Italy - classists and combactives trade unions and palestinian organisations call for a general strike - info proletari comunisti/Italy

 

- Una proposta delle associazioni palestinesi da raccogliere - Slai cobas per il sindacato di classe

PER LA PALESTINA E CONTRO LA GUERRA: APPELLO DEI PALESTINESI ALL’UNITÀ E ALLA CONVERGENZA SINDACALE

Abbiamo colto con entusiasmo l’indizione di sciopero generale da parte di CUB, SGB, ADL Varese, SI COBAS e USI-CIT per il 29 Maggio 2026.

Uno sciopero “CONTRO la guerra, l’economia di guerra e l’aumento delle spese militari, CONTRO il Genocidio in Palestina, la fornitura di armi ad Israele e l’assenza di un intervento concreto per

dissociarsi dagli orribili crimini perpetrati dal Governo di Israele in Palestina e Libano, nonché da quelli perpetrati dagli USA in Venezuela e a Cuba – PER il sostegno incondizionato alla missione della nuova Flotilla e PER le sanzioni ad Israele e USA, nonché rottura delle relazioni diplomatiche e commerciali con Israele e USA”.

Oggi la Palestina, da Gaza a Gerusalemme, sciopera compatta contro la pena di morte dei prigionieri, mentre la guerra imperialista e genocida israelo-statunitense si diffonde come la peste in tutta la regione.

Come lavoratori e lavoratrici abbiamo il dovere storico di rispondere compatti e uniti anche dall’Italia, perché la gravità della situazione ci impone di mettere da parte ogni tipo di divisione per la pratica di un obiettivo comune.

Honor and salutes to CPI (Maoist) leader Comrade Rangaboina Bhagya @Rupi

 

Maoist Leader Bhagya @rupi immortalised in Indian revolutionary history who till the very end shimmered the banner of revolution in the face of the gravest adversity symbolising the unperishable soul of a revolutionary



Revolutionary salutes to CPI (Maoist) leader Comrade Rangaboina Bhagya @Rupi who was martyred in Chote Betiya Forest area of Kanker district of Chhattisgarh state! Salute to the symbol of strong will and sacrifice as a comrade!

Maoist Leader Bhagya @rupi was immortalized on 13th of this month in Chote Betiya, Kanker district of Chhattisgarh. The police grabbed her and shot her. Rupi didn't surrender, so they killed her. Revolutionary warrior Comrade Bhagya @ Rupi decided to continue the struggle and went ahead.

A guide to generations to come. Comrade Rupi has perished but leaves behind a soul which will plant seeds for new roses to bloom. Her life and ending serves as testament or metaphor that the spirit of revolution or Maoism can never be undone. Bhagya’s transition into a full-fledged revolutionary and the path of a journey stood as a testament to the immortality of a Maoist revolutionary.

Mirudoddi lost its solitary fighter. Bhagya joined the guerrilla force in 2002. Siddipet district has been the breeding ground of many revolutionaries as its role for the revolution of this country. Many children have written the name of that district in red letters, marking it as a permanent symbol or pillar of the revolution. Comrade Bhagya Rupee has carved a niche amongst those people. Tears were shed after the bootakapu encounter held in Dandakaranya's North Buster Division (Kanker District) on 13th April.



She symbolised the remaining few people have shed their last blood for the people in the hope of maintaining the right path of revolution. The coming generations will remember the form of comrade as a great warrior who raised the revolutionary flag and maintained the path of revolution.

Weeks after a series of surrenders marking the collapse of the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist) in the country, security forces Monday killed an Area Committee-level cadre in Chhattisgarh’s Kanker.

la recostitution de la jeunesse communiste en france - Interview de la direction nationale - Cause du peuple -

 

Cause du peuple (Cdp) : Chers camarades, vous venez d’achever les travaux du Congrès « pour la reconstitution de la Jeunesse Communiste ». En septembre 2025, lors de la Fête de l’Humanité, nous avions partagé dans ce sens l’appel du Comité pour la Reconstitution de la Jeunesse Communiste. Nous tenions à vous remercier de nous accorder cette première prise de parole publique, en tant que direction nationale élue. Après avoir pu assister à l’intégralité de vos travaux durant ce week-end de congrès, nous tenions aussi à vous féliciter pour le succès de cet événement. Tout d’abord, êtes-vous satisfaits de la tenue de ce Congrès ? Les délégués sont-ils arrivés à s’accorder sur une base commune de principes idéologiques et politiques ?

Jeunesse Communiste (JC) : Nous sommes très heureux de la tenue du Congrès et de son déroulement. Les délégués ont pu s’accorder sur tous les textes présentés aux congressistes, avec un fort esprit de camaraderie et une attitude exemplaire. Les débats ont été menés jusqu’au bout et chaque camarade a eu à cœur de faire triompher ce qui était juste sans s’attacher à quelconque esprit de chapelle. Certaines délégations avaient des visions assez différentes, mais nous avons réussi à trouver des points d’unité sur tous les sujets. La tribune s’attendait à faire face à quelques points de tensions, mais tous les délégués sont venus avec la ferme intention de construire la Jeunesse Communiste et ont mis au premier plan leur volonté d’avancer.

Cdp : Concernant la Reconstitution de la Jeunesse Communiste en 2026, qu’en est-il des tâches politiques prioritaires d’une telle organisation auprès de la jeunesse de France ? Comment concevez-vous l’organisation de la diversité de cette jeunesse ?

JC : Nous reprenons assez régulièrement la citation de Lénine sur le rôle de « troupes de choc » de la Jeunesse Communiste. La jeunesse tient la place particulière de première ligne dans toutes les luttes. Nous savons cependant que la jeunesse ne se suffit pas à elle-même, elle ne peut pas prétendre diriger le prolétariat, être son avant-garde, mais bien ses troupes de choc. Tel que nous le concevons aujourd’hui, le rôle d’une organisation conséquente est double : (1) l’éducation de la jeunesse au marxisme, pour forger des jeunes prêts à reconstituer le Parti communiste et (2) impulser partout où nous sommes la lutte des classes, impulser des comité de quartier, des groupes lycéens, mobiliser autours de nous nos collègues et camarades de classes. Le rôle de la Jeunesse Communiste est de créer des révolutionnaires prêts à mettre le feu à la plaine. La France connaît actuellement une crise de régime et accélère son processus de réactionnarisation, en attaquant sans relâche tous les droits démocratiques. Nous ne devons pas être dupes, les attaques sur des militants individuellement ou sur des groupes servent à créer des jurisprudences pour abattre les droits démocratiques lorsque ce sera nécessaire pour la bourgeoisie. L’une des tâches importantes de la jeunesse est de lutter pour le maintien des droits démocratiques, que nos prédécesseurs ont conquis dans la lutte, mais aussi d’en conquérir de nouveaux. Sur la question de la diversité de la jeunesse, nous pouvons en effet considérer le terme de jeunesse comme un terme large et abstrait, mais c’est une question en réalité très simple. Qu’importe à quel point nous pouvons être différents, une chose simple fait notre unité : notre classe, le prolétariat.

