Hand in hand: massacres, ongoing violence and official state policies.

During a combat mission on the frontline, our comrade Serhii Apukhtin — vegan, anarchist, anti-fascist, our brother-in-arms and friend — perished.

In this post, we’ve collected memories of him from those who knew him closely: comrades-in-arms, members of initiatives that he took part in.

The funeral will take place on Saturday.

To support his fa,ily and the families of two of his brothers-in-arms who died along with him you can donate here:

Funds are urgently required to pay for lawyers for asylum seekers from Gaza

These are friends and comrades from Gaza living here in Berlin and Germany who are facing imminent deportation in the coming days and weeks and freeze of their asylum applications. We urgently need money to pay the deposit to lawyers to defend them (€300 per case), otherwise they have no hope of staying here. All funds raised from here are for this cause!

Please donate if you can and share widely 💚

Funds are urgently needed to pay for lawyers for asylum seekers from Gaza here in Berlin and across Germany who:
(1) would be facing imminent deportation to Greece if a lawyer does not immediately appeal their deportation orders

(2) need legal representation to push forward their asylum claims frozen by German authorities (systematic policy aimed at making life impossible for Gazans also in Germany).

The Asylum4GazansNOW! initiative, that connects Gazan asylum seekers with trusted lawyers, urgently needs money to pay (at least) the downpayment (Vorschuss) to lawyers (€200-€300 per case). Otherwise great majority of affected persons have no hope of staying here, others of moving with their lives due to frozen applications. Berlin4 and Irish Bloc Berlin are supporting Asylum4GazansNOW! initiative with this crucial work.

Following the arrest of the Mayor of Istanbul on March 19, 2025, university students who gathered peacefully to exercise their constitutional rights during the growing anti-government protests were detained. Many were subjected to police violence and torture. We stand with all students who defend freedom of expression and strive to make their voices heard! All proceeds from this concert will go to support the detained students who continue to resist for their freedom and stand up for their rights, with the support of the Soli 25 Berlin collective solidarity network.
