Since the 25th, the flames of rebellion have scorched the oppressive forces in Indonesia, igniting a fierce uprising against a regime that thrives on violence and subjugation. This is no fleeting moment; it is a throbbing heartbeat of resistance from those long denied their rights. The loss of ten lives in this struggle only deepens our resolve to confront the state and its henchmen.
As the government unleashes military brutality, kidnaps activists, and engages in sinister cyber warfare, we are reminded: “Insurrection is the most logical weapon of the masses.” It is time to act- our fury must unite as a force beyond borders!
Comrades across the globe, rise! Attack Indonesian interests wherever they are found. Disrupt the machinery of oppression with every act of defiance.
Join the clash, amplify the voices of the oppressed, and make it clear: our resistance knows no bounds.
Together, we can dismantle the techno-industrial civilisation!
Following the end of the event “Revolutionary memory and perspective of the struggle” in Mesologgiou street, a crowd of comrades descended to Kolettis and Themistokleous streets to defend the liberation of the building. The following is the self-introductory communique of the occupation:
The silence of the metropolis weighs like a stone on our shoulders. The streets are filled with worn-out stares, bodies crawling out of habit, out of fear, out of submission. The world moves along predetermined paths, without a second thought, tempering its dreams. Everything is programmed to work exactly as they want: work, consumption, obedience. Yet, always, beneath the surface, something is boiling. History is not written by the obedient. A few choose to bear the burden of disobedience. To crack the concrete of normality. To confront the invisible hand of power that chokes every aspect of our lives. Refusing to submit is not a mere stance. It is a call to question, to overturn, to take back everything that belongs to us. We are comrades, anarchists who derive from different political and ideological backgrounds, but we have found ourselves in the very same fires of struggle. It is there, where our common struggles and collective experiences united us, that we recognized the vital need for the creation of a space for meeting, political maturation1, exchange of views and organizational empowerment. At a time when isolation is imposed and communities of struggle are being dismantled by repression, the formation of such spaces is not only necessary – it is crucial. The repressive blows of recent years have not come by accident. The authorities are attempting to eliminate any focus of resistance, to crush any form of self-organisation and to extinguish the flame of contestation. Great achievements have been lost, the movement has been put on the defensive, the recession is now on the horizon. But we know that history is written by those who do not fall back, by those who are not afraid to confront reality. To remain on the defensive is to accept defeat. And that is not going to happen. The time is now to turn words into action, to move from defense to attack. So let’s make it clear that the enemy will not get rid of us so easily. We must define our own field of struggle, reclaim our space and time. To liberate territories from domination, to create a vibrant centre of resistance, a radical cell for mobilisation2 both in theory and action. We perceive the occupation as an integral part of the movement and the movement as an organic element of the occupation. The existence of territories of struggle is not just a practical question, but a deeply political one. Squats are not just places to hang out, they are not just places of hospitality. They are strongholds of resistance, laboratories of radical practices, cracks in the normality they try to impose on us. And this is a non-negotiable reality. Every neighbourhood, every street, every square is not a neutral ground. It is a vibrant map of oppositions, conflicts and claims. Cities are built on the basis of discipline, policing and the sterilization of public space. Squares are filled with surveillance cameras, walls are painted grey, buildings become inaccessible bastions for those who cannot afford to pay the price of existence in a world where everything has a tag price. Dominance is implementing a strategic plan of universal control of the metropolises, crushing any source of resistance. Armed with black propaganda and ideological warfare, it attempts to shape consciousness, while the deliberate degradation of neighbourhoods through the spread of organised crime and the violent expulsion of the local population is paving the way for its complete absorption by capital.

In the face of raids, brutal beatings and unjustified transfers, Mapuche Political Prisoners in the Temuco prison charge that these events are part of a broader strategy that seeks to dismantle the existing community modules in Chilean prisons.
