In the early morning of Wednesday 12 January at 05:45 am, once again, masked security guards approach the space occupied on Monday 10 in solidarity with the eviction of the occupation of the sketi at the biological building, which took place on new year’s eve, while at the same time police vans are lined up in the streets around the university campus and riot cops invade the campus. The squat was guarded by comrades, who defended it with dignity. The known garbage of repression, with their known murderous intentions, sought to drown the occupiers with tear gas and by using stun grenades in a space where they did not even know what materials were left over from the former use of the space as a pharmaceutical laboratory. Of course we have no doubt that ridiculous and misleading narratives will be played out by the state and the media about the materials that were already in the space and the destruction that the cops themselves caused in their rage when they invaded the space, smashing windows and walls. Besides, it seems that the cops’ sledgehammers have the magical property of making the spaces usable for the university and student community…
We will continue to find space(s) in your rotten society and we will not stop for a moment to stand with the comrades who are persecuted.
We call for a solidarity gathering at the Thessaloniki courts on Thursday 13/1 at 09.00 and for solidarity with the steki at Biologica and the squats that are being attacked by the state.
THURSDAY 13/1 AT 09:00 AT THESSALONIKI COURTS

Statement from Terra Incognita:
No eviction will go unanswered
On Wednesday 12 January at dawn, the cops, consisting of uniformed and non-uniformed forces, once again invaded the campus of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and evicted the new occupation behind the Chemistry Department, which took place on Monday 10 January. During the eviction, the cops used stun greandes and tear gas against the people inside defending the occupation and vandalized it. The comrades were arrested, charged with misdemeanors and will be arraigned tomorrow, Thursday 13 January.
From the very first moment the informers took over their work. False reproduction of facts, false news. They show pictures of the occupation broken and destroyed by the cops, stating that the damage was done by the occupiers. But we are not getting trap as we all know the role of the media…
In front of us is once again the rectorate of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki which in recent years has tended to become the new police headquarters in the city. After the order to evict the Terra Incognita squat in August 2020 and the steki Biologica in December 2021, the Papaioannou gang takes another step by opening the gates of the campus to welcome their colleagues in uniform, proceeding to a new eviction. It wants to assure us that it will not allow “arbitrary and illegal acts by fringe elements” to exist inside the university. We, on the other hand, assure him that nothing is over and nothing is dying. We are here and will continue to exist in new occupied spaces, in the streets, next to all the insurgents of the earth.
We were, are and will be squatters for life.
To understand the real, to make our lives a threat again.
Squatting is the past, present and future of the struggle for freedom.
And we are flesh of their flesh.
Gathering in solidarity with those arrested during the eviction of the occupation inside the Chemistry Department.
Thursday 13 january at 09:00 at the courts of Thessaloniki
No one is alone against the repressive rage of the state
