Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for burning of cop motorbike

Posted on 2022/01/19 by darknights

Our comrade Alexis, December belongs to you.

That’s why we, like rabid wolves, at dawn on December 8th, in Kefalas Street in Poligono, Athens, destroyed the motorbike of a well-known family of cops, giving a message to all state servants that we know what time they finish their service and where they are coming home from.

For Vassilis Magos, Nikos Sampanis, Alexis Grigoropoulos.

The flag looks nice burnt!

Paris, France: Welcome to Paris… yuppie scum!

Posted on 2022/01/11 by darknights

29 December 2021

We were strolling through the dark and damp streets on Christmas Eve, discussing consumerism, social classes, injustices.

We were saying that the fundamental difference in this world, the one that marks all our lives, is the position of each one on the scale of wealth and power (they often go together). There are rich people and there are poor people. Then there are also a lot of other identity characteristics that are more or less artificial, more or less voluntarily chosen, more or less accepted, more or less marginalised or condemned. But basically there are always the rich at the top and the poor at the bottom. And most often the poor accept this state of affairs as fair and natural.

In the damp, dark alleys of the Butte aux Cailles, one thought that cities too, since time immemorial, have been shaped by power and the power of money. Paris perhaps even more than other cities. This neighbourhood reminds us of the last days of resistance of the Communards, their attempt to live utopia before being crushed by the force of the State.

Our rage could have ended there, in words. In fact, this is often the case. We said to ourselves that words don’t change anything.

And then we saw this luxury car parked there. A foreigner’s licence plate, perhaps a group of rich tourists enjoying the charm of Paris for the holidays. This charm built on the blood of those who were crushed. Those whose ideas have never been defeated.

How much does a Maserati S04 cost? This flaunting of wealth and success in this society? Probably not far off the price of those rabbit cages we were taught to call home. But as we left and the flames caught under the hood we thought that just this once a bourgeois would have their celebrations spoilt.

Let’s make this city hell for the rich!

Wuppertal, Germany: Sodexo transporter immobilized

Posted on 2022/01/11 by darknights

“It is companies like Spie, WISAG, Massak, Sodexo […] that keep state rule alive through their pandering.”

In the darkness of 03.01. we slashed the tires of a Sodexo company car in Espenstraße in Wuppertal and dumped an oily liquid into the air vents.

Sodexo is one of the profiteers of the prison industry.

Since the privatization of the British justice system, the French company has been running five prisons in Great Britain with over 5000 inmates under its own responsibility. In other countries, such as France and Chile, services are provided by Sodexo in sections of various prisons. Sodexo supplies prisons with completely overpriced food and keeps the supply as low as possible, so that prisoners have no choice but to spend their little money for the profit of this company.

Already at the beginning of 2015, a letter of confession after an action against Sodexo in Berlin stated:
“On the other hand, Sodexo is blacklisted in Belgium for its involvement in deportation prisons and provides services to deportation camps in Germany. The company belongs to the Zehnacker Group, which presents itself as follows:

“As a partner of armed forces, we accompany them to their areas of operation at home and abroad. Our mission is to provide a better quality of life for both the troops and their leadership. Under the supervision of the Ministry of Justice, Sodexo designs and provides solutions that contribute to smooth operations in correctional facilities. In all our activities, we respect our values and our ethical principles. Our work in this area is further evidence of our strong commitment to society.” [https://chronik.blackblogs.org/?p=572] Continue reading “Wuppertal, Germany: Sodexo transporter immobilized” →

Paris, France : Solidarity with Francisco!

Posted on 2022/01/08 by darknights

Prison hovers permanently like a dark cloud over the lives of those who do not want to resign themselves to this world of authority and exploitation. It crushes the lives of so many people whom the State considers useless or dangerous.

We carry in our hearts the names, words and deeds of our imprisoned comrades around the world.

Among them is Franscisco Solar, a Chilean anarchist who recently took responsibility with strength and dignity for the explosive devices that shattered the illusion of security so dear to the cops, the politicians and the rich. So that fear finally changes sides.

Despite the distance and the walls, we wanted to send him a message of solidarity.

