CULMINE – To all those who love the revolt as a savage bush all their lives from their own roots. In ‘our’ prison cells, perhaps with unavoidable delay, we receive news, updates, texts and communiqués for actions… We revel in them; these phrases are the lifeblood of us, they open up gold [...] FIRE TO THE PRISONS On the 31st of December, three explosive and bright charges were cracked at the three corners of the Angevin prison… but failed to bring down its old walls. Nevertheless, we shared the feeling of a breach of normality in this society which isolates, along with some shouts, which were exchanged [...] ‘Freedom to Savvas Xiros’ —banner raised in Thessaloniki by comrades who organized an initiative in support of Savvas Xiros and called for a solidarity gathering on December 17th On December 18th, 2012 the appeals court of Piraeus dismissed the umpteenth motion of Savvas Xiros for his release from Koridallos prison on health grounds and [...] In the early morning hours of Sunday, December 30th, 2012 we smashed the front window and trashed the van of a butcher shop, located on Kallidromiou street in the neighbourhood of Exarchia.

Against all kinds of exploitation and [...] To my brother Mario, Six months have passed since you were kidnapped that night out of bad luck, since you were tortured and threatened, since your family and friends were harassed. For six months they tried everything to break your acratist spirit – they locked your body within four walls and innumerable bars, away [...] Sunday, December 30th, 2012 The new period of repression, which was launched with the police raid in Villa Amalias and followed by the invasion in the self-managed hangout of ASOEE, should mark beginning of the end for state terrorism. Samaras, Dendias, Kaminis, you’ll take the first hoods off us only when your own heads [...] On Saturday, December 29th, 2012 solidarians spread a text of comrade Vaggelis Koutsibelas on the occasion of his upcoming trial. He has been on remand since the 5th of April 2012, accused of committing a series of incendiary attacks with gas canisters in the city of Trikala. Below is his short letter from the D2 [...] On Saturday, December 29th, people’s assemblies and other groups intervened into metro and tram stations by unfolding banners and sharing informative material for the right to free movement, in public transport and beyond.

The specific office-shop, based on and accountable to the state directorate, is the hole in which the fascists felt safe with frequent police presence. It is [...] On December 29th, at about 1am, our comrade Mario López ‘Tripa’ hit the streets again. With the help of solidarians, Mario paid the bail that was set for his release, so he will now await trial in ‘freedom’.

We [...] FOR THE END OF ILL-TREATMENT IN PRISON – SOLIDARITY WITH OUR IMPRISONED COMRADES We are contacting all of you due to the march that we are calling and organizing for the third consecutive year to the extermination centre of Sevilla 2, Morón, where there have been more than 25 deaths since it opened less [...] “Persons locked up behind bars stop living, they just survive in prison. Every one of them makes their own mold into which they’re supposed to fit, finding refuge in standardized behaviours and reactions (…) one becomes simply a number, another accusatory brief scattered on an iron bed, in a narrow prison cell. A number [...] Monday, December 31st: Anti-prison New Year’s Eve Solidarity gathering to imprisoned persons Gathering by 12.00 in the parking lot at Navalcarnero prison (Madrid-IV penitentiary centre, Ctra. N-V, km. 27.7) Yet another year of deception, fraud, economic and political downpour; of crisis; another year when we have been expressing our [...] On the night of December 24th, comrades wanted to add a bit of colour to the miserable Christmas decoration that the mayor of Athens, Giorgos Kaminis, had reserved for the city.

Good evening, comrades, from the D2 wing of the Trikala closed prison. Autumn 2012 saw a lot of action in this particular wing.

It was a massive protest, in which all prisoners participated, that [...] On Saturday, December 22nd, at dawn, the open social space Xanadu (operating since 2009 in the city of Xanthi) received a fascist attack.

We have already begun the [...]
