Düsseldorf (Germany): Double blow to rail traffic!

[Note of Sans Nom: In Germany’s seventh largest city, Düsseldorf, located in the North Rhine-Westphalia region, the “Angry Birds Commando” has been making headlines regularly for several years. In August 2024, for example, it claimed responsibility for a fire involving railway signaling cables in Mettmann, adding to its previous acts of sabotage against rail traffic: one in Düsseldorf in January 2024, and five others in the same city claimed in May 2023. After generously sharing a manual entitled “Burning Cables for Beginners” in the fall of 2024, it revisited its own vision of collapse in its Communiqué No. 4 published in January 2025, then claimed responsibility for the sabotage of three new telecommunications antennas in June 2025.

In the middle of summer, the “Angry Birds Commando” has caused yet another disruption just days before a huge rush: on the night of Wednesday, July 30 to Thursday, July 31, on one of Germany’s most important railway lines, between Duisburg and Düsseldorf, where more than 620 trains pass daily (excluding freight trains) and just a stone’s throw from the airport, a double simultaneous attack was carried out on the cables along the tracks. The first damaged nearly 60 meters of cable near a signal box, and the second, a kilometer further on, destroyed five fist-sized cables, each measuring 20 meters in length. Responsibility for this sabotage was claimed in Angry Bird Commando’s communiqué no. 6, published on July 31 on de.indymedia, which we have translated from German below.]

Railway sabotage – Communiqué No. 6
Switch off the system of destruction

The Rhine-Alpine corridor connects Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Duisburg, Cologne, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Basel, Zurich, Milan, and Genoa, some of Europe’s most significant economic centers. In the Duisburg-Düsseldorf-Cologne region, this corridor encounters one of its many bottlenecks. Any disruption to rail traffic at this location has direct or indirect repercussions on this economic area due to the rerouting of the impacted trains.

$hile: Update on the third and fourth weeks of the trial against compañeros Aldo and Lucas Hernández

Update on the trial against comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernández.

On Monday, August 4, the third week of the trial against comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernández began. Both were detained in connection with the investigation into the explosive attack against the National Gendarmerie Directorate.

During these more than 10 days of trial, the evidentiary phase has continued, with various witnesses and experts presenting testimony that supports the prosecution’s case presented by prosecutor Claudio Orellana. Specifically, last week saw the testimony of gendarmerie officials who were at the scene on the day of the explosion. Part of the routes taken by the individuals who planted the device, at least one of whom has been identified by the police as Aldo, have also been revealed, although no material evidence has yet been presented to reliably prove their involvement in the incident.

(Chile) Words from fellow anarchists Aldo and Lucas Hernández

For an August of black memory of struggle…

The absence they leave behind for their comrades must have an impact on the daily lives of those who knew them, those who exchanged more than a few words with them must miss them, and how could they not? Who is prepared for the death of a brother or sister? Even if we can put ourselves in the situation, the scenario, there is no certainty of being prepared. All feelings are personal and individual; what one feels inside must be experienced firsthand in order to speak of the loss.

We did not walk with you, we did not know you, but our comrades bear witness to your determined and resolute journey to face this reality.

These lines are to bring Luciano, Belén, and Lupi to mind, so that no comrade has to die in a distant memory, but rather be present in every moment that one decides to confront the establishment.

For Luciano, Lupi, Belén, Santiago Maldonado, Macarena Valdés, and so many others who died or were killed…

First week of a Black August.
Aldo and Lucas from “La Gonzalina” and “Santiago Uno.”

Berlin,(Germany): Police raid in Rigaer94

It’s been almost four years, but today they knocked again: at 6.00 in the morning 27/08 we woke up to loud voices, chainsaws, ankle grinders and hammers on the doors. Out of 200 cops which were in the street, around 100 entered the house. Supposedly there were in total 700 cops related to the raid deployed in the city.

