Claim of the incendiary attack against Poste Italiane in response to the internationalist solidarity call for the release of comrade Marcelo Villarroel (Rome, March 18, 2023)

CLAIM OF THE INCENDIARY ATTACK AGAINST POSTE ITALIANE

IN RESPONSE TO THE INTERNATIONALIST SOLIDARITY CALL FOR THE RELEASE OF COMRADE ANARCHIST MARCELO VILLARROEL.

“THE URGENCY OF THE ATTACK DEMANDS FIRMNESS.”
Francisco Solar

MARCH 18: SOMEWHERE IN ROME

We greet the 150th day of our brother and comrade Alfredo Cospito’s hunger strike by giving ourselves the joy of attacking with fire the infrastructure of the Italian state, specifically we set fire to 16 cars owned by Poste Italiane.

Proud to join the campaign of revenge, against the abomination of 41 bis, the hostile life sentence and Alfredo’s death sentence launched against the Italian state, we choose to respond with this attack to the internationalist call to action in solidarity with Marcelo Villarroel 15 years after his arrest and in the context of the permanent campaign for his release proposed by comrades:
– Individualidades Afines
– Red Solidaria Antikarcelaria con Juan y Marcelo (RSAJM)

Against an existent that oppresses us on a daily basis and so that the impetus given to us by the hunger strike of anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito does not fade, we declare a permanent emergency (which gives us the urgency of our short lives) regardless of the outcome of the struggle our comrade has undertaken.

To the wait-and-see hope of a social revolution we place before the joy of denying the present without being clouded by the future.

10 100 1000 ATTACKS AGAINST THE STATE AND CAPITAL

LONG LIVE ANARCHIST NIHILISM

LONG LIVE THE BLACK INTERNATIONAL

AGAINST THEIR FUTURE: LET US SET FIRE TO THE PRESENT

Belmont, Massachusetts, USA: Bank Of America ATM sabotaged

Posted on 2023/03/18 by darknights

In the last few weeks, comrades in Eastern MA used high intensity glue to render a Bank Of America ATM near Belmont inoperable. As long as they fund Cop City (in addition to countless other exploitative projects), it is our collective responsibility to interfere with their operations in any way we can. This action was not very difficult, and we encourage others to emulate it in their areas. Solidarity to all forest defenders.

Russia & Ukraine: Radical Resistance 15.02-26.02.2023

Posted on 2023/03/18 - 2023/03/18 by darknights

Voronezh

On 15.02. trains on the Lipetsk line “changed the schedule” at night. The reason – partisans destroyed signalling systems units.

Moscow region .

On February 16, 02 in Yuzhnoe Chertanovo several guerrillas smashed the windows of a Mercedes car with Z-symbols parked in the yard, cut the car up, presumably with an axe, and poured blue paint over the interior.

No one was detained as a result of the action.

Krymsk .

On February 16, the small town of the military airbase in Krymsk was without communication. Guerrillas destroyed the mobile and Internet communications station in the area. Expensive equipment was burned down.

Kaliningrad

On 18.02 eight young guerrillas, all between 15-17 years old, set fire to a relay cabinet, which resulted in a standstill on the railroad.

Unfortunately, all the participants were detained by the police. A criminal case has been opened for intentional destruction or damage to property. The authorities claim that the group was led by 15-year-old Ruslan and that the young guerrillas were acting “on orders from Ukraine”. Such statements by the authorities are made quite often, especially when it comes to very young or very old partisans or people belonging to the lower social strata. What is behind such claims in each particular case, and whether anything is worthwhile at all, we are likely to find out only when the Russian regime is destroyed.

Irkutsk Region

On 18.02 an unknown person tried to set fire to the administration building in Bokhan. Unfortunately, the administration building of the settlement did not burn down, as it was made of brick and lined with metal siding. The attempted arson was noticed by a security guard when he was watching the video surveillance cameras. He called the police, and forensics gathered the remaining evidence. Looking for the arsonist

Cherkessk

On 20.02, unknown offenders tracked down Arbitration Court judge Salpogarov and deputy head of the Treasury of the Russian Federation Elpakanov by car, attacked them with bats, threw them on the ground and beat them up. Elkanov was taken in a serious condition to the hospital. Salpagarov “received less serious injuries.”
The attackers are being sought and hopefully they will not be found.

