Judicial Harassment Against Anarchist Militant Gabriel Pombo da Silva

From Abolition Media - Italy, Spain

The Italian authorities are continuing judicial repression against anarchist militant Gabriel Pombo da Silva, who was sentenced to two years in prison for “incitement to crime” as part of Operation Scripta Manent, despite the recognition by the Spanish state that he has already served 2 years and 8 months of excess detention.

On repression for the weekend, 14th–16th November 2025 in Hamburg

From Act for Freedom Now!

Last weekend, 14th–16th November 2025, anarchists from different countries met for the second time for an international exchange to analyze, debate, and develop anti-militarist struggles. Contributions in person, via video, and in writing from comrades in the UK, Greece, Israel/Palestine, Italy, France, Finland, and Germany were presented. As we can easily understand, the enemies of freedom and their dogs are surely not fond of an international moment like this. Besides surveillance around our meeting, we want to make one incident known:

A Call for International Solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

From Abolition Media

A CALL FOR INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY: NO COMRADE WILL BE LEFT ALONE IN THE HANDS OF REPRESSION!

Alfredo Cospito is an anarchist comrade jailed since 2012, initially arrested and sentenced (along with another comrade) for kneecapping the CEO of Ansaldo Nucleare. He has served his sentence for that crime (the other comrade is now free), but he is currently serving a 23-year sentence issued in the “Scripta Manent” trial. This was a repressive operation against 20 years of FAI/FRI actions. Comrade Anna Beniamino is also serving a 17-year sentence for this repressive operation.

Italian Anarchist Massimo Passamani Solidarity With Hunger Strike

In the twilight zone of sorts I find myself in- neither free nor fully imprisoned – I have decided to give up my daily work release from prison for the next week, as a gesture of solidarity with the Palestine Action comrades on hunger strike in British prisons, a strike my friend and brother Stecco has also joined. I know that my staying in prison instead of going to work will not bother the prison administration in the least. But my message is not addressed to prison management – whom I have nothing to say to and nothing to ask of but to those who are fighting against the genocide of the Palestinian people, alongside its indomitable resistance.

We only recently learned of Gianfranco Sanguinetti’s death, on October 3rd of this year. In a modest gesture of homage to this late member of the Italian Section of the Situationist International, we share below his classic text, On Terrorism and the State, in a translation by Bill Brown.

Italy: Updates about the anarchist Salvatore Vespertino “Ghespe”

From Dark Nights

After months of managing to have a linear correspondence with the anarchist comrade Salvatore Vespertino, presently locked up in the prison of Spoleto and with application of censorship of mail, we have noticed progressive delays in correspondence getting in and out.
