One year on from 19th April 2023, the day Cooper Andrews ("🇺🇸"), Finbar Cafferkey (🇮🇪), and Dmitriy Petrov fell in battle near Bakhmut, we will gather in Berlin to remember their lives. We'll read their words, hear directly from their friends, and guide internationalist discussions, incl. about parallels between the struggles of Kurds and Ukrainians.
The 3 are among many anarchists, feminists, antifascists, trade unionists & human rights defenders who have perished in the Russian imperialist war in Ukraine. Dmitriy, Finbar & Marsy previously fought in defence of the revolution in Rojava.

Telegram, which does little policing of its content, has also became a hub for Russian propaganda and misinformation. Many pro-Kremlin channels have become popular, alongside accounts of journalists and other independent observers. But because group chats and the channel features are not end-to-end encrypted, Galperin said user privacy is potentially under threat. "The result is on this photo: fiery 'greetings' to the invaders," the Security Service of Ukraine wrote alongside a photo showing several military vehicles among plumes of black smoke. Just days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Durov wrote that Telegram was "increasingly becoming a source of unverified information," and he worried about the app being used to "incite ethnic hatred." Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications.