“PUBLIC STATEMENT BY MAPUCHE POLITICAL PRISONERS, CCP TEMUCO COMMUNITY MODULE The Mapuche political prisoners held in the Temuco prison salute our traditional authorities, Pu Lonko, Pu Werken and Pu Machi, as well as the communities in resistance, and declare the following: On Monday, March 31, at approximately 10:30 a.m., we were violently raided in the first instance by officials of this penal facility, who were later reinforced by personnel of the U.S.E.P. As a result of this act, innumerable damages were caused, such as the destruction of furniture, the theft of sporting goods, the arbitrary and excessive use of tear gas, and various physical and verbal aggressions (verbatim words of Lieutenant Martínez and Sergeant Ramírez: “Indios Culiaos, Indios Perkines”). The most affected peñi was Rodrigo Cáseres Salamanca, who underwent surgery on his right arm less than six months ago and is still in the process of rehabilitation. However, this was not an impediment for the Gendarmerie officials, who continued with the beating without any consideration. Despite their state of health, the Peñi Rodrigo Cáseres Salamanca, Patricio Queipul and Anthu Llanca were transferred to three different prisons: Angol, Valdivia and Concepción. Where they were sent to maximum security modules, without the right to TV or radio, with a regime of 22 hours of solitary confinement, and 2 hours of courtyard. It should be noted that the latter two were recently acquitted of a set-up orchestrated by the Gendarmerie of the Angol prison. We see with this as a first conclusion that the orchestrators of the raid were: the recently transferred Lieutenant Hernández from the concessioned prison of Concepción, who on Monday, March 31, occupied the position of deputy warden, the operational chief of the OSI Mijail Morales, the non-commissioned officer Martínez and Sergeant Ramírez, directed and protected by Néstor Flores, regional director of the gendarmerie. It is evident that what happened is part of a provocative maneuver directed against the Mapuche political prisoners, and we know that this is only one piece of a broader strategy that seeks to dismantle the existing modules of community members in the Chilean prisons located in our Wallmapu. This intention is clearly demonstrated by the modifications in the internal regime that will be implemented arbitrarily, without prior notice and under the direction of Lieutenant Hernández. Added to this is the daily harassment to which we are subjected, which is manifested through sanctions that are not officially recorded, which rather respond to racist attributions on the part of Gendarmerie officials. This strategy is also supported by the entire political class, which acts at the service of business interests, the gendarmerie is nothing more than a puppet institution of political interests and the business community. We demand that our status as Mapuche political prisoners be respected, as well as our culture, social practices and worldview. Ratified by ILO Convention 169. From the political prisoners module of the Temuco prison, we call for solidarity with the peñi transferred to the prisons of Angol, Valdivia and Concepción. In addition, we urge to be alert to the repressive and offensive maneuvers directed against the Mapuche political prisoners modules and the eventual mobilizations that may arise. Immediate transfers of Rodrigo Caseres Salamanca, Patricio Queipul Millanao and Anthu Llanca Quidel to the CCP Temuko community module. Freedom for All Mapuche Political Prisoners. For unity in the Weichan Presos Políticos Mapuche CCP Temuko.»

We again claim the action of attacking a police post, on December 17, 2024 in the area of Tasikmalaya, West Java.
We are a small revolutionary cell formed from the consciousness of resistance, a fusion of collectives and free individuals! There will be more attacks to destroy the state and its instruments!
This communiqué is addressed to Nikos Romanos, Alfredo Cospito and all imprisoned FAI/IRF members around the world. You are not alone!
Note: english translation is only a part of the whole communique
“A few days ago, precisely on November 22nd. I personally, who am not affiliated with any affinities, would like to give a communique.
That there was a burning of a building at one of the leading campuses on the south coast of East Java. I want to claim that the action was my doing.
What I did was purely solidarity with distant friends who have never met face to face. Especially to Nikos Romanos, Der Enzig and all the other anarchist prisoners. This is total revenge on the ward that gave birth to the disaster, namely the campus. I am isolated and not caught.
The nonsense of academics and activists does not end our suffering.
The campus and all its cronies did not provide the correct results of the crime scene investigation other than electrical short circuits and cigarette butts. But as an individualist I claim it is my action. With a little spark everything can burn.”

