Athens, Greece: Claim of responsibility for incendiary attacks on cops’ houses by Anarchist Cell ‘Lambros Fountas’
We claim responsibility for the incendiary attacks on the homes of the MAT unit (riot police) at 12 Athanaton Street in Sepolia, on February 9, where Andreas Poligenis resides, and at 4-6 Teas Street in Kaisariani on February 24, as well as at the home of a cop from the OPKE unit [Crime Prevention and Suppression Unit] at 18 Deligianni Street in Exarcheia on March 7. We dedicate these actions to the memory of our anarchist comrade and member of Revolutionary Struggle, Lambros Fountas, who fell fighting in an armed clash in Dafni on March 10, 2010. Lambros was a exemplary fighter who advanced the multifaceted struggle with social revolution as its goal. He participated in every aspect of anarchist action, from assemblies, marches, and clashes with the forces of repression to revolutionary armed struggle.
The reasons why we carried out the above attacks are self-evident: we are striking back at those who trample on our dreams. To those who rape people at police stations, to those who mercilessly beat up migrants, to those who protect crooks like the “illustrious” Minister of Health, Adonis Georgiadis, who has dismantled the National Health System, to those who crush strikes and marches, such as the one on 10/31 in honor of the anarchist, armed guerrilla Kyriakos Xymiteris. There must be no truce with those who suppress our lives.
We speak the language of social and class liberation, the language of political resistance as a counterpoint to the language of state terrorism, discipline, ruthless exploitation, moral decay, and the dead end of capitalist individualism. We defend direct action and the targeting of those who rule over us and shamelessly contribute to the shaping of this war-torn reality; from the mass media that manufacture fragmented consciousnesses steeped in alienation, bourgeois justice that blindly serves the interests of the economic and political elite, the sweatshops of wage slavery that reek of death, and even the scum of the Greek police with their boundless authoritarian arrogance.
In this current era of fragmentation within social movements, the weakening of the anarchist movement, and widespread apathy and defeatism, we must preserve our political principles intact, make direct confrontation with the enemy our foremost priority until fear changes sides, and externalize our vision for a world of equality, solidarity, freedom, and selflessness.

$hile: Interview with anarchist prisoner Francisco Solar
In this fourth interview, we engaged in a dialogue with our anarchist comrade Francisco Solar, acting as a bridge to spread his words and delve deeper into various topics and contexts of interest. His perspective and participation in grassroots projects are vitally important, as they break with the inaction that prison seeks to impose. Throughout this conversation, we address not only aspects related to his personal experience in prison, but also broader political reflections on the ongoing struggles and challenges facing anarchist circles.
1.- How are you doing now? Could you tell us a little about your experience in La Gonzalina prison? What differences do you see between the prison systems in Europe and Chile?
Almost a year ago, I left the maximum security wing where I had spent almost five years and moved to a high security wing with a normal regime, which basically means eight hours of yard time and the possibility of conjugal visits.
Based on the above, my situation is clearly more favorable, as I am not subject to the restrictions of a maximum security regime. However, sharing my daily life with fellow anarchists and subversives who were already in this unit makes prison life much more bearable. Escaping at times from the harmful authoritarian dynamics that exist among prisoners and trying to practice relationships that are contrary to these is a constant challenge and struggle that involves constant questioning. It is clear that we are not an island within this unit; we deal with contradictions and obviously sometimes reproduce behaviors that we say we reject. However, our dynamics, those of the anarchist and subversive prisoners, are different from those of the rest of the prisoners. Our relationships are not based on the stark authoritarianism of the other prisoners, and that is evident.
My daily routine consists of playing sports in the yard, talking and walking with my compañeros, and reading. As I have pointed out in other writings, it is important to have a daily routine, which, at least in my case, allows me to maintain a certain mental clarity and avoid falling into prison despair.
The differences between the Chilean prison system and that of Spain lie mainly in control. The Spanish prison system has managed to discipline life inside prisons through constant and prolonged adjustments to its control strategies. Through the FIES (Ficheros de Internos de Especial Seguimiento, Special Investigation and Security Unit) and dispersion, the Prison Service has pacified Spanish prisons, even managing to turn prisoners into their own jailers, as can be seen in the increasingly numerous “respect modules.”
Although the Chilean prison system is moving towards exercising control in the “Spanish” (or European) manner, the truth is that it is still a long way from achieving this. The control mechanisms are much more precarious and ineffective, which leads, among other things, to the establishment of certain “rules” imposed by the prisoners themselves within prison life. These rules are based on extreme authoritarianism that produces and reproduces relationships of outright slavery among the prisoners themselves. If solidarity was once present in these dynamics, today such relationships have been virtually relegated to make way for ostentation and the aforementioned authoritarianism that makes prison life a hostile environment.