And so in the night of 24 to 25 December we set fire to a vehicle of prison builders Eiffage, and another with a diplomatic plate, in rue Courat in Paris.

Courage comrade ! The anarchists don’t forget you!
A thought also to Toby, comrade imprisoned in England.
Fire to the prisons, to the companies that build them and the world that needs them.

Solidarity means attack.

A few anarchists

Bremen, Germany: The enemies of freedom are ours! Offices of the arms company OHB System AG in flames

Posted on 2022/01/08 by darknights

We usher in the new year with restless nights for Marco R. Fuchs and his billion-dollar space and defense company Orbitale Hochtechnologie Bremen (OHB System AG). With hammers, we smashed several windows of a building of OHB and then set the offices on fire.

The damage to the company’s image is certain. Happy new fear!

OHB System AG is considered a respected space and high technology company. Since the 1950s, OHB has mainly been building satellite-based systems used for military interests. Due to direct orders from the German Armed Forces, OHB can no longer even attempt the fig leaf of dual-use, i.e. using its satellites for both civilian and military purposes. OHB is an armaments group.

Defense groups are crisis winners: Despite the pandemic, OHB is not only visibly expanding by means of new buildings in the Bremen Technology Park, but is also tapping into the US market.

Ottawa, Canada: RBC Branch Redecorated in Solidarity with Wet’suwet’en

Posted on 2022/01/08 by darknights

Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info

Fire extinguisher full of white paint was used on the facade of a RBC branch located in Ottawa during the holiday week.

The action was meant as an answer to the calls to action from the Gidimt’en clan who retook possession of “Coyote Camp” with their allies. We stand in solidarity with the Wetʼsuwetʼen nation and against KKKanada’s genocidal project.

Fuck CGL, Fuck the RCMP, fuck RBC, Shut down KKKanada and get the fuck out of the Yintah!

Thessaloniki, Greece: Arson of the construction Praxis (Πράξις) that demolished the occupation of Biologica by Cores of Immediate Action (Πυρήνες Αμεσης Δράσης)

Posted on 2022/01/08 - 2022/01/08 by darknights

On the morning of New Year’s Eve, numerous repressive forces surround the facilities of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and begin the operation to evacuate the occupation of the Biologica. They invade the hangout(at Biologica) and after the end of the research, they start the demolition works of the area. The renovation project, which concerns the “Investment in education, the acquisition of skills and lifelong learning” and amounts to a cost of 1,320,600 euros, concerns the creation of a sterile waiting area.These are the real needs of academic education: sterile spaces in a landscape deliberately degraded, to create the empty man of tomorrow, a willing servant and ruler in the appeals and interests of capitalist reconstruction.

The repressive gang war of Rector Papaioannou against the squats that belong to the(ΑΠΘ)Aristotle University of Thessaloniki continues. After the evacuation of the Terra Incognita squat in the summer of 2020, the evacuation of the squat on Nikis Street in the past (buildings that remain sealed even today), the uniformed academy proceeds to evacuate and demolish a space inside the university campus that over 3 decades captured what freedom in knowledge, self-education, access without profit and price means.The academic community officially opens its arms to militarism and repression, with the rubbish of the rectory sending its excited thanks personally to Mitsotakis himself. This is the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki:a matrix of collaborators of repression in which the officials of the uniformed Republic are hatched. Sludge like Papaioannou who does not care where he puts his signature and Margaritis who enacts laws to send to cement anyone who actually challenges the state monarchy.

In hostilities we will have the last word…

The government decides to proceed with the surprise of New Year’s Eve and to lay the veil of repression claiming the war fiesta. A few hours later, we go on the counterattack.We take responsibility for the arson attack on the building of the construction company Praxis, at 49 Kromnis Street in Kalamaria shortly before the change of the Year.Praxis is the contracting company that undertook the demolition work of the occupation. We will strike each one individually that accompanies the repression against the liberated territories and the world of struggle.