Genoa, Italy: Sabotaged Antenna Relay

Posted on 2023/03/16 by darknights

GENOA: SABOTAGED ANTENNA RELAY MARCH 2023

“The logic that commands us is less and less simple profit but even more ruthless scientific logic; Once a scientific discovery is made, it is impossible to go back, even if the resulting technological innovation leads us by the hand to self-destruction.”
ALFREDO COSPITO

In a society that pushes us more and more towards technological alienation, towards a future that excludes real contact by giving our existence a virtual alternative, a place based on the illusion of having control over any aspect of our time, a blinder that distracts us from reality.

As anarchists and anarchists we are aware that there is only one class that has control of hyper-technological society, and it alone enjoys its benefits, so we believe that there is no more concrete sabotage than going to strike at the heart of the future and progress.

DEATH TO THE STATE AND ITS MEGAMACHINES, FOR A FUTURE FREE FROM SCIENTIFIC EXPLOITATION.
LONG LIVE INTERNATIONALISM AND LONG LIVE ANARCHY.

Rome, Italy: Claim of incendiary attack on a TIM network distribution office in solidarity with all imprisoned anarchists around the world

Posted on 2023/03/14 by darknights

Claim of incendiary attack on a TIM network distribution office in solidarity with all imprisoned anarchists around the world (March 9, 2023)

Tim headquarters attacked

In the middle hours of the night between Thursday and Friday, March 9, we attacked a TIM network distribution office in a Rome neighborhood.

Outside the facility, a building above which are located several antennas and a giant repeater, was a closed room whose door indicated the presence of electrical instrumentation, which is why we thought it might be both a data center and the power source for the antennas and the facility itself.

We then broke into the room by opening the door with a crowbar, after which it was enough to pour gasoline on the electrical panels and cables and control units. Under the various switchboards or servers were large diameter cables, probably used to transmit data to/from the repeater. We delayed the ignition with a few little tricks and disappeared.

Due to the silence of the regimental media about the incident, we do not know exactly the extent of the damage, i.e., how many meters and switchboards are damaged; what is certain is that a fire broke out with a resounding deflagration.

TIM is actively cooperating in the ongoing technical/technological catastrophe and is at the forefront of fiber optic and 5G extension.

In addition, TIM is cooperating with those in power, the state and jailers, in the implementation of electronic bracelets aimed at monitoring people held under house arrest.

We learn from the press how the company is facing several technical distribution problems (so-called tim down), all the more reason to attack it as malicious damage adds to their inefficiency. Striking while the iron is hot: strike, strike again, strike better until the destruction of the prison company.

TIM, the state and the bosses are everywhere, to each his choice.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for placing of explosive device at a branch of Eurobank by Cell ‘Lambros Fountas’

Posted on 2023/03/14 by darknights

On March 9, just before the day changed to 10, the day on which 13 years ago in Dafni, the short revolutionary Lambros Fountas was killed in an exchange of fire with cops, we placed a device1 in a branch of Eurobank on Papanikoli Street in Halandri.

Walking alongside or in the turmoil of the days we decided to make our statement as combatants of the social war. Apart from the timeless and undeniable symbolism of attacking a bank, we cannot fail to mention the fact that this bank, apart from being located in one of the most central nodes of Halandri, is only two blocks away from the police station of the area.

Because memory is not rubbish and the struggle against oblivion is a struggle for freedom we attempted to contribute to the aggravation of the social war. A war that the state is fighting, either indifferently, as in the case of Tempi, or by targeting, as in the case of the poverty-stricken Fragoulis and Sampanis2. Of course, in this field our own side could not fail to count losses, such as that of our comrade and member of the revolutionary organisation EA [Επαναστατικός Αγώνας, Revolutionary Struggle] , Lambros Fountas.

In no way can the Tempi incident be equated with the military choice of the state to attack the oppressed in general, let alone the deeply ideological choice of eliminating a strategic enemy of the state who fell bleeding from the fire of the cop killers in a preparatory action of the organisation. The comrade with his actions gave flesh and bones to the slogan “Fear must change sides” which is the political issue of our days, accepting and accepting the all-out attack of the state and capital, we are called to change the correlations and fight back.

To make fear change sides

To honour the memory of our own dead by attacking every symbol of sovereignty. To attack state and capitalist targets by taking revenge for every moment of oppression for our own fallen in the social war, a war that is raging and will continue to rage and can only be won.