As usual the cops used the opportunity to cause as much chaos and destruction as possible: Multiple doors were destroyed completely or deconstructed, furniture, handrails and windows were demolished, parts of the fence to our neighbours yard were ripped off, cops peed on toilet seats and so on. Even though they did not have a warrant for it, they, among other things, stole documents and technical devices. Continue reading Berlin,(Germany): Police raid in Rigaer94 →

Security Culture and Safe Houses: Sustaining the Network, Nurturing Continuity

“In the world of resistance without formal structures, especially within anarchist networks, security culture emerges as a foundational principle that permeates nearly every aspect of collective and individual life. […] The safe house, meanwhile, is the most tangible embodiment of that spirit. […] Nothing is ever truly “safe” in a world under perpetual surveillance, but the safe house becomes a space where survival — both physical and mental — remains possible to fight for.”

Challenges of Police Investigations Into Anarchist Direct Actions

Translations: French • German • Greek • Italian • Mandarin (Simplified) • Russian

 

Let’s say a few anarchists are planning an illegal, anonymous direct action. For example, they want to paint a wall, or smash a bank, or burn down a government building. The goals of the police are to prevent actions like this from taking place and/or identify and arrest the anarchists and gather enough evidence for them to be convicted. What can the police do to achieve these goals, depending on their motivation, their resources, the type of action, and the way the anarchists organize? What challenges will they face? And how can anarchists identify these challenges as weaknesses in order to exploit them and act without getting caught?

This text aims to contribute to answering these questions by addressing some points that we think have been insufficiently explored in anarchist literature in recent years.

Anarchist Convergence and Bookfair Berlin 2025

November 7-9, 2025

Mehringhof (Gneisenaustr. 2A, 10961 Berlin)

*DE unten. IT di seguito. РУ ниже. ΕΛ παρακάτω. ES abajo.
More translations to be published.*

If one follows world events with open eyes, the question arises: why are we anarchists and our ideas and methods so socially irrelevant at this point in history?

Raging wars and a variety of global crises increasingly highlight the inability of those in power to offer real solutions. If their best response is to sow fear and conscript us as drone and cannon fodder, then the current situation demands revolutionary responses from below. What do we have to propose?

From November 7th to the 9th, we want to come together at Mehringhof in Berlin-Kreuzberg, get to know each other and our different realities, and exchange ideas. We gather not only to react to the new failures of the state and capitalist system, but also to develop our own long-term responses and build resilient networks and structures based on mutual aid and communality, as well as an anti-authoritarian, non-reformist and antagonistic stance.

The meeting sees itself as an experimental space for self-organization, with co-creation by all participants. As the initiating group, we organize the space for the meeting as well as a certain framework (food, pre-selection of events, time allocation…), which can then be filled with life by all of us who come to the meeting. It will be possible to hold several events at the same time.

If this appeals to you, we welcome you and your proposals – in the form of talks, discussions, workshops, films and other artistic contributions on the following topics:

  • War, genocide and military mobilization
  • Decolonial movements (e.g. Palestine, Sudan, Congo)
  • Advance of the right and social fascization
  • Earth destruction
  • Criticism of technology (e.g. AI and co)
  • Health autonomy
  • Feminism (esp. patriarchal dynamics in the anarchist movement)

If there are other topics that are close to your heart, then of course it is also possible to bring them in.

Everyone is invited to contribute their practical experiences in (self-)organizing. Historical and theoretical contributions are also welcome if they focus on nourishing the practice and building stronger connections to current struggles.

On one hand, we seek to facilitate international exchange and knowledge transfer, so reports and continued discussions from previous anarchist events are strongly encouraged. Translation between German and English will be provided, and we invite speakers of other languages to volunteer as interpreters as well.

On the other hand, with this gathering we hope to strengthen the relationships between anarchist circles and individuals in Berlin, of which there are fortunately many, but which often exist side by side without much exchange between them.

Please contact us in case you:

  • have event proposals
  • could translate at the event
  • would like to draw/design a poster (it would be nice to have several)
  • could provide a place to sleep
  • would like to support otherwise

Here are the forms to facilitate the submission of your proposal:
Call for Participation.

We are looking forward to your contributions. Please, repost and translate the call. See you soon!

