Hi everyone! Today is Sunday, 16 of October and we continue our weekly podcast “Trends of order and chaos” This is episode 76. So, what we saw and thought about this week?

At the beginning of September, a court in Tyumen arrested six antifascists, the youngest of whom is 23, the oldest - 28 years old. One of the arrested is accused of organizing a terrorist group, the rest – of participation. Apart from that, two of the defendants in the case are accused of manufacturing explosives. Since then, three of the accused, have informed about tortures by electric shocks.

What follows is a (partial) translation of the September 25 episode of the weekly podcast of the Russian anarchist network and media platform, avtonom.org.

During September, we have been raising funds to continue media operations of Autonomous Action in increasingly difficult circumstances in Russia. We have received lots of donations, and we are very grateful to everyone who has supported us this far!

This article was written in the first part of July. Now the anti-authoritarian platoon has moved forward. It transferred to the new unit, where it will recover trainings, recruitment, and, after the required preparation, it is promised that it will be moved to battle. This is the moment for conclusions after the first phase of the existence of the platoon—in the frame of territorial defense of Kiev oblast.

We announced before, that we have to halt our crowdfunding prematurely in 15th of September, but documents of FireFund were eventually accepted by their payment provider, so our crowdfunding will continue as before. We are collecting funds for daily maintenance of our social media. We are spreading news about anarchist activities in Russia in daily basis, as well as news on repression and anti-war protests. We should reach our goal of 3000 euros until 1st of October, this far we have raised 1700 euros and 1300 euros are missing. Unless we reach our goal, we get no money. 

"Since the first days of war your footprints were seen..."

Resistance committee announced death of Yuri "Yanov" Samoylenko in the battle of Kharkiv region. He was strong and noble person, who was able to combine idealism, commitment, smartness and courage. At the same time he was capable to be a leader, organizer and combat officer.

Yuriy was old participant of the antifascist movement. He was one of the few who had strategical vision where we should go.

Interview was made by German anarcho-pacifist paper Graswurzelrevolution, and is published in the new issue of the paper in German. English translation by ABC Moscow.  

- During the last months you have been very busy with supporting anti-war activists. How many anti-war prisoners are you supporting at the moment?

On August 30-31 in Tyumen, Yekaterinburg and Surgut, six antifascists were detained and later placed in pre-trial detention centers. This is reported by the Prometheus telegram channel:

"On August 30, two anti-fascists were detained in Tyumen. According to investigators, they were carrying an explosive, which they allegedly wanted to test near the Tyumen Thermal Power Plant. On 2 September they were charged with fabrication of weapons and detained until the end of October.

Hi everyone! Today is Sunday, August 28 and we continue our podcast “Trends of order and chaos”. This is episode 69. Here are the main topics on past weeks’ agenda.

The war rages for half a year now

This week marked half a year of “special operation”, or rather of the official stage of war against Ukraine, when Russian government openly entered its army on Ukrainian territory, without hiding behind its “little green men”.

On June 4, Vladimir Zolotarev set fire to the National guard entrance in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. Next day he was detained. In March, several canisters of fuel were found in his car, but he was not charged at the time. Now, Zolotarev is charged with "violence against a representative of authority" and "attempting to commit an act of terrorism."