Cdp : La reconstitution de la Jeunesse Communiste pose la question plus large de l’actualité de la Révolution Socialiste en France, et donc du Parti Communiste, question évoquée dans l’un de vos points d’unité. Quel est le positionnement de la Jeunesse Communiste sur la reconstitution du Parti Communiste de France ? Comment compte-t-elle y contribuer ?

Avancemos en la preparación del Congreso del Partido Comunista Revolucionario en Colombia

 

Notas sobre la Declaración fundacional de la Liga Comunista Internacional (LCI)

Al proletariado, a los trabajadores del campo y la ciudad, a los revolucionarios y comunistas, les informamos que, a principios de abril, casi después de un año, se reunió nuevamente el Comité Coordinador Pro-Congreso del Partido Comunista Revolucionario en Colombia.

En un ambiente fraternal la reunión acordó realizar la evaluación del plan acordado, intercambiar opiniones sobre la situación y ajustar el plan hacia el Congreso de Partido, presentando un informe de su trabajo, que a su vez sirva para llamar a otros camaradas a comprometerse con sus tareas, así como a los revolucionarios en general y a trabajadores del campo y la ciudad a comprometer su apoyo consciente en este propósito de dotar a la clase obrera y al pueblo colombiano de su destacamento de combate como parte de la nueva internacional que trace las tareas hacia el triunfo de la revolución proletaria mundial.

En los meses transcurridos desde la reunión anterior se ha hecho aún más evidente la agudización de todas las contradicciones del capitalismo imperialista y acentuado aún más su carácter voraz y destructor, que amenaza la existencia de la sociedad mundial y la vida misma en el planeta tierra, planteando con mayor urgencia la necesidad de la unidad del proletariado tanto en el mundo como en cada país para impedir con la revolución mundial los oscuros designios de los enemigos.

La reunión examinó la marcha de plan de trabajo que contemplaba la investigación sobre la situación del Movimiento Comunista Internacional, la investigación económico-social mundial y nacional, establecer y estrechar relaciones con otros comunistas tanto en Colombia como en el mundo, actividad conjunta en el seno del movimiento de masas (sindical, campesino, indígena, las comunidades negras, la juventud y las mujeres) e impulsar las Asambleas Populares en preparación de un nuevo levantamiento popular, Celebrar el 60 Aniversario del X Congreso que dio vida al Partido Comunista de Colombia (marxista-leninista) y desarrollar la lucha de opiniones alrededor de las divergencias.

Del conjunto de estas tareas se observa un triunfo en la Celebración del 60 Aniversario del X Congreso del Partido Comunista de Colombia (ML) y algunos avances y de manera desigual en los demás aspectos: se ha avanzado en la elaboración de los planes de investigación y se han hecho algunos informes de investigación de aspectos particulares y concretos; se han establecido nuevas relaciones y estrechado las existentes y llevado a cabo acciones conjuntas en la lucha de los trabajadores por sus reivindicaciones y en solidaridad internacionalista con los proletarios y pueblos del mundo; en fin, se ha avanzado pero no como lo exigen los tiempos turbulentos que estamos viviendo.

France - La Sorbonne : Les étudiants se mobilisent contre la « Loi Yadan »

info la cause du peuple extraites

Les 16 et 17 avril l’Assemblée Nationale examinera la proposition de « Loi Yadan », soutenue par l’État Bourgeois, censée lutter contre l’antisémitisme. Cette loi n’est en fait qu’une composante supplémentaire de l’arsenal juridique dont l’État se dote depuis le Déluge d’Al-Aqsa pour faire taire les soutiens au peuple palestiniens et à sa résistance. En clair, ce texte vise à criminaliser tout soutien à la Palestine en assimilant antisionisme et antisémitisme. Malgré les 700 000 signatures, la pétition contre cette loi ne sera même pas examinée à l’Assemblée !.....

.....Mardi 14 avril, ce sont les étudiants qui se sont mobilisés avec succès en frappant au cœur des universités bourgeoises. Avec Sciences Po Paris, Centrale Supélec et enfin La Sorbonne, ce sont trois établissements d’enseignement supérieur parmi les plus prestigieux de France qui ont été bloquées.

Occupation de Sciences Po Paris

A Sorbonne, l’occupation a commencé à 12h30. Une centaine d’étudiants se sont rassemblés dans la cour, installant tentes et banderoles en soutien à la Palestine. Les slogans contre la loi Yadan et en soutien à la Palestine sont rapidement repris et applaudis par la foule d’étudiants venue observer, nombre d’entre eux rejoignant les étudiants mobilisés derrière les banderoles.

La réaction de la direction ne se fait pas attendre, les amphis et salles de cours sont évacués petit à petit pour préparer l’expulsion des occupants, mais face au nombre d’étudiants mobilisés et sympathisant de la mobilisation, il faudra 5h à l’administration pour évacuer entièrement la Sorbonne.

A l’extérieur, un rassemblement de plus de 150 personnes se forme rapidement pour soutenir l’occupation et retarder l’intervention policière. Le slogan anti-colonialiste attaqué par la loi Yadan “De la mer au Jourdain, la Palestine aux Palestiniens” a été chanté à l’intérieur, comme à l’extérieur, par la masse d’étudiants présents. Les occupants saluent le rassemblement de solidarité devant la Sorbonne par les fenêtres, les étudiants chantent des slogans ensemble, la faucille et le marteau sont agités à la fenêtre et une banderole est déployée. Deux drapeaux flottent dans la Sorbonne, celui de l’héroïque peuple Palestinien et le drapeau communiste avec la faucille et le marteau.

Au bout de 5h d’occupation, l’université finit à peine de vider ses couloirs et les rumeurs d’une intervention policière imminente se répandent après l’évacuation de l’occupation à Science Po. Certains parmi les occupants commencent à adopter un ton alarmiste et de peur, rapidement chassé par le feu de la combativité et l’optimisme révolutionnaire porté par les Jeunesses Communistes et les syndicalistes présents en nombre.