Beberapa hari lalu, tepatnya pada tgl 22 November. Saya secara pribadi yang tak tergabung dengan affinitas mana pun, ingin memberikan komunike.
Bahwa terdapat pembakaran gedung di salah satu kampus terkemuka di pesisir selatan JATIM. Saya ingin mengklaim bahwa aksi tersebut merupakan ulah saya.
Kegetiran terhadap dunia Yang semakin carut marut dan mengalami distopia total. Saya sadar bahwa tempat ini merupakan bangsal yang melahirkan monster penghancur apa pun yang ada di muka bumi ini. Selain kekesalan. Apa yang saya lakukan adalah murni solidaritas pada kawan jauh yang tak pernah saling tatap muka secara langsungnya. Terkhusus kepada Nikos Romanos, Der Enzig dan semua tahanan anarkis lainnya. Ini adalah pembalasan total kepada bangsal yang melahirkan bencana yaitu kampus.
Saya terisolir dan tak terjaring.
Omong kosong akademis dan para aktivis tak membuat kita selesai pada penderitaan ini.
Pihak kampus dan segala kroninya tak memberikan hasil olah TKP yang benar selain konsleting listrik dan puntung rokok. Tapi saya sebagai seorang individualis saya mengklaim itu adalah aksi saya. Dengan sedikit percikan api semua bisa terbakar.
Sentence from the trial for the clashes and resistance to the eviction of the Corvaccio Squat and the Rosa Nera on November 18, 2014 in Milan
On Tuesday, Nov. 18, 2014, the anarchist occupations Corvaccio Squat and Rosa Nera – Occupied Anarchist Space, located on Via Ravenna in Milan’s Corvetto neighborhood, were being evicted with a huge number of trucks, cops, DIGOS, helicopters, and the like.
On July 3, 2023, the trial process for those resisting the eviction and the ensuing day of struggle that lasted well into the evening came to an end, with sentences of up to eight months.
Support the occupations, against all evictions: solidarity and resistance!
To put the facts in context, below is a text published in November 2014:
Corvaccio resists, Corvetto ignites Communiqué for the evictions of the Corvaccio squat and the Rosa Nera anarchist space
An abnormal awakening for Corvetto on Tuesday, November 18: in Via Ravenna instead of cappuccino and brioche, breakfast with tear gas and barricades.
It is 7 a.m. when the neighborhood, already alert and on the alert for the much heralded “eviction emergency,” notices the approach of a large number of pickup trucks. They head for Ravenna Street and close with vehicles and men two entire blocks with the clear intention of evicting Corvaccio and Rosa Nera. The former is an occupied house in which little less than a dozen rebels have lived for more than two years, while the latter an an anarchist space that for almost eight months has been hosting concerts and aperitifs in support of the prisoners, meetings, screenings and assemblies on various issues of struggle, and where at low speed a drumming class, a screen-printing workshop, a gymnasium and a documentation center are also coming to life.
Time that has been extended by the prosecutor until today, almost 7 months, due to the seriousness of the crime and the penalty that this deserves according to the penal code, which is around 15 to 20 years.
In these long months, we have gone through various emotions and feelings. Confronting the reality of every prisoner, facing the blow that prison generates in your habits and close circle. Keeping indeclinably the conviction and courage that led us to these cages. Living in our own flesh what millions of animals around the world live. A forced and arbitrary captivity. Violence and aggression. Based on the decision of a judge. In their case; the judge is the accepted human logic that sees them as things or inferior.
We do not regret our ideas and the steps that lead us to our becoming.
There is no wall, gendarme or bar, that makes us stop sustaining that animal liberation is a fundamental pillar of any anarchic or libertarian conception. And that in that glow, the active hands of those who embrace the idea against authority are primordial.
Yesterday, today and tomorrow. We are still at war!
For the fall of this and any society! Social-anti-social war!
Animal liberation! Total liberation! Under any consequence and affected.
Tony furry brother of late presente!!!
With these words that carry the ballast of the innocuous, and the impotence of not being able to embrace you with exorbitant roars and hypnotic, nameless, denying flames, which cross continents and borders.
