10th of December anonymous group of anarchists and anti-fascists committed a small attack against tabloid paper "Komsomolskaya Pravda", which is one of the most circulated in Russia (according to some sources they sell 5 million copies). Some windows were broken, some rocks and smoke bombs thrown. KP is viciously anti-migrant and anti-antifa, and they have a number of well-known Nazis working there.

Indictment
for Terrorism against Anarchists – a Political Trial

November 3, 2009 , the supposed throwing of two burning beer bottles
at the Greek embassy was qualified by the Public Prosecutor’s office
as a crime from the list of the most serious offenses.
Six proved antifascists are thus being accused of no more and no less
than international terrorism! A group for monitoring the trial
against the six anarchists has initiated a petition, collecting

"Am 8. Dezember hat sich der Freie Gewerkschaftsverband "Sierpien 80"
(August 80) an die Internationale Arbeitsorganisation mit der Bitte um
eine Intervention gewandt. Es geht um Rechtsverletzungen in grundlegenden
Fragen von Rechten der Gewerkschaften: Diskriminierung, Einschüchterung
und widerrechtliche Entlassungen von Gewerkschaftsvertretern. Des Weiteren
wird beklagt, dass Druck auf die Strafverfolgungsbehörden ausgeübt wird,
staatliche Institutionen in den Kampf gegen Gewerkschaften einbezogen
werden und der Versuch unternommen wird Arbeiterproteste zu
kriminalisieren" - so beginnt der Beitrag "Polnische Gewerkschaft
"Sierpien 80" bittet Internationale Arbeitsorganisation - ILO - um
Intervention" der den Brief des Gewerkschaftsvorsitzenden Boguslaw Zietek
vom 8. Dezember 2009 in der zusammenfassenden Übersetzung von Norbert
Kollenda wiedergibt:

Da die nächsten Tage in Griechenland und
speziell in Athen sehr heiß werden, soll der folgende Text Ereignisse
und Entwicklungen der letzten Wochen / Monate zusammenzufassen und in
einen gewissen Kontext stellen, um individuelle Schlussfolgerungen zu
ermöglichen. Er soll weiterhin dabei behilflich sein,
innergesellschaftliche Konflikte in Griechenland in einen Zusammenhang
zu stellen und Anhaltspunkte für den Frust und die Wut vieler
Schüler_innen, Student_innen, Arbeiter_innen, Migrant_innen etc.
aufzuzeigen. Nicht weniger soll er auch als Aufruf dienen, sich in den
folgenden Wochen solidarisch mit den Erhebungen in Griechenland (wie
letztes Jahr) zu verhalten.

A new short documentary on a Prague squatting scene is going to be released at
December, 13th. Document was done in a DIY way and is released under Creative
Commons license, allowing free screening and sharing. It's name is Squat Wars.
Film is focused on history of two most known Czech squats, Ladronka (evicted in
2000) and Milada (evicted this summer) plus predecessor of the latter, squat
Zenklovka. The history is mapped through interviews with former inhabitants and
archive materials (photos, videos).
Author of the documentary announced that he wouldn’t release it for the internet for
a couple of weeks or months. He would only do public screenings in an attempt to
make people come together, discuss and maybe meet new people with similar ideas
instead of consuming a movie in atomized anonymity in front of computer screen,.
Everybody who would like to do a screening in his/her town is encouraged to write to
the author e-mail: jan.hanus (at) safe-mail.net. The plan is that those doing
screenings would receive a copy of the movie in exchange for a promise not to
release it on the internet.
The movie is provided with English subtitles and is 27 minutes long.
You could watch a trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2wBqj0dLCk