C’est cette ligne combative qui triomphe et il est décidé de faire bloc face à la répression “J’y suis, je resterais” chantent les étudiants. L’organisation et la préparation contre la police permet de retarder l’intervention policière, les premiers à subir la répression sont les personnes rassemblées à l’extérieur de la fac, mais ils décident collectivement de ne pas se laisser faire et de s’asseoir devant les portes de l’université pour en bloquer l’accès. L’État bourgeois est obligé de déployer une centaine de CRS et de faire intervenir la BRAV M pour débloquer l’entrée.

A l’intérieur, les drapeaux flottent toujours et c’est après 6h d’occupation que la police réussit à rentrer dans la cour où s’étaient rassemblées en bloc les occupants. La police fait preuve d’une grande violence, plusieurs militants révolutionnaires ont eu le bras écrasé par des coups de pied de policiers, d’autre ont été fichés et insultés, mais aucun n’a baissé la tête, tous les occupants sont restés solidaire et ont fait front face à la violence de l’État jusqu’au bout.

Au moment de sortir de l’occupation, les étudiants sont applaudis par la foule toujours présente dans la rue. L’ampleur de la mobilisation qui a rassemblée un large nombre de personnes a permis qu’à La Sorbonne, sur l’occupation même, il n’y a eu aucune amende et aucune garde à vue. Néanmoins, la police mécontente de ne pas avoir pu se défouler, a arrêté 4 étudiants devant un autre campus de La Sorbonne pour les mettre en garde à vue.

Declaración del II Congreso Político SolRojista
“Profesor Celedonio Luis Sántibañez”

Cumpliendo con los deberes que impone tanto la creciente crisis general del imperialismo y el complejo sistema de guerras en el cual se ahoga, así como la resistencia popular alrededor del mundo, culminando nuestra Primera Campaña de Rectificación, nos hemos reunido 113 delegados de 23 comunidades de Oaxaca, Ciudad de México y Estado de México, además de los comités de diversos Organismos Generados como la Liga de Comunidades por la Revolución Agraria (LCRA), las Brigadas Juveniles del Pueblo (BJP), el Movimiento Femenino Popular (MFP), el Movimiento Estudiantil Popular (MEP), la Corriente Clasista de Trabajadores de Educación (COCLATE) para llevar a cabo el II Congreso Político SolRojista “Profesor Celedonio Luis  Sántibañez”.

En discusiones plenarias y mesas de trabajo analizamos cómo las guerras de agresión imperialistas son expresión de la desesperación de los imperialistas y de su reclamo por el nuevo reparto del mundo, siendo su principal botín las naciones oprimidas como la nuestra. Esto se expresa en la agresión directa gringa contra Somalia, Nigeria, Siria, Irak, Yemen, Venezuela e Irán y en la agresión de su cabeza de puente, la entidad sionista, que ha estado cometiendo un genocidio en Palestina y que continua e ilegalmente está atacando a Líbano. Así también con la guerra de ocupación del imperialismo ruso contra Ucrania.

Oggi giornata internazionale di solidarietà con i prigionieri e prigioniere palestinesi


Alle torture che nelle carceri israeliane vengono portate avanti verso i prigionieri palestinesi, oggi il governo israeliano vuole aggiungere una legge che istituzionalizzi la pena di morte per i prigionieri palestinesi. Prigionieri palestinesi che stanno lottando, stanno resistendo contro il genocidio, i massacri di migliaia e migliaia di palestinesi, di donne, di tantissimi bambini. Ma Israele non vuole che ci sia questa voce, questa lotta, vuole continuare i massacri, vuole cacciare tutti i palestinesi, vuole fare della terra di Gaza, di Cisgiordania il posto al sole degli israeliani, dei coloni.

Un appello che ci è stato mandato dalle organizzazioni della resistenza palestinese chiama tutti, ognuno di noi, ogni realtà, ogni forza a scendere in piazza, chiama alla solidarietà, a lottare perché non passi questo ulteriore genocidio che vogliono fare nelle carceri palestinesi. Un genocidio che tutti sanno che continua, anche il nostro governo Meloni lo sa benissimo ed è complice.

E' necessario che in ogni città noi ci uniamo e diciamo NO alla pena di morte, NO alle orrende torture che vengono fatte nelle carceri contro palestinesi che hanno la sola colpa di volere la libertà, di

volere giustizia, di non voler più essere oppressi, chiusi come in un lager perché Israele deve prendersi tutto il territorio. 

C'è stato recentemente un nuovo rapporto di Francesca Albanese sulla condizione dei prigionieri palestinesi nelle carceri. E' un rapporto che grida lotta, che fa accapponare la pelle per le cose che denunciano i prigionieri palestinesi: violazione orrende anche verso i bambini, verso le donne. Non si tratta della "normale" repressione, nelle carceri palestinesi sono la normalità gli stupri più violenti che attaccano non solo i corpi dei prigionieri e delle prigioniere, ma vogliono attaccare la dignità, vogliono umiliare i prigionieri e le prigioniere; infilano bastoni, infilano ogni cosa nelle organi genitali sia delle donne che degli uomini e anche dei bambini

Bruxelles : Journée des prisonnier·e·s palestinien·ne·s ce 17 avril


Le Secours Rouge appelle à se rejoindre le vendredi 17 avril à 19h à gare centrale, en l’honneur de la journée internationale pour les prisonnier·e·s palestinien·ne·s.

Il y a quelques jours, l’entité sioniste a adopté une loi autorisant l’exécution des prisonnier·e·s palestinien·ne·s. Celle-ci s’inscrit dans un continuum de violences de la part d’une entité fondée sur la mort. Une entité qui ne cesse de montrer au monde ses intentions coloniales et génocidaires. Les choses n’auront jamais été aussi claires que ces dernières années, avec l’accélération et l’intensification de ces violences. Le 2 avril, à Khan Younes, des milliers de Palestinien·ne·s se sont rassemblé·e·s pour dénoncer la détérioration des conditions de détention, citant privations de nourriture et soins, restrictions sur la propreté et les visites, et multiples abus quotidiens.

La tentative de légitimer l’exécution des prisonnier·e·s n’est pas anodine : les prisonnier·e·s tiennent un rôle majeur dans la résistance, en matière d’organisation, d’éducation politique mais aussi de survivance de la vie, d’ingéniosité et d’espoir.

