Posted on 2025/04/07 - 2025/04/07 by darknights

Santiago, $hile: Mosaic in memory of comrade Javier Recabarren Olivares

Posted on 2025/03/28 by darknights

The 18th of March marked a new anniversary of the death of our beloved anarchist anti-speciesist comrade, Javier Recabarren Olivares, who was run over by an ill-fated bus on the corner of Radal and Alameda in 2015. Since then there have been several gestures of comrades who have insisted on keeping his memory alive and present through various actions. We salute the generosity of those comrades because, it is thanks to their stubbornness that Javi’s joyful and restless rebelliousness has crossed the barriers of time and has accompanied us in our permanent antagonism to all authority; especially those of us who did not know him in life.
So, exactly 10 years after Javi’s departure, and seeking to keep his anarchic fire burning, a group of affinities went to the corner where the compa left this plane to complete the final part of a project we had started some time ago: the installation of a mosaic portraying Javi with Taco, the polar bear whose kidnapping at the Metropolitan Zoo in Santiago called for many protests, in many of which Javi participated.
Although the construction of the mosaic took many weeks of meticulous work behind closed doors, its installation on the street was done in broad daylight between the hectic fight of street vendors (most of them people born in other parts of the continent who try to survive the precariousness of the “every man for himself” world) with the bastard citizen security and the yuta (cops) in the middle of the Alameda, attracting the curious glances of the passers-by from whom in some cases we receive words of closeness and encouragement when we know we are people in constant struggle to survive in this ill-fated society. Despite this we must clarify that we do not consider ourselves artists or masters in this, on the contrary, we threw ourselves into this path learning on the fly without fear of disaster with the support of various individualities that were present at different stages, because we continue to insist on the “do it yourself” without authority or leaders, only with the will and desire to be a contribution.

Just days away from a new March 29th, and encouraging the multiplicity of expressions of agitation on this day of active and incendiary commemoration-action, we call to sustain the gestures of memory in everyday life, transcending specific dates. It is in the constancy and the day to day where memory becomes action.

With Javi’s fire on the barricade and Taco’s roar in our hearts!
For the destruction of all cages!
Against all authority and for total liberation!
JAVI AND TACO PRESENTE!

Santiago, Chile: Barricades in memory of the compañeros Lupi, Tortuga, Belén and Risue.

Posted on 2025/02/07 - 2025/02/10 by darknights

Received on 28/01/2024:

Encapuchados (hooded ones) raised barricades, while at the same time there were demonstrations for the forced disappearance of Julia Chuñil and her dog Cholito. Facts that should not leave anyone indifferent and that show us -once again- that the Power and its accomplices can carry out this type of acts against those who become a nuisance, a threat to their interests.

A banner was left at the site in memory of the recently deceased comrades Lupi, Tortuga, Belén and Risue.

Chile: Molotovs Against Police in Memory of Kyriakos X. and Kevin Garrido and in Solidarity with Marianna M.

Posted on 2024/11/27 by darknights

As part of the call for a Black November in memory of comrade Kevin Garrido, a group of young anarcho-nihilists set up barricades and clashed with police near a secondary school in Chile during the first weeks of November. At the scene they threw molotovs for black memory, in solidarity with the prisoners of social war, in solidarity with the comrades of “INBA”, who were hit by fire while making Molotov cocktails in the toilets of a secondary school in Santiago, Chile. Also, among the molotovs thrown there is a call for solidarity with comrade Marianna M. and in memory of comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris.

The propaganda read:

“MEMORY AND REVENGE FOR OUR DEAD!

Black November for Kevin Garrido

Down with the cages of civilized society

Free our imprisoned comrades in Chile and the world, Joaquín García, the prisoners of the July 6 case, Monica and Francisco, Aldo and Lukas, Ayekan and every prisoner of war, in the streets!

Solidarity with the comrades of INBA, action and mutual aid!

Solidarity and action with comrade Marianna M. who is hospitalized in Athens.

Kevin Garrido, Kyriakos Xymitiris and each of our dead present!”

Santiago, $hile: Numerous incendiary outbreaks at schools and university campuses in the month of October

Posted on 2024/11/03 by darknights

Yesterday (October 11), hooded individuals erected barricades and clashed with the police in the vicinity of the National Institute in commemoration of the death of Denisse Cortés, a comrade and human rights observer who actively participated in the protection and safeguarding of her people in the context of social struggle.

On the other hand, a banner was unfurled denouncing mismanagement and embezzlement of public funds regarding the management and payment of overtime for some officials of the institution, who look after their own interests instead of those of the educational community.

No arrests were made.

Chile: Raids for explosive device investigation

Posted on 2024/07/09 by darknights

As Informativo Anarquista, we aim to provide a brief update on recent events unfolding since the early hours of July 6, prior to the commemoration of the late compañera Luisa Toledo.

– Police conducted a series of raids on Radio Villa Francia, Comedor Popular Luisa Toledo, and multiple residences across various communes including Estación Central, Macul, Santiago Centro, La Granja, Cerrillos, and Maipú.

– During the operations, law enforcement uncovered artisanal and industrial weapons such as pistols, revolvers, a rifle, and a submachine gun alongside ammunition at one location.

– An industrial explosive intended for mining was discovered at another residence.

– Moreover, a homemade grenade containing black powder and a tear gas bomb were seized during a separate raid.

Subsequent to these events, on the afternoon of July 6, several individuals were formally charged. As of July 8, one person remains hospitalized. Of the detained individuals, one has been placed in preventive detention, two are under nighttime house arrest, nine have been deemed unlawfully detained, and one is awaiting an appeal.

Today, July 8, the preventive detention of a comrade and the house arrest of two others have been confirmed. The nine comrades previously held unlawfully are still awaiting a decision until July 9. Meanwhile, the comrade awaiting appeal has been placed under house arrest upon payment of bail. However, the Southern Prosecutor’s Office has lodged an appeal, which the Court of Appeals is set to deliberate on Wednesday, July 9. Furthermore, the hospitalized individual has been formally charged and placed in preventive detention.

These raids follow an investigation stemming from the incursion involving an explosive device placed in a Nissan car company in December 2023 and the deployment of a “sticky bomb” on a police vehicle during the March 29 skirmishes, coinciding with Día del Joven Combatiente (Day of the Combatant Youth).

Solidarity with those currently detained or imprisoned.
