Hamburg, Germany: Incendiary attack on the car of the AfD parliamentary group leader

Posted on 2025/11/12 by darknights

Incendiary attack on the car of Bernd Baumann, chairman of the AfD parliamentary group in the Bundestag

Fiery greetings to the antifas who are being prosecuted, in prison, or on the run!

On the night of November 3, 2025, we destroyed Bernd Baumann’s BMW, president of the AfD parliamentary group in the Bundestag*, which was parked at 111 Trenknerweg in the Othmarschen district of Hamburg, with an incendiary device.

In a few weeks, two major trials against antifas will begin in Dresden and Düsseldorf. Thirteen comrades are accused of several attacks against Nazis and their structures in Germany and Hungary. The heavy sentences in the first trial, known as “Antifa Ost,”** and in the trial against Hanna*** in September indicate a strong desire on the part of the authorities to convict. Until now, the justice system has often found it difficult to convict members of militant left-wing groups that are not organized as guerrilla groups for belonging to a criminal or terrorist organization. Now, those in power are trying to establish new criteria. In Hungary, the Netherlands, and the United States, Antifa has been added to the list of “terrorist” opponents.

At a time when the murderous and racist daily practices of the Nazis, ordinary people, and cops are constantly intensifying, when the closure of borders to refugees, guaranteed by military force, in Europe, Germany, and the United States is increasing, and the US president rambles on about how he loves the smell of deportations in the morning and uses the army against anti-racist protests and resistance, in this era it is urgent to organize militantly against fascism. In other words, to do exactly what the antifas currently being prosecuted are being criticized for.

Form one, two, three, several hammer gangs!

Alerta antifascista, whether with a hammer or a Molotov cocktail!

We don’t want sexists, racists, and fascists in our city!

All you damn MAGAfreaks, you will follow Kirk to hell!

Clara, Emmi, Luca, Nele, Moritz, Paula, Henry, Johann, Julian, Melissa, Nanuk, Paul, and Tobias: stay strong, the fight goes on!

Freedom for Maja, no extradition to Hungary for Zaid!

Attaque Notes:
* The Bundestag is the equivalent of the French National Assembly. The far-right Alternative für Deutschland party has 151 seats there, making it the largest opposition group to the “grand coalition” government, composed of the right (CDU-CSU) and the center-left (SPD).
** A repressive case in which the Saxony state court (in the east of the country) tried four anti-fascist comrades in May 2023 for a series of attacks against neo-Nazis between 2018 and 2020. The sentences ranged from two and a half to five years and three months in prison (for grievous bodily harm and membership of a criminal organization). Lina, the comrade who received the heaviest sentence, as she was considered the leader of the group that the cops and journalists call the “Hammerband” (hammer gang), is currently in prison.
A second trial against seven anti-fascists accused of the same crimes will begin in Dresden on November 25 (see here for information about one of the defendants).
*** An anti-fascist comrade from Nuremberg, Hanna was sentenced to five years in prison for grievous bodily harm and membership of a criminal organization (the prosecution had also charged her with attempted murder) for attacks on neo-Nazis during their “Day of Honor” celebrations in Budapest in February 2023 (as part of the multiple trials taking place in Hungary and Germany in the “Budapest Antifas” case).
In addition to the trial currently underway in Budapest against Maja, six other Antifa members will soon be tried in Düsseldorf on very serious charges of “attempted murder” and “membership of a criminal organization.”

Berlin, Germany: Arson attack on police vehicle

Posted on 2024/01/22 - 2024/01/22 by darknights

In the night from January 17 to 18, we decided to set fire to a police sixer on the occasion of the Rondenbarg trial in Hamburg.

We are going on the offensive and not waiting for a repressive verdict, because we believe that the trial taking place today and the 24 trials scheduled to follow are reason enough to take our anger to the streets.

This trial is not only an attack on the freedom of assembly, but a further attack on anti-capitalist and anti-fascist resistance. Apparently it was not enough for the authorities to violently suppress the protest at the time, and another 80 activists were subsequently charged.

Unfortunately, we were not able to capture the burning car for you, but maybe you will be lucky enough to see the burned vehicle between the Arcaden and the S-Bahn station Berlin-Spandau.

We call for a militant demonstration on January 20th in Hamburg!

PS: our text is a bit short, but you have many possibilities to inform yourself about the process:

In the night of June 14-15, we visited buildings of the Police Academy Hamburg at Braamkamp with stones.

We salute the defendants of the Antifa Ost trial and the victims of the 11 hour kettle in Leipzig.

Raise the price for the freedom of our friends!

Hamburg, Germany: For Nahel and all the others. Private car of cop set on fire

Posted on 2023/08/12 - 2023/08/12 by darknights

A reformist view of the police as an organ of power is not only naive but also dangerous. Continuous killings by the pigs in uniform are proof that neither internal anti-racist programs nor public debate are able to keep the trigger-happy monsters in check and prevent the next murder. When we hear about the execution of a 19 year old who was riddled with 34 bullets by several cops and miraculously survived paraplegic, our hatred once again rises to immeasurable levels and we have to do something.

