For Mutual Aid & Solidarity
The Direct Action Cells claim responsibility for the incendiary attack on the office of far-right lawyer and failed politician Vasilis Kapernaros in the Kypseli neighborhood in the early hours of April 2. Just as we did the last time we attacked a collaborator in the crimes of Tempi (the Vozenberg residence, February 2025), so now we name the cell that carried out the attack after the armed urban guerrilla Kyriakos Xymiteris. We call upon all fighting revolutionary forces. Every comrade who devises subversive plans and puts them into action through dynamic acts, to take up the torch and honor the memory of our comrade as he deserves. To set fire to the quiet nights of the metropolis. To take the risks that are necessary so that we can show through our actions that there is no better way to remember and honour our dead than by intensifying the war against the rot of the system and its dominant culture.
The reason for our group’s attack on the office of that wretched individual known as Kapernaros is his active involvement in covering up the crime at Tempi, as he is the lawyer for Interstar Security, the company responsible for security and video surveillance of the railway network. The company that concealed for years the videos of the trains that collided that day and, along with other parties, contributed to the concealment of critical evidence regarding the crime. At this moment, the company’s legal representative and two ΟΣΕ executives are on trial for failing to hand over the videos of the freight train being loaded at the station in Thessaloniki. In this courtroom, as relatives of the victims report, Kapernaros bursts in with an escort, taunts and bullies people, culminating in a vile attack on former hunger striker Panos Routsis.
To put it more plainly, we’re dealing with a servile lackey. A few months ago, and “coincidentally” immediately after Kyriakos Mitsotakis’s interview—in which he wondered if there were any videos from the tunnels showing the freight train —the eager scoundrel appeared, donning the guise of a saviour lawyer, with three “forgotten” videos, which he even shared with an old acquaintance of ours, Aris Portosalte. He therefore chose to bear the burden of responsibility for distorting the facts and burying the truth of the Tempi crime, placing himself in the spotlight of public criticism—as such megalomaniacal figures always desire. The criticism we have consistently chosen is that of fire and revolutionary praxis.
Kapernaros, the son of a cop, grew up in post-Civil War Greece in an environment that can be summed up by the slogan “Fatherland – Religion – Family.” He, too, is just another two-bit patriot like those who donned hoods and betrayed resistance fighters to the occupiers, later fighting them in the mountains at the behest of their new masters as “bandits.” Like those who, exploiting the people’s hunger and hardships, amassed fortunes like black marketeers. All these vermin presented themselves to the post-civil war state as good Christians and patriots, while they were the greatest scum in the history of this land.

Part II: Two more video clips for worldwide destructive anarchy. ‘Armed Joy’ + ‘Black International’. First clip narration is from Alfredo M. Bonanno‘s seminal Armed Joy. One of the most important pamphlets of the late 20th Century, for which Alfredo was imprisoned in Italy. The book has been translated into many languages and continues to circulate. The message of the book is as vitally urgent today as it was when it was first published. Second clip honours our slain anarchist comrades and our internationalist tendency of attack. This civilization will be ruins…
For practical black anarchy.

Claim of Responsibility for Arson Attack on a Cop’s House by Anarchist Strike Group “Memory and Anger”
In March, none of us shall die (March 2010, Daphne – Lambros Fountas, an anarchist guerrilla who fell in a clash with cops) – (March 2026, outskirts of Rome – Sara Ardizone and Sandro Mercoliano, anarchist comrades who were killed by an explosion)
In October, none of us shall die (October 2024, Ampelokipi, Athens – Kyriakos Xymitiris, anarchist guerrilla killed by explosion)
In May, none of us shall die (May 2025, Thessaloniki – Snizanna Paraskevaidou, fell in an explosion during an attack on a bank)
And the story continues like this. Through the battles of our own people, simple, everyday. Like Lambros, like Kyriakos, like Snizanna, like Sandro and Sara and so many more people who lost their lives in direct action.With determination, with our own rage and memory, we took to the streets at dawn on March 10, the date that the anarchist revolutionary guerrilla Lambros Fountas fell fighting under fire from cops in Daphne 16 years ago and we attacked a cop’s house in Kaisariani with an incendiary device.
We have every reason to target the state’s scumbags who act as security guards for the bosses and the ruling elite. With this move, we want to remind them and all cops that we will not leave their activity unpunished. They are the ones who target fighters, violently attack demonstrators, torture and murder people in cop stations, at borders, as well as people from the impoverished margins and our own class. Let them remember and know that we can also locate them in their homes, in their neighbourhoods, in their jobs and that they are not really safe anywhere in making this choice to serve the system.
It is a fact that the state invests in order and security by strengthening policing at every level of central government. In this way, it prevents any resistance from below on behalf of capital as much as possible, while at the same time strengthening military-police capital through funds for security forces and armament programs. This is a phenomenon that is parallel in relation to the international geopolitical situation. As the war intensifies abroad (Middle East, Ukraine) and the Greek state participates in it through the Greek-Israeli-American alliance, NATO and the EU, so does the repression at home. Cops of all kinds are positioned to control our lives. The same applies to every field of public space from universities to neighbourhoods, squares and other natural sites (see Exarchia Square, Strefi Hill).
So, let fear change sides then. No matter how much the complicit and regime-based mass deception media cover you up by hiding our actions, we know the anxiety that these visits to your homes cause you. If you don’t pack up, we will come again. Our lives are not expendable. We want to show that you are the terrorists and dangerous to the public interest, not us who return the minimum percentage of your share of violence.
We express our solidarity with the Palestinian people who are fighting for their lives. Let us intensify the anti-war action against the war crimes occurring in Palestine, Lebanon and Iran by the Western bloc. We will not become meat for the murderers’ cannons because the local leaders, with Mitsotakis and Dendias as the first and best, rushed to ally with Netanyahu and Trump.
The choice to connect these contents through action on the day of remembrance of the anarchist guerrilla Lambros Fountas constitutes a connecting link between memory, action and continuity.