Threat Library: Arson Forensics

PDF available below

From Threat Library, updated August 23

Arson forensics (also known as fire investigation) is the application of science to the investigation of arson. Arson forensics aims to determine the origin and cause of a fire and, if it is suspected to be arson, to gather evidence that could help identify the potential arsonists.

An adversary can usually easily determine whether a fire was accidental or arson. It is difficult to carry out an arson and make it appear accidental to an adversary who is knowledgeable in arson forensics.

Fire scene investigation

Fire scene investigation is the inspection of the scene of a fire, looking for:

  • The ignition source that started the fire and the fuel that source ignited. For example, in an accidental residential fire the ignition source may be a malfunctioning electrical outlet that overheats and the fuel may be a sofa positioned against the outlet. In an arson the ignition source may be a match and the fuel may be gasoline brought by the arsonist.
  • Patterns left by the fire on walls, floors, ceilings, and objects. These patterns can indicate where the fire started and how it spread. For example, a fire that starts at the base of a wall may leave a distinctive V-shaped burn pattern on the wall.
  • Eyewitness accounts and video surveillance footage of the scene of the fire before, during, and after the fire.

When a fire occurring inside a room reaches a high enough temperature — typically between 500°C and 600°C — it reaches the flashover point. During flashover, the room is so hot that all ignitable surfaces ignite more or less simultaneously and the fire spreads rapidly throughout the room. Once a fire has reached flashover it is usually significantly harder for the adversary to interpret the patterns it left on walls and other surfaces.

Enbridge Sabotage: Disruption of Service on Line 9B (Canada)

The boreal forest is burning, the water is being poisoned, all the trees are being cut down, and the treaties are being betrayed. The mirage we call “liberal democracy” bows down to the oil lobby. There is talk of new pipelines that will cross the country like scars, new gas projects that will disfigure the land.

Our history has always been that of an extractive colony founded on plunder and dispossession. It’s up to us to put an end to this disaster.

Last night, we attacked line 9B. This pipe of death snakes through lands stolen from Indigenous peoples, transporting the world’s dirtiest bitumen through waterways, cities and our lives. We hit two control valves, destroying the electronic equipment before vanishing into the night.

From equals to equals

Against identitarian authoritarianism

PDF IN ENGLISH:

We are some anarchist comrades who took part in the “Sabotiamo la guerra” assembly[1]. With this writing, we want to speak out on a troubling episode that occurred at our assembly, (not the only one of this kind, but the most serious) but above all on a forma mentis and an ideology that now make such episodes systematic. If we present ourselves in such a circumscribed manner, it is because “Sabotiamo la guerra” is precisely an assembly made from time to time by those who participate in it, and we cannot speak on behalf of all its many past, present, and future participants. Having said that, let us begin to explain ourselves.

On 11, 12, and 13 October 2024, the “three-day” discussion “Sfidare la vertigine” (defy vertigo), organized by our assembly and dedicated precisely to some of the vertiginous but inescapable questions posed by the present (starting with those related to the war, which constitutes no more and no less than the historical horizon), was to take place at squat “Villa Occupata” in Milan. The “three days” was postponed sine die, indeed canceled, due to the opposition of some (we emphasize: some) frequenters of the Villa, who accused a comrade participating in this path of rape, and the assembly itself of supporting him. It would have been simpler and more convenient for us to ignore this episode and carry on, as we have done on other occasions when similar attempts have been made to thwart our initiatives due to the presence of this comrade on our path. Instead, our consciences told us to express ourselves.

Colombelles: arson attack on Effiscience technology campus

Indymedia Lille, June 2025

On a weekend marked by the widening scope of warfare in the Middle East, and by the Paris Air Show, we have decided to disrupt activity at the Effiscience technology innovation cluster in Colombelles, which brings together a number of companies from the military-industrial complex on the same “campus”: Safran Data Systems, Sotraban, NXP semiconductors, Telit Wireless Solution, Nucleopolis, CLARA, Probent Technology, Atos & Bull technologies, Eff’Innov Technologies…

On the night of June 22/23, we set fire to two fiber optic cabinets located on the rue du Bocage at the site. The flames were beginning to rise when we left. We can imagine that internet connection will be difficult in the area tomorrow morning.