Our attack is the first reflexive action of practical solidarity in the world of struggle that defends to the end the squatters and the self-managed areas of struggle, solidarity and attack. A message of strength, support and complicity with each comrade and comrade individually who insists on denial, on questioning, on war. You will find us by your side in every moment of conflict, in every roadblock because we are not finished.We are preparing a new cycle of attacks in the war of attrition, organizing new Cores of Immediate Action. And in this war we call on every struggling initiative to take action, sharpening the confrontation quantitatively, qualitatively and operationally.

We respond to war with war.

Milan, Italy: Bomb against Unicredit

Posted on 2022/01/08 by darknights

The clamour of revolt shattered the silence of a freezing winter night. Anarchist violence was unleashed against Unicredit, exploding in the night against one of its Milan branches in the neighbourhood of Barona. An explosive device placed on the threshold of the institute destroyed the entrance and adjacent cash machines.

The bank giant, chaired by ex-minister of the economy Padoan, is the second most important bank in Italy and can be found in eighteen countries. It has been financing exports of arms and military systems for years, and among its shareholders is Black Rock, a world leader in investment funds. In a world where banks have the power to determine market trends and people’s lives, direct attack on these structures is one of the best weapons of struggle.

Revolutionary solidarity and complicity with anarchist prisoners in the world, proud of their path of struggle.

Nothing is over.

No surrender.

Genoa, Italy – Claim for an incendiary attack on a high voltage pylon

Posted on 2022/01/08 - 2022/01/08 by darknights
In the night of christmas eve, tired of the artificial panorama of a city ready to celebrate on the capitalist sleigh, we decided to contribute to the illuminations by lighting up a Terna high voltage pylon with cans of petrol. Our little nocturnal present succeeded, illuminating the grey sky with dazzling flashes and some dull thuds.

As for today we don’t know how much actual damage was caused, but we do know that Terna might have to add our christmas pylon to its endless list of maintenance, improvements and adjustments which it is set to do over almost 75,000 km of Italian network.

Obviously the hope was, remains and will remain that of definitively turning off the system of energy supply, the beating heart of this sick world of consumerism and opulence, devastation, wars and death.

Terna is to be included in the list of energy supply giants already mentioned in our first communique (ENI and Ansaldo nucleare) that recount the usual fairy tale of clean energy and the ecological turning, boasting about “action for the climate” through plans of resilience, research, development and innovation.

Santiago, Chile: Explosive attack against the National Directorate of Gendarmerie + Claim of “The Black Vengeance”

Posted on 2021/12/29 - 2025/08/18 by darknights

During the early morning of Monday, December 27, 2021, a loud bang shakes the center of the capital. An explosive device detonates against a window of the National Directorate of Gendarmerie, located on Rosas Street at the height of Teatinos.

GOPE personnel quickly arrived at the scene, and the South Prosecutor’s Office, which handles this type of crime, was present, entrusting the OS-9 and Labocar personnel with the investigation. According to the press, it was the Prosecutor’s Office itself which indicated the prohibition to inform and give more information. No pamphlets were found at the site.

Via email, the action is claimed by “La Negra Venganza”, which according to the text would be the same group that acted against a police station in 2020. The text details the use of industrial explosives, as well as ammunition in the explosive device, making an open call to expand this type of practice, to show solidarity with the prisoners and to expand the use of their name, and finally to greet other action groups.

***

Campaign of attack and revenge against the executioners. Act II

Explosive attack to the National Directorate of Gendarmerie of Chile.


“In a highly self-critical manner, the solidarity actions that are undertaken are generally reactive. There are no actions that are rather offensive… We all know where the guys are, they are walking around in their uniforms, and they do it with total impunity. And we know that inside they are harassing the brothers and sisters, they are making them feel bad, they are humiliating them…”

Mauricio Morales

One year after our first action, as the group that we are, and after much study, tensions, proposals and reflections, we are back. We are back, we continue with the campaign we started some time ago.

We will go in the early morning of December 27, 2021 a few minutes before the clock strikes 3:00 a.m. (The time and day are always proposed, so that the attack in its entirety reaches our targets-enemies) To the National Directorate of Gendarmerie of Chile. Located in Rosas street, downtown Santiago. Continue reading “Santiago, Chile: Explosive attack against the National Directorate of Gendarmerie + Claim of “The Black Vengeance”” →