Nous pensons à Walid Daqqah, symbôle de cette ingéniosité pour faire perdurer la vie, mort il y a maintenant 2 ans, le 7 avril 2024, après 38 années d’enfermement.

Des geôles de l’entité sioniste aux geôles britanniques, en passant par la Belgique, la France ou encore l’Italie, nous pensons aux camarades enfermé·e·s, libérez les Brize Norton 5, libérez Ali en France, libérez Ali en Belgique, libérez tous les prisonnier·e·s.

Répondons présent·e·s aux appels de nos camarades en Palestine, organisons-nous, soutenons toutes les formes de lutte qui tente de faire dérailler la machine impérialiste.
Gloire à la resistance, gloire aux prisonnier·e·s !
Construisons la solidarité !

Hungary -Building BYD Szeged: Labor Risks for Chinese Migrant Workers in Hungary’s EV Supply Chain

 

Building BYD Szeged: Labor Risks for Chinese Migrant Workers in Hungary’s EV Supply Chain


Executive Summary

This report documents the working conditions of Chinese migrant workers at the construction site of BYD’s new electric-vehicle manufacturing facility in Szeged, Hungary. 

The investigation reveals a pattern of labor rights violations affecting Chinese migrant workers employed through subcontractors and intermediary recruitment agencies. These abuses cluster into three interrelated areas: systematic excessive working hours without adequate rest, coercive and opaque recruitment and management practices, and wage and cost arrangements that, through the withholding of wages and the shifting of recruitment and travel costs to workers, place some migrant workers in situations of heightened vulnerability.

The eleven issues outlined below illustrate these systemic risks which may run contrary to Hungarian law and align with the ILO’s indicators of forced labor:

  1. Continuous Seven-Day Workweeks with No Guaranteed Rest
  2. Excessive Hours Amounting to Systematic Overtime Abuse
  3. Wages Structured to Obscure Overtime Obligations
  4. Recruitment Fees Creating Debt-Driven Labor Dependence
  5. Conditional Fee Refunds as a Retention Mechanism
  6. Illicit Use of Non-Work-Authorized Immigration Status for Full-Time Industrial Labor
  7. Delayed Wage Payments Among Smaller Subcontractors
  8. Opaque Employment Relationships
  9. Company-Directed Instructions to Falsify Working Hours During Inspections 
  10. Inadequate Medical Insurance and Medical Care for Workplace Injuries
  11. Intimidation and Retaliation

Introduction

Recruited by a labor agency, an installation worker who spoke to  CLW shared that he paid approximately RMB 8,000 (approx. USD 1,100) in recruitment fees to secure his job at Szeged. His labor agency did not even issue a formal receipt or cover any of his travel and accommodation costs. Paying recruitment fees and international travel costs out of pocket before starting work is a substantial financial burden. But the worker was informed that the recruitment fee would be refunded after completing one full year of employment. If he left earlier, however, he would need to cover visa fees in addition to all costs already paid upfront. Although his employment contract specified a two-year term with one annual return trip to China, he also signed multiple contracts with different intermediaries, including one with a Hungarian company. As a result, he was unsure which contract would prevail and which terms, conditions, and benefits applied to him.

After arriving at BYD’s Szeged project, he worked from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. daily, with an official one-hour lunch break that was frequently shortened. Except for rain-related stoppages, he reported working for many consecutive days without rest. About 70-80 percent of his wages were paid monthly, with the remainder withheld until year-end or after his return to China. This wage structure left him financially unable to stop working or resign before completing at least one full year of employment. 

The anonymized account above illustrates the recruitment and working conditions experienced by Chinese migrant workers at BYD’s Szeged construction site. This was not an isolated case; similar patterns in recruitment, wage, and working-time structure were documented across multiple subcontracting teams, according to workers.

BYD’s manufacturing facility in Szeged was announced in December 2024 as the automaker’s first passenger vehicle production base in Europe. Construction began in 2024 after permits were secured, with site preparation and foundation work underway. The facility is planning to offer 10,000 job opportunities upon completion, with an annual capacity of producing around 300,000 vehicles per year.

Inde : Manifestations ouvrières et affrontements avec la police à Noida

En Inde le 13 avril, des manifestations de dizaines de milliers d’ouvriers dans la zone industrielle de Noida ont ont été le théâtre d’affrontements avec la police, après plusieurs jours de mobilisation contre de faibles salaires et des conditions de travail difficiles. Plus de 60 personnes ont été interpellées, tandis que les autorités ont évoqué l’implication d’éléments extérieurs, le chef du gouvernement de l’Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, ayant initialement suggéré un lien avec le mouvement naxalite avant de revenir en arrière. Face à la colère sociale, le gouvernement a finalement annoncé une augmentation des salaires minimums et la mise en place de mesures en faveur des travailleurs, alors que des mobilisations similaires ont également eu lieu dans l’État voisin de l’Haryana.

Ten workers killed, 23 injured in boiler blast at Vedanta power plant in Chhattisgarh

TIMESOFINDIA.COM | Apr 14, 2026, 07.21 PM IST
Ten workers killed, 23 injured in boiler blast at Vedanta power plant in Chhattisgarh
NEW DELHI: At least ten workers were killed and 23 injured in a boiler explosion at Vedanta Limted power plant in Chhattisgarh's Sakti district on Tuesday.
Sakti Collector Amirt Topno shared the updated toll from the tragic incident. Earlier, Sakti Superintendent of Police Prafull Thakur had reported preliminary casualty figures of nine workers killed and 15 injured.
"Nine workers have died, and 15 have sustained injuries," Prafull Thakur said, adding that the explosion occured in the afternoon.
The SP further informed that right after the blast, local administration and police teams rushed to the site and the rescue operation was immediately launched to look for survivors.





According to the police, three victims were killed on the spot, while the others succumbed to injuries at hospitals. Injured workers have also been admitted to the hospitals in the neighbouring Raigarh district as they undergo treatment.

Workers and staff have been evacuated from the vicinity, as it remains extremely hot.
Raigarh SDM, Mahesh Sharma, said the probe was under way to examine the exact cause of the mishap. "A heartbreaking incident has taken place at the Vedanta Power plant today in which some workers have been injured, and their treatment is underway. Our investigation is ongoing," he said.

Chhattisgarh chief minister expressed his condolences for the lives lost and extended his prayers for the victims injured.