$hile: Subversive compañero Tomás González escapes from the ex penitentiary
On February 25, 2026, former subversive prisoner Tomás González, along with another prisoner, escaped from the ex penitentiary dressed as a prison guard.
Comrade Tomás was sentenced to more than 21 years in prison (16 years for shooting at police officers to avoid arrest in May 2022) and 5 years (pending for carrying a Molotov cocktail) for the murder of police officer José Luis Rodríguez. Comrade Tomás was sentenced to more than 21 years in prison (16 years for shooting at police officers to avoid arrest in May 2022) and 5 years (pending for carrying a Molotov cocktail).
In the face of the repressive measures that are beginning to be imposed inside and outside, the call is not to provide any information useful to the repression. No collaboration is acceptable! No photos of our comrade, no information about his surroundings or connections given to the police!
Long escape and life to the comrades on the run and in hiding. All our strength and solidarity to those who still resist in prison.
“I cherish every moment in which I can,
together with my comrades, learn from the experiences that different generations have
passed down since ancient times, based on solidarity and humility.
Nothing is over, because the task continues to contribute in a concrete way.
Those who live fighting walk, opening paths wherever and however they can.
Autonomous and illegal, that is our horizon.”

Chile: Some repercussions following the escape of subversive prisoner Tomas González from the ex Penitentiary
At noon on February 25, 2026, former subversive prisoner Tomás González and another inmate managed to escape from the former penitentiary dressed as prison guards. Tomás was serving a 21-year prison sentence for throwing Molotov cocktails and resisting arrest with gunfire.
Once the news broke and a media storm erupted, the prison service decided to remove the Regional Director and the senior staff of the former penitentiary: the Warden, the Chief of Operations, and the Chief of Internal Affairs. Loud statements from ministers and members of the government were broadcast on television during the first few days, along with a photograph of the fugitive.
The investigation was carried out by the Western District Attorney’s Office and the Investigative Police, who on March 2 conducted a series of raids in Maipú, La Granja, and the Pablo Vergara Toledo Community Space in Villa Francia.

325 #13: De vuelta a lo básico (Edición en español de la revista insurreccional 325)
DESCARGA LA EDICIÓN EN ESPAÑOL DE 325 #13 “De vuelta a lo básico”: https://archive.org/details/325-13-espanol + La portada
Hemos traducido el último número de la revista 325, un interesante y necesario proyecto insurreccional de contrainformación y análisis antiautoritario que merece seguir siendo difundido y discutido en más de un idioma y territorio. Alentamos su impresión, circulación y el debate que pueda generar sobre el curso actual de la realidad. La policía neerlandesa no pudo ponerle un fin definitivo en noviembre de 2020 a la revista 325, aún allanando los servidores noestate.net -que sostuvieron por años el sitio web- y de haber encarcelado por cuatro años a uno de sus colaboradores (el anarquista Toby Shone), el proyecto volvió hace algunos meses con la propuesta «De vuelta a lo básico», escribiendo una declaración de intenciones sobre la continuidad y urgencia de profundizar y revitalizar el análisis contra la maquinaria tecnológica.
Para lxs anarquistas y todxs aquellxs que se rehúsan a vivir en un mundo de relaciones algorítmicas y guerras automatizadas, de sensibilidades digitalizadas y horrores en nombre de la ciencia y el progreso, 325 reúne diversos materiales para comprender los elementos, capacidades y significados del entramado tecnológico e ideológico en sus múltiples dimensiones cognitivas y represivas (una lucha contra la singularidad de la IA, la totalización de la vigilancia, el control sobre la información, la apertura a nuevas lógicas de guerras… etc), una herramienta analítica considerada un peligro para el Estado y una plataforma que que pretende ser más información sediciosa: en sus páginas se busca comunicación, debate, redes que puedan transcender fronteras frente a un enemigo común que se perfecciona hacia el abismo del tecnomundo.
Alentamos su propagación,
saludxs compañerxs!