Let them be afraid on their patrols through the neighborhoods of the marginalized. They should be afraid at their desks when they arrogantly look at the human filth outside their windows. They are supposed to be afraid when they lie in their little beds at night dreaming of action against evil.

Being a cop is a conscious choice. They hear about the murders and the methods of oppression. They know about it and still apply to the police.

They should be sure of our contempt.

In joyful hatred and with the energy that the revolt in France gives us, we set fire to the private car of a cop pig in Eimsbüttel in the night of 12.7.

We join in the action against power with the anti-authoritarians and angry revolters in France. The pigs killed Nahel M. in Nanterre. The cop who took Nahel’s life and caused his family endless grief did it because he felt he had the right to do so. His uniform and his training give him permission. This pig identifies so much with his disgusting profession that he decides for himself whose life has value and whose does not.

Every cop is a potential danger.

Non-white people in a white society are much more often affected by deadly police violence than white people. But socially excluded, drug addicted, mentally ill, or people who are not from the right or middle class spectrum feel police violence more often.

We find ourselves in eternal hatred together with other hood-wearing people on the streets and squares of revolts.

So that the fear changes sides.

Hamburg, Germany: Tracking technology discovered on motor scooter

Posted on 2023/05/17 by darknights

In the last few days, a so-called “AirTag” from Apple was found in the seat of a scooter. The scooter is used by an anarchist from Hamburg, who has already been the subject of Surveillance and investigative measures in the past. The small, flat device of an approximate diameter of 3 centimeters and a height of less than 1 centimeter, was placed through a slit in the seat cushion, which was apparently made with a cutter knife or similar. The assumption is that an investigative agency or the Verfassungsschutz (german interior secret service) is responsible for the placement. Apple originally marketed the AirTags for the purpose of tagging items such as a bunch of keys, wallet or similar in the immediate vicinity of one’s of one’s smartphone. It works via Bluetooth and has an immediate maximum range of about 100 meters outdoors. It only becomes a tool for tracking the movements of another person via the “Where is? app. When this function is activated, the “lost” AirTag pairs with other iPhones or iPads (with activated Bluetooth function) in the vicinity and passes the location via the “Where is?” network to the Apple device paired with the tracker. Apple device paired with the tracker – and with inflationary use of Apple products and Bluetooth headphones, these small devices then record a potentially fairly complete movement profile, especially in urban areas. The batteries of the AirTags have a lifespan of about one year. According to Apple, the trackers emit a (quiet) beep in “Where is?” mode at regular intervals – which is sufficiently muffled by the upholstery of the scooter seat, for example. It should also be possible, by means of the “Where is?” app in iPhones and the “Airguard” app for Android to identify “lost” AirTags. There are some articles about these possibilities on the IT platform golem.de, which we recommend reading. The serial number of the AirTag theoretically allows to identify the device that was originally paired with it – but it is difficult to get hold of the data over which the Apple group has control. AirTags currently cost around 40 euros each – making them by far the cheapest way for investigators to use such devices for surveillance. A certain failure rate, gaps in the surveillance or a limited usability of the data in criminal proceedings, we estimate that these are insignificant reasons for the authorities not to use the devices. So: check your cars, scooters, bikes and so on. Continue reading “Hamburg, Germany: Tracking technology discovered on motor scooter” →

Hamburg, Germany: You Are The Crisis! DHL Fleet Torched

Posted on 2023/05/17 - 2023/05/17 by darknights

The face of the exploitative system is sometimes only visible in this world by looking behind the numerous corporate logos that flash back and forth before our eyes every day, spitting at us from illuminated billboards or pestering us penetratingly from the Internet.

The companies behind names like Amazon, Tesla, Vattenfall, Deutsche Bahn, Thyssen-Krupp, Telekom, DHL, etc., leave much more visible traces in other areas of the world. Destruction of nature and war have turned this earth into a battlefield and the people and animals who live on it into mentally and physically unwell beings.

The analyses that try to capture what has led to the current misery here since the beginning of the industrial age are neither abstract nor far-fetched. They clearly name the capitalist actors as the culprits and the patriarchal system they adhere to as the root cause. Only complete idiots still believe that reformist policies and green capitalism can be acceptable ways out of the crisis.

For us, it will never be enough to mark our cross at the next election or to consume or do without in one way or another. Another world can only become possible with diverse means. That is why on the night of May 11 we attacked with fire a fleet of trucks of the company DHL. Several vans and box trucks were thus given over to the flames.

With an armada of trucks, vans and a large squadron of airplanes, DHL is an enormous, CO2-emitting polluter that exemplifies the destructive lifestyle of the industrial system. Even the greenwashing campaign that this corporation runs can only fool the most naive. Let’s destroy as much as we can to slow down the destruction of the planet.

Hamburg, Germany: Neither guilty nor innocent! Solidarity with the anarchists Mónica and Francisco!