In a post on X, he called the incident "extremely distressing and agonising" as he wrote, "The news of the horrific accident caused by a boiler explosion at the 'Vedanta Power Plant' located in Singhitrai in Sakti district is extremely distressing and agonising. The reports of the demise of some workers and injuries sustained in this accident are profoundly heartbreaking. My deepest condolences are with the bereaved families. I pray to God to grant eternal peace to the departed souls in His divine abode and bestow upon the families the strength to endure this unbearable grief."






Talking to the reporters he said that investigation for the cause of accident is under way and that strict actions will be taken against the responsible entities.


The plant management, in a statement, said, "An unfortunate incident occurred at one of the boiler units at our Singhitarai plant, involving personnel from our sub-contractor, NGSL (NTPC GE Power Services Limited), which operates and maintains the unit."


The management said that its immediate priority is to ensure the best possible medical assistance and treatment to those affected, and that it is closely coordinating with medical teams and local authorities.


"We are in the process of ascertaining details, and a thorough investigation has been initiated in coordination with our partner and relevant authorities," it said.

INDIAN WORKERS’ ASSOCIATION – GREAT BRITAIN declaration for 28th protest against Operation Kagar

I ndian Workers’ Association is thankful to the Joint Committee to Stop Repression in India for extending the invitation to us to join this very important protest.

What is this war on the People of India? This has been waged by various successive governments of India on the Adivasis – the tribal population – who happen to live in the dense forests in the heartlands of India. They have lived in these lands since time immemorial but recent geographical explorations have revealed that the Adivasis occupy the hills and jungle, underneath which there are vast quantities of very rich minerals. These minerals, coal, aluminium, iron, steel and numerous others are much sought after by the national and multinational corporations from which they hope to make super profits. Their problem is of course the tribal populations who live on that land, in harmony with their environment. The Adivasis refuse to vacate their land for the government sponsored mining corporations.

The Adivasis have been fighting to save their land for many, many decades and hundreds of thousands have been displaced thus far with no compensation and nowhere to go. Their difficulties to adapt to life outside of their hills and forest have been completely overlooked, with complete disdain by the ruling elites of India. In the past three to four decades the Adivasis have befriended the revolutionary Naxals, also known as Maoist, and together they have engaged in the movement of resistance against the onslaught of government backed corporates greed in these areas. This collaboration – between Adivasis and Naxals – has been going on for so long it is increasingly difficult to decipher between an Adivasi and a Naxal. Are the Naxals leading the Adivasi or is it the other way around? Their combined struggles have had to endure numerous militarised operations such as Operation Green Hunt, Salwa Judum at the hands of government’s armed police and elite paramilitary forces. The latest one being Operation Kagar.

The previous Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, leading the Congress government, called the Naxalites the “single biggest internal security challenge ever faced by our country”. To eliminate that threat, the current Home Minister of the BJP government, Amit Shah, has vowed to “… ensure that by March 31, 2026, India will be free from Naxalism.” That date is due in a few days. One wonders if Home Minister’s objective will indeed be realised?

One wonders, with the Naxals “completely defeated”, will the resistance of the Adivasis against the mining corporates be also annihilated? One wonders how peoples’ resistance ceases in the face of continued repression? One wonders how pursuit for justice disappears in the face of continued gross injustice. If one gazes over the entire landscape of India, injustice is everywhere to be seen. The patriarchal subjugation of women, complete disregard of the rights of differently oriented communities, deep caste prejudice against Dalits, persecution of religious minorities, particularly the Muslim and Christians, and the unconstitutional, near imperialist, attitude towards national minorities are amongst the injustices being carried in India, only a daily basis. The government’s majoritarian approach in legislating against the hard-won rights of the workers and throwing the peasants to the mercy of foreign agricultural multinationals are yet other forms of injustices prevailing over the whole stretches of India. One wonders how resistance against such injustice can be killed off?

Returning back to the jungles of India, the Indian government may well believe that they can wipe out Naxals, Maoist, etc. However, so long as governments remain lackeys of the greedy corporations, and the elite ruling classes, in of support of maintaining feudalism and serving imperialism, whilst ignoring the rights of workers and peasants of India, countless other people’s resistance movements will inevitably emerge. That is human nature. That is the history of people’s movements. It remains to be seenwhether the 31st March will bring an end to the Naxals/Maoist as the Home Minister Amit Shah has proclaimed.

The Indian Workers’ Association GB is grateful for the opportunity to share its views with you and stands in solidarity at this historic event. Let us keep exposing the Indian government’s subservience to imperialism, feudalism and greedy corporations. Let us keep routing for Peoples’ fundamental democratic rights to life, privacy, liberty, freedom from torture, fair trials, freedom of expression, and equality. Let us continue the fight for justice and Peoples’ Democracy.

Ahmad Salem condannato a 4 anni per essere palestinese ed aver chiamato a mobilitarsi contro il genocidio - info da Soccorso rosso proletario

Ahmad Salem è stato condannato a 4 anni di reclusione a fronte di una richiesta di 3 anni e 6 mesi avanzata dal pubblico ministero. Una sentenza intollerabile, profondamente razzista e islamofobica, contro la quale è ancora più necessario e urgente tornare a mobilitarsi contro questo governo fasciosionista alleato dei peggiori regimi nazisti, guerrafondai e genocidiari, Israele in primis.

La stessa udienza di oggi al tribunale di Campobasso, si è svolta in un clima intimidatorio da stato di polizia, con la Questura che ha convocato un tavolo tecnico per la “sicurezza” disponendo la chiusura di tutte le strade del centro cittadino per creare un clima artificiale di tensione e paura e criminalizzare la solidarietà verso il popolo palestinese.

È la stessa logica con cui si colpisce Ahmad Salem, “colpevole” di aver invitato alla mobilitazione popolare contro il genocidio in corso a Gaza che ha ucciso, tra l’altro, 76 componenti della sua famiglia.

Ahmad Salem, giovane palestinese di 24 anni cresciuto nel campo profughi di al-Baddawi in Libano, è detenuto da quasi un anno nel carcere di Rossano Calabro, in regime di alta sicurezza. Era arrivato in Italia in cerca di protezione internazionale e si è presentato a Campobasso per richiedere asilo politico. Durante la sua audizione davanti alla Commissione territoriale, il suo telefono è stato sequestrato e analizzato: da lì è nato un impianto accusatorio fondato sugli articoli 414 (istigazione a delinquere) e 270 quinquies del codice penale.

