Russia: Radical Resistance 12.03 – 18.03.2023

Posted on 2023/03/26 by darknights
FSB building on fire

Bashkiria

On March 12, near Karlaman station the electrics in the SFT1 cabinet, responsible for centralization and interlocking of communication systems, were completely burnt out.

Buryatia

On March 14 SFT was destroyed in Buryatia. We have already written about this action, but now it became known that the action took place in Smolensk at the same time.

Smolensk

On March 14, SFT on the newly built route before the entrance to Smolensk region was destroyed. The result was a serious delay of the train with fuel and lubricants.

The Revolutionary Movement Right of Power took responsibility for both actions (in Buryatia and Smolensk).

Bryansk region

Around 4 p.m. on March 14 on an oil pumping station the chief of patrol noticed a suspicious object, which turned out to be an IED with shocking elements – plastic and metal balls. The sappers disarmed it.

Rostov-on-Don

On March 16 a huge fire broke out in the building of FSB2 border guard department. The fire was preceded by the sound of an explosion. Governor Golubev claims that the cause of the incident was a short circuit in the electrical wiring inside the building: “The fire spread and caused explosions of containers with fuel and lubricants. The fire spread over an area of 800 square meters and caused the collapse of two walls.

The FSB claims that “the explosion in the garage of the FSB border guard directorate in Rostov-on-Don was caused by combustion of fuel and lubricants.

The 161.RU newspaper reported, citing a source in law enforcement agencies, that a shell exploded in the garage. According to the source, only after that the fire moved on to the fuel.

Eyewitnesses say they first heard a strong explosion, then several weaker ones and only then saw the fire.

According to TASS, citing emergency services, one person died and two others were injured. Hopefully, the victims are FSB personnel.

Saratov

On March 16, two relay cabinets on the Zorinsky – Trofimovsky-2 line were set on fire. Two local residents, 42 year old Alexey K. and 55 year old Samvel P. were detained on suspicion of arson.

St. Petersburg

An act of sabotage took place on the night of March 17 on tracks from St. Petersburg to Lomonosov in the territory of Gorelovo district. Guerillas set fire to a relay cabinet, 350 meters away from a petrol station. The burning relay cabinet was seen by an electric train driver on his way from St. Petersburg to Lomonosov. Unfortunately, the guerillas did not manage to open the cabinet, so it was burnt only on the outside and the equipment was not damaged.

Tver

It is reported that as of March 17, 3 Z-mobiles have been set on fire in the last two weeks. The cars burned to the ground.

Leipzig, Germany: Repression Can Be Expensive – Fire at Skoda

Posted on 2023/03/25 - 2023/03/25 by darknights

Last night, we went out and attacked several new cars of a Skoda dealer in East Leipzig with fire as a reaction to the house searches against antifascists last week. In doing so, we surrendered a total of 19 cars to the flames with simple means – 12 of them burned out completely, the rest were heavily damaged. Skoda proudly participates in equipping police units around the world.

On Wednesday, March 15 – of all days on the international day against police violence – the police stormed 5 apartments of antifascists in Jena and 3 in Leipzig with machine guns at the ready. In the same afternoon, a special task force attacked an entire house on the Eichendorffstraße in Connewitz and even shot(!) several doors open. As background, they named the attacks on neo-Nazis around an international fascist meeting in Budapest in February. Also in Karlsruhe, a house search took place, in which the pigs also proceeded with extreme brutality, background here were the protests against the AfD state party conference in Offenburg.

We were inspired by the call to react to every further wave of raids with plenty of damage to property as well as the practical proposals of the companions, who had already decided on an offensive reaction after the last wave of house searches in Leipzig, and we have already started – so that many more actions may follow!

We have chosen Skoda as a target, because they have been involved in equipping repressive organs all over the world for decades – be it in France, where the flics (cops) are currently trying to put down the social revolt raging there with full force, or in Italy, where the anarchist Alfredo Cospito is currently wrestling with death. With this action, we want to send him and all fighting companions flaming greetings of solidarity.

We are already looking forward to coming together with you militantly on Day-X in the Antifa Ost (Antifa East Germany) proceedings and to collectively oppose the current wave of repression. In case administration, cops or courts think about authoritarian measures against the demo like bans again, they should be clear: This time we are prepared, and it will be really expensive!

Freedom and good luck for all persecuted antifascists, whether in prison or on the run!
Alfredo Libero! For the revolt!

Rome, Italy: Claim of the incendiary attack on Poste Italiane in response to the internationalist solidarity call for the release of comrade Marcelo Villarroel

Posted on 2023/03/20 by darknights

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

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

  1. 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.

  2. Two Roma shot & killed by the Dias motorcycle cops.

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.