Minera Aclara: Rare Earths, Geopolitics and Extraction in Abya Yala (Chile, Brazil)
Minera Aclara is a project promoted by the company REE Uno SpA, now known as Aclara Resources, which aims to extract rare earths from two sites, one in the hills of Penco, territory occupied by the Chilean state, and the other in Goiás, Brazilian territory. Rare earths are a set of 17 minerals mainly used for weapons and the technology industry (batteries, luxury electric cars, wind turbines, etc.), everything that is sold today as green technologies. These technologies, which are not for mass use but rather for industry and the military and economic elites, are sustained by the extraction of raw materials from Abya Yala region and other territories that have historically faced colonization by world powers. Currently, Penco and Goiás are territories that are in the global spotlight of extractivism, representing a strategic point in the war for control of the production of these substances.
The project to be installed in Penco consists of three rare earth extraction zones, consisting of open-pit mines with a diameter of approximately 45 hectares, equivalent to 45 soccer fields, and a depth of between 40 and 60 meters, which is where the concentrations of these minerals are found. On the other hand, the module that they intend to install in Goiás comprises an expandable area of 1,500 hectares.
What do we know about rare earth mining?
For years, China has controlled rare earth mining, generating more than 95% of the world’s production of this mineral alloy. A terrible example of the consequences of this industry was what happened in Baotou, the world’s largest supplier of rare earths, where a former pasture was turned into a toxic lake of waste from the extraction process, “composed of a cocktail of acids, heavy metals, carcinogens, and radioactive material used to process the 17 most sought-after minerals in the world.”[1]
But this monopoly is being threatened by other capitalist powers: the US and Canada, which intend to compete with China for control of rare earth extraction. This is where the territories of Abya Yala, from the colonialist perspective of these two countries, appear as key suppliers for carrying out this plan, just as Boutu was for China. Currently, the company Minera Aclara presents itself to the outside world as a “sustainable” alternative to the Chinese extractive market and aims to compete against Chinese control through the extraction of rare earths in Goiás, Brazil, and Penco, Chile.

$hile: After more than three months, the trial against brothers Lucas and Aldo Hernandez comes to an end
From: La Zarzamora
On Monday, November 3rd, the trial against Aldo and Lucas Hernandez came to an end, with both being sentenced to 21 and 12 years in prison, respectively, after more than three months of hearings, in which the authorities attempted to use all their power to achieve an exemplary punishment for both brothers.
On July 21st of this year, amid protests and multiple solidarity actions, the lengthy trial against Aldo and Lucas Hernandez began at the Center for (In)Justice in Santiago. The prosecution, made up of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Chilean Gendarmerie, initially demanded intolerably excessive sentences, ranging from 20 years in prison for Lucas to 90 years in prison for Aldo Hernandez.
Subsequently, after the verdict was read on October 3, the prosecutors requested a sentence of 32 years and 1,100 days for Aldo and a sentence of 18 years and 800 days for Lucas, while Aldo’s defense requested a sentence of 26 years and Lucas’s defense requested a sentence of 12 years. Finally, on November 3, Aldo was sentenced to 21 years and Lucas to 12 years.
The sentences, set out in a document of more than 400 pages, referred to three incidents: 1) the attack on the General Directorate of the Gendarmerie in December 2021; 2) the raid on a residence in Loncura; and 3) the raid on a residence in La Victoria.
Aldo Hernandez was found guilty of the attack on the Gendarmerie Headquarters but acquitted of the crimes of minor injuries to prison guards and the crime of receiving stolen goods. He was also found guilty in relation to the items found in the raid on Loncura ( incident 2) but was acquitted of all the crimes he was charged with in relation to the raid on the home in La Victoria ( incident 3). Lucas, for his part, was convicted of most of the crimes related to the residence in the La Victoria neighborhood, but was acquitted of the crimes of manufacturing weapons and manufacturing explosive devices.

Chile: Update on the final week of the trial against Aldo and Lucas Hernández
The eleventh and final week of the trial against our comrades Aldo and Lucas came to an end. Following the closing arguments by the prosecution and the defense teams for both comrades, which were in response to the statements made by both sides in order to present their own theories, the prosecution was emphatic in pointing out the guilt of both defendants in the acts with which they were charged. Aldo was charged with crime No. 1, which corresponded to the attack on the National Gendarmerie Directorate, as well as crime No. 2, which was after the raids, for which he was charged with the items found in Loncura, Quintero, and crime No. 3, which involved Lucas and the items found at the La Victoria neighborhood residence, as noted in the previous update.
On October 3, the judges began the verdict hearing, in which Aldo was convicted of the attack, but acquitted of the crimes of 16 less serious injuries to gendarmerie officials and the crime of receiving stolen goods. Regarding incident No. 2, he was convicted of the crimes charged at the residence in Loncura, and regarding incident No. 3, he was acquitted of all crimes at the residence in La Victoria.
Lucas was convicted of the vast majority of the crimes at the residence in La Población La Victoria, except for the crimes of manufacturing weapons and manufacturing explosive devices, of which he was acquitted.
After the verdict, the sentencing phase began, which concluded with the plaintiffs requesting a sentence of 32 years and 1,100 days for Aldo and 18 years and 800 days for Lucas. On the defense side, they requested a sentence of 26 years for Aldo and 12 years for Lucas. The final outcome and length of the sentences will be determined by the judges on the day the sentence is read. At the same hearing, the date for the reading was set for Monday, November 3 of this year.