«Un impianto fragile, costruito su poche frasi decontestualizzate estratte da un video di otto minuti, – fanno sapere dal movimento – in cui Ahmad invitava alla mobilitazione contro il genocidio in corso a Gaza, denunciava il silenzio del mondo arabo e chiamava alla partecipazione popolare. Quelle parole, che rientrano pienamente nel diritto di espressione politica e di solidarietà internazionale, sono state trasformate dalla Digos di Campobasso in “propaganda jihadista”. Ancora più grave è la

contestazione relativa ai presunti “materiali istruttivi”: semplici video degli attacchi della resistenza palestinese, diffusi pubblicamente negli ultimi anni anche da testate italiane, tra cui la Rai. Nessuna indicazione tecnica, nessun contenuto addestrativo. Eppure, questo è bastato per sostenere un’accusa di “autoaddestramento con finalità di terrorismo”.

Questo caso non è un’eccezione: è il prodotto diretto di un quadro normativo sempre più pericoloso. – continua la nota stampa del Movimento 4 settembre – Con il DL Sicurezza (legge 80/2025), lo Stato italiano ha introdotto e ampliato dispositivi repressivi che spingono il diritto penale dentro il terreno delle opinioni, delle parole, delle espressioni politiche. L’articolo 270 quinquies, così come riformulato, rappresenta concretamente quello che possiamo definire “terrorismo della parola”: la possibilità di punire non atti, ma discorsi, non comportamenti materiali, ma prese di posizione.

Siamo di fronte a una soglia estremamente pericolosa. Quando diventa reato esprimere solidarietà a un popolo sotto occupazione, quando la denuncia di un genocidio viene trasformata in istigazione al terrorismo, quando la parola viene equiparata all’azione, allora non è più solo un singolo imputato a essere sotto processo: è il dissenso in quanto tale. Il “terrorismo della parola” apre la strada a una criminalizzazione generalizzata: colpisce attivisti, studenti, lavoratori, chiunque si mobiliti, chiunque prenda posizione, chiunque rompa il silenzio. È uno strumento che non mira alla sicurezza, ma alla neutralizzazione del conflitto e alla repressione preventiva della solidarietà.

Ahmad Salem è oggi in carcere per aver parlato. Per aver preso parola contro il genocidio. Per aver rivendicato il diritto di un popolo alla libertà. Per questo (il 14 aprile) saremo davanti al Tribunale di Campobasso: per Ahmad, per la Palestina, ma anche contro un impianto giuridico che trasforma la parola in reato, contro la criminalizzazione del dissenso, contro il tentativo di spegnere ogni forma di solidarietà.

Difendere Ahmad Salem significa difendere la possibilità stessa di parlare, di schierarsi, di lottare. – termina il movimento 4 settembre Campobasso –La solidarietà non è un crimine. Il dissenso non è terrorismo».

USA : Une centaine de militants propalestiniens arrêtés lors d’une manifestation à New York


À New York, une centaine de militants propalestiniens, dont Chelsea Manning, ont été arrêtés le 13 avril après avoir bloqué une avenue de Manhattan à l’appel de Jewish Voice for Peace pour dénoncer le soutien militaire états-unien à Israël. Les manifestants visaient notamment les sénateurs Chuck Schumer et Kirsten Gillibrand, qu’ils accusent de soutenir les livraisons d’armes malgré les appels à leur suspension. Cette mobilisation s’inscrit dans un contexte d’agressions militaires impérialo-sionistes accrues en Iran, à Gaza tout comme au Liban.

INDIA:Women revolutionaries are a shining example in the People's War of India(RS-YM)


 



The "Naxalbari Rebellion" stands as one of the epoch-making events in world history. It raised a clarion call for liberation among the oppressed and exploited people of India; the "thunder of Naxalbari" resonated far and wide. This rebellion marked as the beginning chapter of people writing their own history of liberation through a New Democratic Revolution, guided by Maoist ideology, in a country oppressed by imperialism. Its impact has been immense across all fields politics, economy, culture, literature, family, and the environment.


Over the last 60 years, the Maoist communist movement in India has navigated various ups and downs, successes, and failures. Throughout this journey, women have remained an inseparable part of the revolution. Numerous women revolutionaries have been martyred in state-sponsored killings. From the merger of India's two major Maoist parties the MCC and the CPI(ML)(PW) form the CPI (Maoist) in 2004, hundreds of women have been martyred in just six years. Many others have held the red flag of revolution high while enduring horrific torture in captivity.


Since 2009, during military operations such as 'Salwa Judum' and 'Operation Green Hunt', state military and paramilitary forces have raped, mutilated, burned, and inhumanly tortured and killed many women in cold blood. Horrific atrocities, such as dismembering bodies and throwing them into wells and drains, have occurred. Alongside physical oppression, sexual violence against women has been used as a planned political weapon,it is a deliberate part of the fascist state's warfare policy.


In any conflict, the enemies of the people mainly target women as a means to seize power easily. 'Operation Kagar' is no exception. Since January 2024, more than a hundred revolutionary and indigenous women have been martyred in frontline battles during this ongoing military operation. The state has detained many and killed them in cold blood. According to reports from the CPI (Maoist), between December 2024 and November 2025, 320 people were martyred in this "final war" called 'Kagar', of whom 117 were women. In certain actions, the number of female guerrillas more higher than men. Notably, the number of female cadres has increased significantly from the 1990s to the current decade.


This raises a crucial question: Why are women joining the Maoist movement in such large numbers despite facing terrible state repression? What drives them? What is their hope? According to official statements, 60% of the total members of the CPI (Maoist) are women, and women serve as chief commanders in 20 out of 27 divisions. The reason women are joining in such force is their understanding that only a New Democratic Revolution can shatter patriarchy and the patriarchal state system.


Consequently, many women have joined the liberation struggle, sometimes leaving their children in the care of others. They have demonstrated that motherhood is not limited to bearing children, but extends to protecting the future of all oppressed children. Many women have continued the fight even from prison; even after surviving torture and being released, they return to the struggle.


In the bourgeois system, women are valued as commodities. While a few bourgeois women may gain individual empowerment, they remain upholders of patriarchy and do not represent the masses of oppressed women. Today, the Hindutva fascist Modi government is conducting a horrific military operation to eradicate Maoism, killing hundreds of Maoists and tribals. The central and state governments have deployed 850,000 police, central armed forces, commando units, the army, and the air force—supported by American and Israeli military advisors against the PLGA (People's Liberation Guerrilla Army).And the revolutionaries of CPI(maoist) continue their resistance against aggressors.

