In the morning, comrades occupied the building of “Olympion” cinema, in the northern city of Thessaloniki. It’s one of the most central spots of the city (Aristotle square) and it was taken in order to convert it to a spot of resistance and meeting of the people. A communique was published and handed to people. It calls “everyone to go out to the streets”.

In the afternoon some videos were shown: “The Wobblies”, videos about the incidents of Nikea (#103, #105, #107, #108, #111, #113), about last December’s insurrection, about the case of the anarchist prisoner Ilias Nikolaou and then an open discussion/assembly was held.

As the situation in Athens became known, and a spontaneous demonstration was decided in coordination with comrades from the other occupation of the city (Theater School Occupation). It passed in front of the Police Department and moved in the central streets, followed by a lot of riot police.

Later in the night, tension was reported near the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, as riot police presence was noticed. Hours later (around 4am) about 100 riot policemen attacked the area (transpassing the academic asylum area) from different directions and arrested 7 persons.  Eye witnesses and a pirate radio station that is based in the university (http://www.1431am.org/) report that the arrested were just sitting in the university campus, as many universities are occupied by students. It’s the second time cops enter this university, the first one happened two years ago.

EVERYBODY TO THE STREETS, TO BREAK THE TERROR