SOLIDARITY WITH THE ANARCHIST HUNGER STRIKER ALFREDO COSPITO

STRENGTH TO THE CAPTURED COMRADES

Listen how the cop’s voice trembles tonight…

DN Notes

The media scum are claiming it was a ‘Γκαζάκι’ Gazaki, when camping stove gas cannisters are used alongside petrol & even sometimes a firecracker plus a rudementary delayed fuse. Even sometimes smaller versions are thrown during riots in Greece, like an explosive molotov.

Buenos Aires, Argentina: Claim of incendiary attack on Argentine Federal Police car

Posted on 2023/03/12 by darknights

Insurrectionary solidarity with Alfredo.

Subversion may sleep, but it will never disappear!

The first week of February at night we set fire to a car belonging to the police brigade of the central department of the PFA. We had a list with their license plates. This “unit” always parked in Urquiza and Av. Belgrano. This action is a return to the path of attack.

It is not solidarity. It is the attack for those who are locked up, dead and clandestine. Down with 41 bis. Strength and brotherhood with Alfredo.

Strength and brotherhood to the combatant prisoners of long and short sentences.

Ours is the conviction, if not now, when !!!!!. Ours is the conviction.

Subversive delirium group. Circumstantially incendiary.

Atlanta, USA: Forest defenders destroy police outpost

Posted on 2023/03/10 - 2023/03/10 by darknights

On March 5th hundreds of forest defenders in Atlanta succeeded in destroying a police surveillance outpost at the proposed site of “Cop City.”

Defenders marched down a powerline clearing towards police set up doing surveillance by the forested site of the proposed urban warfare campus. This marked the biggest march in the forest thus far.

The scene unfolded by Intrenchment Creek and the Old Prison Farm/proposed “Cop City” site in DeKalb County just outside Atlanta – thousands had flocked to the ongoing Week of Action after police shot and killed a forest defender here in January.

Forest defenders overran the police surveillance outpost. Police retreated after crowd arrived at barbed wire fence and shot fireworks into the area.

Defenders smashed and destroyed the outpost’s remains, despite helicopter presence and sirens ringing in the distance. A security light post, police vehicle, and construction infrastructure were set on fire.

The proposed development of “Cop City” is a massive urban warfare training site to hone police ability to target and violently suppress black and brown populations in the US.

Oaxaca, Mexico: Claim of explosive attack against Banco Bienestar – Anarchic Informality/F.A.I.

Posted on 2023/03/09 by darknights

We claim the detonation of a homemade explosive device placed at an ATM of the Banco Bienestar located on the outskirts of the city of Oaxaca, a territory dominated by the Mexican state.

In the early morning of 14/02/23. We ignited the explosive. In the distance we heard the bang and the alarms of the bank. We calculated a more powerful impact that would cause greater damage to the ATM, and break for a moment with the tedium of social peace. This time the action was silenced by the henchmen of order and the press. We will sharpen the knife better for the next one. This seditious gesture is a combative salute to Alfredo Cospito and his irreducible war against prison and the 41 B.I.S. isolation regime.

It is clear to us that insurrectional solidarity needs will, courage and gunpowder.
We must intensify the conflict by pushing forward the attack!
For the extension of the combat and the seditious solidarity!
DOWN WITH THE 41 B.I.S. ISOLATION REGIME!!!
For the practice of anarchic vandalism against the established order!

Oakland, USA: Police Vehicle Becomes Target for Arsonists

Posted on 2023/03/02 - 2023/03/02 by darknights

Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor Sabotaged in Downtown Oakland

Saturday, February 11th 2023 during the early morning between 1 and 3 am.
The war against the police continues in the East Bay. One Oakland Police cruiser was sabotaged in the Police Administration building parking lot, resulting in it being towed. An accomplice looked out for oncoming traffic and returning police vehicles, while the other approached the lot from the opposite direction.

Officers lazily patrolling the area were easily clocked. There was plenty of time to open the gas cap, which was unlocked to our surprise. Torn cloth soaked in lighter fluid and isopropyl alcohol was stuffed into the gas tank. It stayed lit and ignited the rest of the gas inside, causing it to burn while cops in their SUVs watched and waited for the fire department to come. This took roughly 10-15 minutes while cops sat on their asses, afraid to approach the car.

In the name Tyre Nichols and all black people who have lost their lives to the hands of the police Fuck 12
