Basel: No internet or TV for the Christmas holidays!

This is the fourth act of sabotage in five days at Rheinfelden, a few kilometres east of Basel: Thursday evening, some newly repaired fibre optic cables of the Improware company were cut again in two places.

This happened after some municipal fibre optic cables were deliberately damaged various times during the new year holiday season: on 23rd December, at around midnight, several bundles of fibre optic cables, with up to 288 optic fibres per bundle, were cut. This damage was repaired on Christmas eve and affected around 600 clients of the cable network. On Christmas day, 25th December, some optic fibre cables were destroyed by incendiary objects at Riehen (north district of Basel) this time, and the next day on Decembver 26th othe optic fibre cables were damaged in another place in Rheinfelden.

Chastre, Belgium: flaming new year for the cops

Two police vehicles set on fire in Chastre

A local blog (Belgium), 1st January 2024 (extract)

New year’s eve wasn’t calm for the police in Brabant Walloon. At around 3am a vehicle of the local police of the Orne-Thyle district was set on fire in the car park of the town hall. The fire spread to a second police vehicle parked next to it.  The wind was quite strong and encouraged the burning of the two cars. Several explosions were heard in the neighbourhood.

The police arrived at around 3.30am, a few minutes before the fire fighters with two lorries. A number of [cop] vehicles are usually parked in the town hall car park at night. This is the first time they have been the target of arson.

Greece: SOLIDARITY DAY on February 9, 2024, FOR THE FINAL RELEASE OF COMRADE POLA ROUPA & THE IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF COMRADE NIKOS MAZIOTIS EN/ FR / GR / DE / IT / ES

We call comrades in Greece and around the world to be vigilant and act in solidarity:

9/2| SOLIDARITY DAY FOR THE FINAL RELEASE OF
COMRADE POLA ROUPA & THE
IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF COMRADE NIKOS MAZIOTIS

Comrade Pola Roupa and Comrade Nikos Maziotis were sentenced to several years in prison for their participation and action in the guerilla organization Revolutionary Struggle.

They were imprisoned and served the combined 20-year prison sentence to which they were finally sentenced (after the “breaking” of their life sentence for the bombing attack on the Bank of Greece-branch of the European Central Bank-office of the International Monetary Fund in Greece, by Revolutionary Struggle Commando Lambros Fountas).

Comrade Pola Roupa served 8.5 years of real prison (13.5 years mixed), while her partner Nikos Maziotis has already served 11 years of “closed” prison and a total of 14 years mixed. That is, 3/5 of their sentence as state laws dictate.

Comrade Pola Roupa was released from prison with restrictive conditions on November 17, 2023, and a few days later, on November 28, 2023, the deputy prosecutor of Evia filed an appeal against her release, requesting that she be taken back to prison. This unprecedented event led comrade Pola Roupa before a new judicial council at the court of Chalkida on January 10, 2024, in order to judge from scratch whether she will remain free or continue to be a prisoner in the cells of the republic.

Sabotage on the Northvolt Site: Arming the Forest (Canada)

One of Montéregie’s last natural environments is in jeopardy! The planned construction of the Northvolt battery plant in Saint-Basile-le-Grand is an ecocidal disgrace. If this project goes ahead, 1.4 square kilometers of wetlands and woodlands will be razed to the ground, serving the greenwashing strategy of our governments, and doing so with public funds.

The area is home to a diverse fauna (bats, birds, amphibians, turtles, snakes, etc.), including several species classified as “threatened” or “endangered”. There are even 142 species of birds that frequent the site! At the same time as public transport companies are undergoing a wave of budget cuts, the provincial and federal governments prefer to give $7.3 billion to the private sector to perpetuate the “car culture”. Instead of investing in more environmentally-friendly collective solutions (trains, buses, car-sharing) in the city and the regions, the governments are perpetuating our dependence on the car, hand in hand with polluting industries and the wealthy.

Machines burned at Urban Alchemy construction site in north Portland (USA)

We burned bulldozers and excavators being used to build another Urban Alchemy site in North Portland, where homeless Portlanders will be sent to live behind chainlink fencing and barbed wire under threat of violence and sweeps.

UA says it “provide complementary strategies to conventional policing and security”, and, like police, it’s employees have consistently used their positions to bully, degrade, steal from, and sexually assault those living within their fences.

Nancy,France: Anarchist comrade Boris convicted on appeal for the fire of two relay antennas

Nancy,Boris convicted on appeal for the fire of two relay antennas

sent to Lille Indymedia 01/22/24 by abc
translated by others a little later

On September 25, 2023, the Nancy Court of Appeal tried again the anarchist comrade Boris (transl. as is customary the word companion is used in the French, which highlights more the sense that everyone is fighting their own struggle), for having burned the relay antenna of the four telecoms operators, as well as that of the cops and gendarmes, in April 2020 on the Mont Poupet (Jura).

Following this attack which had mobilized in full capacity technicians of the Ministry of the Interior until the bottom of the Jura valley to try to restore their communications as soon as possible, the DNA of the comrade had been found on the spot. After months of eavesdropping and surveillance conducted by the Anti-Terrorist Group (GAT) of Dijon and members of the GIGN specially come from Versailles (transl. equiv. to SAS or Special Ops), and as part of an investigation entrusted to the Specialized Inter-regional Jurisdiction (JIRS) of Nancy, Boris had been arrested in Besançon on September 22, 2020.

Watermael-Boitsfort (Belgium) : police under fire

 Police targeted in two molotov attacks at Watermael-Boitsfort
Sud info/DH, 13 January 2014

Two incidents took place during the night of Friday to Saturday. They took place a few hours apart.

Just before midnight, a police car parked in rue des Nymphes in Watermael-Boitsfort, near the Calypso swimming pool, was targeted with a hail of molotovs. In the end it was a car parked just next to it that caught fire. Agents quickly reached the scene and a “firecracker” then exploded. The two policemen complained of tinnitus. One arrest was made in the crowd after a chase [before releasing the suspect due to lack of evidence].

( Netherlands ) UPS tires slashed in Amsterdam. Vengeance for Tortuguita

UPS tires slashed in Amsterdam. Vengeance for Tortuguita

On a dark and stormy night in Amsterdam the tires of several UPS delivery trucks spontaneously deflated. Maybe because the metal beasts were tired of transporting the junk produced by capitalism and decided to Switch Off. Or perhaps it was because a feral forest creature sank its claws into their rubber underbelly, enraged at UPS financial support for the construction of Cop City.

Vengeance for Tortuguita who was murdered one year ago by the pigs in Atlanta.

UK: Civilization is a cancer. Letter by imprisoned anarchist comrade Toby Shone

Letter by imprisoned anarchist comrade Toby Shone

“It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.”

– Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Some matters should be denounced in the strongest terms, one of these is the way prisoners health is addressed. Neglect and mistreatment are endemic, if not malice, institutionalised. I was scheduled an MRI scan and blood tests for tumour markers in late October 2023 at the Bristol Royal Infirmary. I should have been put on medical hold and provided that treatment, but I was transferred to the long term High Security Estate where I did not receive the blood test by the prison medical team until late December. The results of those blood tests have never been disclosed to me by the prison medical authorities. In fact, I only got the results after a comrade called my Bristol NHS Oncology Unit.

Twice the prison team have failed to facilitate a telephone consultation with my doctor to receive the blood test outcome. The prison medical system has totally failed in every way to provide continuity in my oncology pathway. My scheduled MRI scan, which I have not been given any information about, is not being declared to me for fear I will use the opportunity to make an escape.