Asphalt plant of VINCI/EUROVIA on Fire – for a black spring, for the prisoners in the Ampelokipoi case
A circular economy of death and destruction
Faced with climate crisis, extractivist devastation, and imperialist aggression, a burning asphalt mixing plant owned by one of the world’s largest construction and infrastructure companies actually speaks for itself. Nevertheless, we would like to say a few words about our motives and the company that has been attacked. Because VINCI/EUROVIA is much more than just a producer of asphalt and concrete. This company embodies pretty much everything we despise and that makes this world a place full of oppression, suffering, and misery: highways, airports, dams, (deportation-) prisons, nuclear facilities, military equipment, oil and gas pipelines, mining, and much more…
Everyone who wants to know already knows – the biosphere is suffocating under the gray burden of civilization, and in the near future, many regions of the planet will be uninhabitable as a result of our imperial ways of life and economic practices. Battles over living areas and resources on an unseen scale seem unavoidable, and the current escalation of military conflicts and the relentless war against migrants on the streets of US cities or at the EU’s external borders are already grim signs of what this will look like. Since long we running out of time. The late capitalist world system is in the midst of profound upheaval, and war is becoming the new normal, while the remaining natural world serves only as a source of raw materials to be plundered before others do.
Companies such as VINCI are benefiting across the entire spectrum from these developments. By constructing nuclear reactors, oil pipelines, and gas terminals (such as the one in Brunsbüttel), the company understands how to secure the future of fossil fuel dinosaurs while simultaneously profiting from the illusion of green energy through huge wind farms and hydroelectric power plants. With its motorway and road network spanning several thousand kilometers and over 70 airports in 14 different countries, built and operated by VINCI, the company is also a major pillar of the global transport infrastructure, fueling, inch by inch, a parasitic system that knows only one direction – and that’s leading straight into ecological collapse. Land grabbing, wars, and genocide are inextricably woven into this system and have enabled the triumph of capitalism, whereby our “wealth” and Western dominance are undoubtedly a product of this deadly (colonial) history. However, in the international scramble for power, influence, and resources, that Western dominance must increasingly assert itself against other players, which leads once again to senseless bloodshed, while creating a good mood in the management suites of the arms industry. ReArm Europe is the battle cry from Brussels to prevail in this conflict, and VINCI is also playing a major role in this front of rearmament and militarization. Therefor the company recently acquired Wärtsilä SAM Electronics, which maintains several German Navy shipyards or provides infrastructure services for dozens of British Army facilities. Wars and environmental destruction, which have always gone hand in hand with the expansion of capitalist exploitation, are forcing more and more people to leave their homes, and never before have so many people been displaced worldwide as today. The „dispensable“ masses of people from the global south are being fought with all severity, and their escape routes have long since turned into mass graves with countless deaths. For those who nevertheless manage to make it all the way here, it is not empathy and compassion that await them, but humiliation, racism, and repression. All of these characteristics, which have shaped the public debate on migration in almost all political camps for years, and thus significantly promote (neo-)fascist tendencies. And here comes full circle. Because even the suffering of refugees can be exploited for profit, and VINCI benefits from the construction of deportation centers and border controls under Europe’s rigorous border regime.

