Xymitiris, anarchist guerrilla killed by explosion)

In May, none of us shall die (May 2025, Thessaloniki – Snizanna Paraskevaidou, fell in an explosion during an attack on a bank)

And the story continues like this. Through the battles of our own people, simple, everyday. Like Lambros, like Kyriakos, like Snizanna, like Sandro and Sara and so many more people who lost their lives in direct action.

Lukáš Borl – March 2026 (Czech Republic)

I have finally been acquitted of several criminal charges brought against me by the police on the basis of dubious speculation. The acquittal ruling states:

(…) the court finds that no evidence was presented that would lead to the identification of the perpetrator, and thus to the proof of the defendant’s guilt. The defendant’s guilt has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt, as required by Section 2(5) of the Criminal Procedure Code. These doubts are fundamental, logical, and insurmountable, as the expert opinions confirmed that the perpetrator cannot be identified by any scientific method.”

What made this court case unusual was that the prosecutor tried to use my book “Tato kniha není (z)boží” (This Book Is Not a Commodity) against me However, the court ultimately ruled that this book does not constitute evidence.

Arson attack against Elbit Systems and Archer-LPP, arms manufacturers for Israel and Ukraine (Pardubice, Czech Republic)

At dawn on March 20, unknown individuals managed to enter a factory belonging to Archer, a subsidiary of LPP-Holding, which collaborates with the Israeli giant Elbit Systems, notoriously among the main suppliers of weapons used by the Israeli army in the genocide in Gaza and the war against Iran and Lebanon. They started a fire that destroyed a warehouse and spread to administrative offices.

(Chile) For those who insist on risking everything. Words from comrade Francisco Solar.

FOR THOSE WHO INSIST ON RISKING EVERYTHING

For those whom neither repression nor prison can subdue.

For those who, knowing that little or nothing of the oppressive reality will change, still risk everything for a few moments of freedom. True freedom from the moment you decide to confront power first-hand.

For those who don’t adapt.

For those who are not satisfied with criticism which, no matter how radical it might be, remains just words. Continue reading (Chile) For those who insist on risking everything. Words from comrade Francisco Solar.

Statements from the two comrades Marianna Manoura and Dimitra Zarafeta in the 2 day of the trial. (Athens,Greece)

Statements from the two comrades Marianna Manoura and Dimitra Zarafeta .

Marianna Manoura

I would like to state to the residents of the apartment building that the explosion was not due to an organized plan. It resulted in the death of my comrade, Kyriakos Xymitiris, and my own serious injury. We never wanted general people to suffer, nor to cause damage to people whilst social conditions are already very serious. When our political space wants to attack it evaluates, and the logic of collateral damage is in no way consistent with its values. We use our means against the system alone.

I thank the two people who helped me immediately after the explosion. Continue reading Statements from the two comrades Marianna Manoura and Dimitra Zarafeta in the 2 day of the trial. (Athens,Greece)

About the wave of raids on 24.3 in Berlin and beyond. (Germany)

Tuesday, March 24th several raids took place simultaneously in Berlin, Hamburg, Düsseldorf and Kyritz (Brandenburg). Between 5.45 a.m. and 6 a.m. cops entered many private flats as well as the Anarchist Library Kalabl!k in Berlin-Kreuzberg, Infoladen Scherer8 in Berlin-Wedding and the Späti L5 in Berlin-Neukölln. Cops also searched cars and bikes.

The warrants allege that a criminal organisation of at least four people formed in 2025, to supposedly commit unconstitutional sabotage (verfassungsfeindliche Sabotage), i.e. the arson of a pylon at 9.9.25 which led to an energy-blackout in the technology-park in Adlershof.  The warrants were issued on a range of dates, from end of last year to one week ago. The raids were done to four accused, some of their family members and to “witnesses” (Zeugen), in Hamburg and Düsseldorf family members where raided. The warrants neither explain why these four people are accused nor what their alleged connection is. Continue reading About the wave of raids on 24.3 in Berlin and beyond. (Germany)

Continued some of the updates from the 2nd trial of the ”Ampelokipi case [02/04]

Shortly after 08:00, the transfer of the comrades took place and the trial began at 09:00 in room D5.

Another prosecution witness was examined, the owner of an apartment on the same floor in the apartment building, but who did not live there. The questions from the court focused on 3 things:

1 The condition of the apartment building, and the extent of the damage

2 Whether TERNA’s work has progressed

3 Who covers the costs of hosting the residents of the apartment building in hotels?

The witness focused on the extent of the damage and the institutionalization (!) she is now experiencing in the hotel. The latter is a blatant lie, since she did not live in her apartment on Arcadia Street before the explosion! She does not know any of the accused persons, nor the owner, nor did she notice any strange movements the days previously.

Thessaloniki : Attack responsibility upheaval by Anarchists (Greece)

In the early hours of Monday, February 9, we smashed the window of the Protergia store at 183 Gr. Lambraki Street. The reason we chose this particular target is obvious. Electricity bills are getting higher every month, so that energy barons (such as Mytilineos) can get rich off our backs, exploiting our needs. The price of energy has become an economic game on the stock market over who will make the most, while the poor live in destitution, battered by the rot of this system.

The successive crises (real or fictitious) of the state and capital are taking their toll on the social and class base. It is no coincidence that during “critical” periods, as the state labels them, companies like Protergia increase their turnover and profits. The high cost of supermarket prices, rent, and electricity makes daily life a struggle for survival.