We sit down to write from our cages with a deep sense of pain, rage and fraternal admiration.
The machinery of global domination considers you so dangerous and unyielding that they have made it a priority to slice away the most threatening portion of your existence. Your zest for life, your pride, joy and lucidity. Because they fear. Because you managed to represent an indomitable threat that was never diluted in words.
From the state captivity of Santiago, Chile. We shout with the brutality of a thousand floods!
Down with the regime of torture and annihilation 41 bis!!!! 98 days of hunger strike!!!
We shout from continent to continent: Resist brother, here on the other side of this pestilent world you have warriors attentive to your steps.
We never waited for the conciliatory venia with the enemy for the resolution of our battles and necessities. And we will not do so now.
May the gestures of rampant audacity make the ground vibrate and the streets of the entire globe dominated by the machinery of subjugation burn with fire!
Until we get Alfredo out of this adverse situation, and overthrow that hideous psychopathic regime called 41bis.
ALFREDO COSPITO TO THE STREET!!!
TOGETHER WITH ALL THE PRISONERS OF THE SOCIAL-ANTISOCIAL WAR ALL OVER THE PLANET.
FIRE TO ALL THE PRISONS FOR HUMANS AND NON-HUMANS. WITH THEIR JAILERS INSIDE.
VEGAN STRAIGHT EDGE PRISONERS, SUSARON CASE.
-C.D.P. SANTIAGO 1 PRISON.
-SAN MIGUEL WOMEN’S PRISON.
Public communiqué of anarchist, subversive anti-authoritarian, nihilist anti-speciesist and anarcho-feminist affinities in the face of the current situation of comrade Alfredo Cospito in the Italian fascist prisons almost 90 days after the beginning of his hunger strike.
As comrades who support the anarchic struggle against prisons, prison society and the system of domination, we express through these words our unwavering support for comrade Alfredo Cospito, kidnapped by the Italian state in the prison of Bancali, Sassari, Sardinia; a center of extermination in which the nefarious regime of 41 bis has been applied to him, with the aim of destroying him as a subject and preventing him from maintaining any kind of contact with all his comrades inside and outside of the prisons.
Alfredo has been on hunger strike for almost 90 days demanding the end of the application of the damned regime, which extorts our comrades through the torture of isolation to induce them to give information or die, only in these two situations 41 bis ceases to be applied.
As like-minded comrades we repudiate the torture applied to Alfredo and other comrades, we know that they fear us because of our unrestricted commitment to end the system of domination, a commitment that does not end with torture, nor with prison, nor with death itself, and for this reason today Alfredo is risking his life firmly and without hesitation.
Five years later, we publish – taken from the website anarhija.info (DN: English translation from Insurrection News) – the claim text of the explosive attack against the Carabinieri barracks in the San Giovanni district of Rome. Consistent with the need for support for the practices of attack and international revolutionary solidarity, we consider it equally important and necessary to find, and therefore disseminate, the documents and claim texts.
* * *
Claim of the explosive attack against the carabinieri barracks in the San Giovanni neighbourhood by the Santiago Maldonado Cell / FAI-FRI (Rome, 7 December 2017)
In times of social peace and compliance there is no better reply than action. A stimulus, a continuity and a jolt to wake up those who sleep.
Acting on one’s own initiative breaks the compliance and inaction and ignites those whose blood boils.
The anarchic praxis of attack must be the basic stimulus of anarchy, otherwise it is a walking dead. Action is necessary to make us alive in the ways we consider opportune, removed from every program, hierarchical and vertical structure. Many revolutionary practices are part of an anarchism in its bowels.
We have decided to take our lives into our own hands by breaking the oppressive peace that surrounds us.
On the night of the 6th to the 7th of December we placed a steel thermos containing 1.6kg of explosives outside the carabinieri barracks in the San Giovanni district in Rome.

From the territory occupied by the Chilean colonialist state and from different territories of Abya Yala we tell you that the struggle of our comrade is also ours and that the consequences of a bad end to it will be seen and felt everywhere.