HONOR FOREVER TO THE ANARCHIST –
MEMBER OF THE REVOLUTIONARY STRUGGLE, LAMBROS FOUNTAS
On March 10, 2010, in Dafni, preparations for a major operation by Revolutionary Struggle aimed at sabotaging the enforcement of the “memorandum” were in their final stages. The attempt to seize a vehicle that the organisation would use for this action resulted in a clash with the cops. Comrade Lambros Fountas, our beloved comrade-in-arms in the struggle, was killed. Nothing would ever be the same again.
The Revolutionary Struggle—the struggle to block the “memorandum,” the struggle to overthrow the ruling regime and bring about social revolution—suffered a severe blow. The organisation had publicly stated that it anticipated the Greek state’s bankruptcy as a consequence of the 2008 global economic crisis and had demonstrated the scale of its actions, primarily through the bombing of the stock exchange in September 2009. It had spoken of its goals and the opportunities that the economic crisis and the widespread delegitimisation of the political and economic system during that period would open up. It had publicly declared that the only way out of the crisis would be a Social Revolution.
A month later, the first crackdown against the organisation took place, along with the arrests.
The death of our comrade was a very significant event. It was significant not only for us, his comrades in Revolutionary Struggle, and not only for the anarchist movement in which he had been actively involved for many years and was particularly beloved by all his comrades. It was not only significant for Revolutionary Struggle, whose activities had been frozen for two years.
Above all, it was significant for the overwhelming majority of society, which was mercilessly battered by the devastating storm of loan agreements. Lambros was an integral part of a strategy of armed action that unfolded with the onset of the economic crisis and sought, through strikes of great political and economic significance, to prevent the political and economic system—which at that time was in a state of great instability and deep crisis—from regaining its stability.

In the Footsteps of the Struggle: Lambros Fountas
On March 10, 16 years ago, Lambros Fountas, a member of the Revolutionary Struggle organization, was shot dead by cops. The murder of our anarchist comrade took place during a preparatory action by the organization in Dafni, during an armed clash with police forces.
From its very first days, the anarchist movement has defended and continues to defend the memory and the substance of the actions of the armed fighter Lambros Fountas through marches, events, and actions. The very organization of which he was a member carried out an attack on the Bank of Greece in 2014, dedicating it to the fallen comrade and claiming responsibility under the signature “ Commando Lambros Fountas,” thereby paying tribute to the revolutionary.
As a member of the armed revolutionary organization Revolutionary Struggle, Lambros Fountas chose to act through armed proletarian resistance at a time when the social base was being battered by austerity measures. Measures imposed by the local and international elite to prevent the collapse of the European banking system. And while politicians and media moguls present the memoranda and agreements as “measures of salvation,” we experienced them as cuts to wages and pensions, as a present of destitution and an uncertain future.
The Revolutionary Struggle organization fought against these conditions by targeting the economically powerful and vigorously opposing the measures of the memoranda. It chose to create conditions of political instability, making it harder to bleed the social base dry, leaving behind a great legacy for the international and domestic revolutionary movement. Through actions against predatory “institutions” —the Bank of Greece, Citibank, etc.—, the stock exchange, and the uniformed murderers of the MAT, he defended the armed social revolution, writing new chapters in the book of revolutionary history.
And while I may never have met comrade Lambros Fountas, never gotten to know him, never fought side by side with him. But the thread of revolutionary memory bridges precisely this: fighters, movements, and struggles that, while unfolding in different corners of the globe and across different times and places, shared a common struggle and vision for liberation. Thus, the preservation of revolutionary memory is anything but a neutral process. It is a thorn in the side of oblivion and a crack in the history of the ruling classes. That is why securing it is part of our very struggle, part of the present and the future. That is why, even though the past was stained with blood, our dead managed to fill the inkwell of revolutionary history. And even if we did not walk beside them, we walked alongside them. And even if we did not choose the same path, we gazed at the same skies. Because we shared the same dreams and hopes, we experienced similar fears and rage. Thus, their struggle, the way they acted, and the way they fell serve as a call to arms, a starting point, and a catalyst for new cycles of resistance. And as long as we keep the revolutionary memory alive, we keep our history alive as well. A history built on the smiles and comradely glances of our own people, our own friends, and our own comrades. Just as our comrade Kyriakos Xymiteris did, who fell in battle nearly a year and a half ago on October 31, 2024, in the explosion in Ambelokipi. A comrade who envisioned a world of equality and freedom. A just world, built upon the ruins of the old one.
So, for Lambros Fountas, Kyriakos Xymiteris, and all the other fighters who saw themselves as part of revolutionary history and threw themselves into the fray, it is now our turn to turn their loss into a rallying cry. Let us live up to our history and our responsibilities, and let us see their deaths as a motivation to continue the struggle.