Women Maoists are a vital part of this ongoing resistance. The history of oppressed women is inseparable from the large history of the oppressed people. Without women, the victory of any revolution is impossible; no war can be won without them. In the Indian People's War, countless martyrs including Comrade Renuka, Comrade Aruna, and Comrade Raje have taught us this lesson. In a patriarchal social system where women are often not even considered as "human",there women are holding up half of the sky in the ongoing people's war in India. The path of liberation chosen by women in the Indian Maoist movement to establish socialism and communism is the only path forward. We, too, must walk in that path.

“Forward for a United, Mass May Day!” . Partizan


 

May Day is the holiday of the peoples advancing on the path of revolution. It is a day of resistance where the working class challenges the bourgeoisie that oppresses, ignores, steals its future, and condemns it to darkness, demonstrating its power!"
April 9, 2026 We are facing May Day 2026 in our region and in the world under conditions where unemployment, poverty, and the decline in purchasing power, deepened by imperialist wars, and the parallel policies of oppression and persecution are trying to subdue the masses. The working class and oppressed laborers, the peoples of the world, have spent the past year in conflict, death, forced migration, hostility towards refugees and immigrants; the usurpation of acquired rights and comprehensive attacks against the pursuit of rights. From May Day 2025 to today, the working class and laborers around the world; It has clung to life within a comprehensive siege and squeeze that the imperialist capitalist system has put into effect in almost every area, including ideological, political, and economic spheres. In many parts of the world, various obstacles are placed in the way of class organization, working hours are extended, and a flexible, precarious, and, most importantly, unorganized work regime is being implemented. The insatiable greed for profit, inherent in the character of imperialist capitalism, has unleashed its wild horse throughout 2025, leading the world towards destruction with a horrific plunder and looting. Capitalism, believing itself to be strolling in a rose garden without thorns on the ideological level, is shifting into high gear to overcome the crisis it is struggling with, which has now transformed into an open imperialist war in many regions. Imperialist capitalism is advancing towards a third war of partition, the cornerstones of which are being laid one by one, in order to re-divide the globe. The Ukraine-Russia war, now in its fourth year and claiming millions of lives, the occupation, annexation, and genocidal attacks launched by Zionist Israel in Gaza and now in Lebanon, with the backing of the US, EU, UK, and NATO; and the military aggression launched by the US/Israel against Iran on February 28th, now over a month old, reveal the true character of the system in all its nakedness. In our region, too, the bourgeoisie does not hesitate to implement policies that will bring even greater destruction in the name of greater profit and hegemony. In Turkey, the AKP-MHP government has further escalated its aggression against the working class, the broad masses of laborers, women and LGBT+ individuals, youth, the Kurdish nation, and our people of Alevi faith throughout 2025. It has banned and attacked resistance movements that the class is trying to organize for a humane world and a secure life, detained workers, and arrested resistance worker representatives/unionists. By targeting women and LGBTQ+ individuals, it has deepened homophobia and transphobia. We are heading towards May 1st, 2026, in conditions of profound misery, where millions of workers and laborers struggle to survive on meager wages. We are in the midst of a process where anger flows through the capillaries of the oppressed. On one side, imperialist wars, and on the other, the Turkish bourgeoisie trying to strengthen the "internal front" to turn this into an opportunity. May 1st, 2026, will host a process where we will combine the accumulated change and aspirations of all segments of society with the anger they feel towards the system. The class struggle for people's power and socialism against the exploitative fascist-capitalist system continues to exist in the streets. The mass participation reflected in the squares on March 8th, the reactions reflected in the streets on the anniversary of March 19th, and of course the hundreds of thousands who filled the Newroz squares on March 21st, all demonstrate the growing resistance in the consciousness of the masses. Our perspective on the May Day 2026 process should be to stand against exploitative policies on the one hand, and on the other hand, to organize the unity and struggle of the peoples against imperialist wars, in the context of the NATO summit that the imperialist war organization wants to hold in Ankara on July 7-8. It is of great importance to come together with all revolutionary-democratic forces that can unite on May Day and to organize a strong May Day will. A strong collective organization, accompanied by a planned and targeted agitation/propaganda effort around the fundamental agendas of the working class, will serve to develop and advance existing forces. The May Day process should host a period in which we increase our contact with the masses seeking change, carry our call for organization, and expand the organization of the class. Organizing the work with the broadest possible forces is also extremely important. The goal of organizing a united, mass, and strong May Day will also advance the existing energy of the class. The energy unleashed here will fuel anti-imperialist resistance against imperialist wars and the NATO war organization. May 1st will be a day when we unmask the Turkish bourgeoisie, which wages war against the working class and laborers under the guise of neutrality and the false rhetoric of "peace in the world," and show the true power of the class. May 1st, the revolution

Primero de Mayo a las calles contra la explotación mundial capitalista y la guerra imperialista

Se acerca el Día Internacional de la Clase Obrera, fecha en que los asalariados de los cinco continentes, por encima de las diferencias de color, idioma y creencias, levantan sus banderas, agitan sus consignas de lucha y reafirman sus objetivos de construir un mundo libre de toda forma de explotación y de opresión.

Este Primero de Mayo llega en medio de la agudización extrema de todas las contradicciones del sistema capitalista imperialista, entre las que se destacan las crecientes tensiones y los preparativos de guerra imperialista por un nuevo reparto del mundo. Preparativos adelantados por los grandes monopolios y los países imperialistas para darle una salida a la crisis estructural de un sistema agonizante que lo único que puede ofrecer a la humanidad es superexplotación, destrucción y muerte. Le corresponde entonces al proletariado mundial forjar su unidad, su organización y su lucha como una sola clase a nivel internacional para cambiar tan oscuros designios.

En los cuatro primeros meses del año la confrontación armada se ha intensificado en todas las regiones. La situación en Medio Oriente es cada vez más crítica, y a pesar de la tregua a la que se vio obligado pactar Trump con Irán, los ataques no cesan. El Estado sionista de Israel hasta el día 8 de abril, seguía atacando al Líbano, lo que generó una respuesta inmediata de Irán: cerrar nuevamente el estrecho de Ormuz y atacar oleoductos e infraestructura en Arabia Saudita.

