The Counter-Surveillance Resource Center has changed their name to the No Trace Project

No trace, no case. A collection of tools to help anarchists and other rebels understand the capabilities of their enemies, undermine surveillance efforts, and ultimately act without getting caught.

The old links still work and redirect but they recently changed their name and domain name to better reflect the current scope of the project.

Armenian Anarchist Group Rises in Besieged Artsakh

The ongoing Azerbaijani blockade of food, fuel, and medical supplies from reaching the Armenian statelet of Artsakh, also known as Nagorno-Karabakh, and home to around 120,000 people has today triggered the creation of a new anarchist group – Anarchist Artsakh.

The blockade dates back to Soviet-era territorial claims both Azerbaijan and Armenia have to the Nagorno-Karabakh region, which is situated inside Azerbaijan, but in which, ethnic Armenians make up 95 per cent of the population. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, both nations took up arms against one another over the area.

The first Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, (1991-94) left Armenia with the majority of the autonomous zone. Following a 2010 strategic partnership agreement with Azerbaijan Turkey has become a key player in the conflict, supplying Azerbaijan with military aid when fighting broke out again in July 2020. This material support, alongside the aid of Syrian mercenaries, enabled Azerbaijan to recapture swaths of the Nagorno-Karabakh before a ceasefire was brokered by Russia in November 2020. The gains made by Azerbaijan in 2020 left Nagorno-Karabakh surrounded.

Anarchist Artsakh:

The group, in their first post on Telegram stated, “Comrades! A new front of anarchist resistance is maturing. This time Artsakh. For almost a year now, the fascist government of Azerbaijan has kept the local Armenian population under complete blockade, seeking forced submission from the Armenians.

The dictatorial power of Ilham Aliyev is actually starving our people in order to subjugate them, assimilate them and deprive them of the freedom for which we have fought for a very long time. In the territories occupied in 2020, the occupiers are destroying our cultural objects in order to erase our traces from our own lands.

We already had the sad experience of living under the rule of the Azerbaijani leadership in the 1980s – 1990s. We will no longer allow the fascists to enslave our people. We – Armenian anarchists – will fight for the freedom of our (and not only our) people. Most likely, the Azerbaijani tyrants will soon begin a ground operation on the territory of Artsakh. We are trying to organise ourselves to resist the onslaught of the imperialists.

Comrades! We ask you to support us in our fight. After all, solidarity is our main weapon. Help spread the word about the chaos going on. Glory and freedom to all oppressed peoples!”

The current siege is the result of the December 2022 blocking of the Lachin Corridor, a lifeline between Armenia and Artsakh by Azerbaijan, which claims that Armenia has been using the corridor to smuggle arms.

Captive Comrade D. Chatzivasileiadis: 31/7/16 Attack on the Mexican Embassy – 1/8/23 Lorenzo Cruz Ríos, the Fight for Land and Freedom Continues

On the 31st of July 2016, the Organization Revolutionary Self-Defence used weapons to attack the Mexican embassy in Athens, shooting rounds at the embassy building. This second political intervention of Org. Revolutionary Self-Defence revealed that the first intervention two years ago, against the law for type C prisons and the war against the proletariat and migration was not an occasional act, even though it was an emergency response to the need to resist an antirevolutionary measure, but a practical statement of commitment to a strategy of revolutionary fight. Revolutionary internationalism remains a need from the future world that we have to take care of through acts. Seven years after the immediate response of Org. Revolutionary Self-Defence against the Μexican state, my thoughts are with Lorenzo Froylán de la Cruz Ríos, member of the native Communal Guard self-defense team of Santa María Ostula in Michoacán, who disappeared on the 1st of August and was found murdered ten days later, my thoughts are with the social struggles in the mexican territory, the zapatistas resistance against the “Maya” train and the para-state murders of fighters, the movement against the inter-oceanic corridor[1], the movement against the Nicaragua canal, the indigenous people rebellion in Puno[2] and the fighting Indigenous Association for Development and Conservation of Bajo Puinahua (Aidecobap)[3], the fighting communities of Sucre Colombia[4], the fights for Land and freedom everywhere jointly.

Call to Struggle Around Bartram’s and Against the Proposal for “Cellicon Valley” – Philadelphia, PA

Development is officially moving forward – though very slowly – in destroying the alluring wastelands of Bartram’s North, the wooded riverside area just north of Bartram’s Gardens in Southwest Philly. For years, this area has been a favorite hangout spot for anarchists, ravers, feminist nude sunbathers, and other companions in being up to no good. Within the past eight months, a fence has gone up – twice – around the fields adjacent to the bike path that runs through the area, and a nearby building is slated to be demolished at the end of July. Earlier that month, three surveillance cameras were installed high up along Botanic Ave, the street that leads up to Bartram’s North. An unpermitted rave at Bartram’s in mid-July was reportedly broken up by police, which was to our knowledge the first time cops had kicked a party out of that location.

Ten Comrades Arrested in Police Operation Against Anarchist Newspaper in Italy

On August 8, at dawn, the public prosecutor’s office of Genoa and the Digos (antiterrorist police) of La Spezia led yet another operation of repression against the anarchist movement. Ten anarchist comrades are accused in this investigation, including five comrades from Carrara, for whom the prosecutor initially asked for detention. In addition to searches in the homes, the Anarchist Cultural Circle “Gogliardo Fiaschi”, the historic center of anarchists in Carrara, has been the subject of a descent. Magazines, books, leaflets, posters and computer supplies have been seized. The preliminary investigation judge has decided on four residential assignments with all restrictions, five house arrests with return to prison at night. One comrade is not subject to any restriction. Luigi, one of the four residential comrades had no official residence: he was therefore transferred to the Spezia prison.

Two More Machines Burned at Brent Scarbrough Site in Atlanta

Two More Machines Burned at Brent Scarbrough Site in Atlanta

Dear Brent Scarbrough,

Happy Fourth of July! Today we decided to celebrate our independence from your destruction of the land for Cop City by torching two of your machines, a steam roller and a front end loader, in broad daylight across from the federal prison in Atlanta (the same site that was hit three months ago). We noticed that you only have overnight security there, and we just wanted to let you know that you and your machines will never be safe, night or day. If you thought it was chill to clearcut 80+ acres, you were wrong and you will fucking pay. You may have thought you were done with us, but we will never be done with you.

For all the trees you’ve killed, for all the owls, snakes, frogs, squirrels, snails, slugs, birds, fish, deer, and coyote you’ve displaced, for all the unmarked graves you’ve disturbed, and for our fallen comrade who was murdered while you were contracted to clear-cut the forest, we will wage a campaign of violence and destruction on any and all contractors who participate in cutting down the forest or building Cop City.

We wonder how you and Tina sleep at night (at 182 Woods Rd, Brooks, GA 30205)?

We are vengeful wingnuts with nothing left to lose.

Fuck around and find out.