Neither guilty nor innocent! Solidarity with the anarchists Mónica and Francisco!

On July 24, 2020, three houses in Santiago de Chile were stormed and the two anarchists Mónica Caballero and Francisco Solar were arrested. They have been in custody since then. They are accused of actions against representatives of state repression, including Rodrigo Hinzpeter, Chile’s former interior minister, and a station of the Carabineros de Chile. The two revolutionaries are also accused of other explosive charges. On May 19, the trial of our two comrades-in-arms will begin. We want to inform ourselves about their situation, their history and ideas as well as the trial and give space to our solidarity. There will be a contribution (via video) by fellow activists from Chile, and we will also read texts by the two prisoners. We also want to eat together.

Hamburg, Germany: Words in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito by an anarchist prisoner

Words in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito by an anarchist prisoner from Hamburg

As many imprisoned comrades worldwide before me, I want to send words in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito from the prison Billwerder in Hamburg, Germany.

The italian state wants to bury an inconvenient anarchist alive in it’s torture-isolation-prison.-system „41bis“. Alfredo is fighting with a hunger-strike till the end against his situation and against 41bis in total.

This is a continuation of a life full of struggle. Alfredos way was also present here in the north. The attack against nuclear-boss Adinolfi, the courtcase in Genoa and Alfredo’s and Nicola’s dignified stand in it and also the written contributions over the years of imprisonment found their way to us.

Worldwide but specifically strong in Italy, anarchists showed over the last months, that we stand with Alfredo. That we will not let him die quiet in the hands of the state. Alfredos dignified struggle created a moment more complex than the fight of a simple human for it’s life. Together with Alfredo we scream against a numb society that a free life can not exist under this condition!

That we will never accept a world of prisons, neither 41 bis, nor reformist institutions. That we will always fight states, borders and all domination and authority. And in this, often tragic way, for us as anarchists lies a beauty with all the fear, joy, anger, love…we will meet and feel. A beatuy in which we will recognize each other no matter where we will end up.

Shoulder to shoulder with Alfredo!
A revolutionary embrace from the heart to the comrades in the prison cells, on the run, on the streets and in the nights.

Leipzig, Germany: Arson attack against Hertz vehicles in solidarity with anarchist prisoners

Posted on 2023/01/19 by darknights

Cheap thrills

 

Come on, come on, put the mask on
It’s wednesday night and I won’t be long

Gotta do my hair, put my gloves on
It’s wednesday night and I won’t be long

‘Til I hit the target, hit the target
I got all I need
No, I ain’t got cash, I ain’t got cash
But I got you, baby

Baby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight
(I love cheap thrills)
Baby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight
(I love cheap thrills)
But I don’t need no money
As long as I can feel the heat
I don’t need no money
As long as it keeps burning

(Cheap Thrills, Sia & Sean Paul)

With this earworm in mind and inspired by the prisoners in Hamburg, in Rome and in Athens, we attacked Hertz with fire on the night of January 12. Hertz cooperates with the enemies of our freedom and must pay for it.

In solidarity with the prisoners on hunger strike, Alfredo, Ivan, Thanos, and with the 11 prisoners from Turkey. For all the anarchist prisoners imprisoned by the state and for all the others who continue to fight outside.

Greetings go to the people who militantly defend Lützerath

For an international solidarity full of hate and passion!

Until the next parking lot.

Anarchists

Hamburg, Germany: Responsibility claim for the arson attack on a truck of the company Strabag in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and the fighters in Lützerath

Posted on 2023/01/12 - 2023/01/14 by darknights

January 5, 2023

In memory of the hunger-striking anarchist Alfredo Cospito we set fire to trucks of Strabag in the Schanze on the night of Jan. 5.
Strabag does not only build jails. At least since the struggle for the Dannenröder forest, they have also often been the target of attacks because they actively destroy nature. Our fire should also give strength to those fighting in and around Lützerath. Day X has already been proclaimed.

“We are in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, who has been on hunger strike since October 20, 2022 against his imprisonment in the 41-bis isolation regime and against life imprisonment without option of release. Alfredo’s detention conditions at the moment are slightly better than the previous weeks. He has lost a lot of weight and his health is relatively stable, but could become critical at any time. Two other prisoners in Italy, Anna and Juan have been on prolonged solidarity hunger strikes and Ivan Alocco, a prisoner in France is also supporting Alfredo through hunger strike. Toby Shone, who is in jail in England, is also supporting Alfredo by refusing to eat several days a week. (DN Note: Now out of Parc prison, under strict conditions, in a ‘semi-open’ detention structure.)
https://actforfree.noblogs.org/post/2023/01/01/italy-update-about-the-he…
We are also in solidarity with Thanos Chatziangelou of the Anarchist Action organization, who was illegally transferred from Korydallos to Nigrita prison in Serres on Dec. 19. Thanos started a hunger and thirst strike that day. The comrade is involved in the recent mobilizations in prisons in Greece against the new harsh laws that are currently taking place in many places and in which many prisoners have participated in recent months.