A este hecho reciente, se suman la serie de agresiones por parte de Estados Unidos como el secuestro del presidente de Venezuela, el bloqueo a Cuba, el interés de anexarse Groenlandia y la amenaza hacia otros países. Además, en Palestina no cesa el genocidio, la limpieza étnica, el despojo y el trato inhumano a su pueblo, no cesan las operaciones de exterminio a la Guerra Popular en la India con la Operación Kagaar financiada y respaldada por los imperialistas y sionistas, ni dan tregua las guerras financiadas por uno u otro imperialista en África. Así mismo, China, Rusia y los imperialistas en Europa se preparan militarmente, aumentan el presupuesto de guerra, acondicionan las fábricas para la producción creciente de armas, refuerzan sus tropas reclutando jóvenes del pueblo para sus ejércitos, recortan el presupuesto en lo social para invertir en lo militar… dejando cada vez más claro el avance de los imperialistas hacia una tercera guerra mundial.

Se acerca el Primero de Mayo, marcado también por el agravamiento de la situación de las mujeres en el mundo, sometidas como botines de guerra, mercancía, propiedad privada, esclavitud e instrumento para amedrantar la lucha del proletariado y los pueblos en el mundo. Igualmente ocurre con las comunidades campesinas, negras, LGBTI, los pueblos indígenas, los migrantes, quienes son perseguidos, discriminados y asesinados.

Sin embargo, la conmemoración de este Primero de Mayo tendrá lugar en medio de la lucha creciente de los obreros y pueblos alrededor del mundo, mediante huelgas y poderosas movilizaciones a todos los niveles de la lucha contra el capital y de contundentes manifestaciones de solidaridad bajo el internacionalismo proletario; una muestra del repudio de los trabajadores a la explotación capitalista, a la indiferencia de las clases dominantes ante la situación de miseria y oprobio en que viven millones de personas y ante la creciente destrucción de la naturaleza.

Todos estos hechos son motivos más que suficientes, para salir nuevamente a las calles el Primero de Mayo, llamando a la unidad y lucha del proletariado y los pueblos del mundo contra la explotación mundial capitalista y contra los preparativos de guerra imperialista.

Si los poderosos intensifican su confrontación, el proletariado mundial y los pueblos deben acrecentar su unidad y lucha, que necesariamente se debe concretar en organización. El llamado este Primero de Mayo es a avanzar en la organización política de la clase obrera mundial y en el Partido Comunista Revolucionario en Colombia, cuyo propósito sea preparar la Revolución Proletaria Mundial para impedir la guerra imperialista o transformarla en guerra revolucionaria.

Del mismo modo, al recordar el motivo por el cual fueron asesinados los Mártires de Chicago, este Primero de Mayo se deben levantar las banderas contra los capitalistas que, al igual que en 1886 se negaban a ceder reivindicaciones justas y sencillas como la jornada de 8 horas y mejores salarios, hoy se niegan a aumentar salarios y pretenden arrebatar las conquistas obreras de sus convenciones colectivas.

En consecuencia, levantar las voces contra el Estado burgués defensor de los intereses de los patronos sigue más vigente que nunca. No se puede olvidar que fue ese Estado —«el más democrático del mundo»— el que asesinó a Spies, Fischer, Fielden, Parsons, Lingg, Schwab, Neebe, Engel. No se puede olvidar que cuando los trabajadores salen a las calles y afectan la ganancia del capital, el Estado responde con la represión, con las fuerzas militares, con sus instituciones, con sus jueces y cárceles. El carácter revolucionario del Primero de Mayo consiste en denunciar la explotación asalariada y reafirmar la necesidad de abolirla destruyendo el Estado burgués mediante la revolución para darle paso al Socialismo, primera etapa del Comunismo.

Sobre esta base, hacemos el llamado a todos aquellos que están dispuestos a luchar por transformar de raíz toda la sociedad y a demostrarlo en el Día Internacional de la Clase Obrera, a conformar en la ciudad o en el campo el Comité pro-Primero de Mayo Internacionalista y Revolucionario que, guiados por el criterio expuesto, agrupe a los activistas obreros, campesinos, desempleados, desplazados, estudiantes, mujeres, jóvenes, intelectuales, revolucionarios, representantes de organizaciones sindicales y populares… para organizar el trabajo de propaganda, agitación y organización de las manifestaciones del Primero de Mayo, estableciendo las tareas necesarias para concentrar las fuerzas, banderas, pancartas, altavoces… en Bloques Internacionalistas y Revolucionarios que agiten las consignas proletarias, entonen el himno La Internacional y sean la tribuna de las voces contra la explotación mundial capitalista y los preparativos de guerra imperialista.

¡Viva el Primero de Mayo Internacionalista y Revolucionario!
¡Abajo la agresión imperialista a los pueblos del mundo!
¡Fuera imperialistas de Colombia, Cuba, Venezuela, Irán, Palestina, India y de todo el mundo!
¡Todos los imperialistas son enemigos a muerte de los pueblos del mundo!
¡Contra la guerra imperialista! ¡Proletarios y pueblos del mundo, uníos!
¡Viva la Revolución Proletaria Mundial!
¡Muerte al imperialismo! ¡El futuro debe ser del Socialismo y el Comunismo!

Turkey – Joint Statement From Unions and Organizations: “Let’s Organize May Day in Taksim!

 statement published on Yeni Demokrasi.


Numerous unions and organizations, including Partizan, issued a joint statement calling for a unified, massive, and powerful May Day to be organized together in Taksim. Recalling that exactly 50 years have passed since the first May Day in Taksim Square, the organizations stated, “Today, on its 50th anniversary, Taksim Square should be the address for a May Day that is true to its historical and class essence.”

The full statement, titled “Let’s organize May Day in Taksim!”, reads as follows:

“There are only a few days left until May 1st, 2026, the day of unity, struggle, and solidarity of the working class. We, as trade unions, democratic mass organizations, leading and militant workers, and all representatives of the working class, bear the responsibility of organizing this May 1st as a day of the masses and of powerful struggle.

We are in a period where workers’ actions are intensifying and the attacks of capital against the working class are escalating. Workers and laborers are being subjected to insecurity, worsening exploitative conditions, and a life on the brink of starvation. While imperialist war rains death upon the peoples of the region with its bombs, the threat of a nuclear war is drawing closer every day. In our country, amidst wars and the destruction of nature, a NATO summit is being planned, a summit of the NATO that is responsible for the murder of peoples. War promises hunger and unemployment to workers and laborers. In such a period, it is the responsibility of all of us to carry the voice of the class to Taksim in the strongest possible way.

A united, massive, powerful May Day should be celebrated in Taksim!

For the first time in our country, the working class took to Taksim Square on May 1, 1976. Today, on its 50th anniversary, Taksim Square should be the location for May 1st, in accordance with its historical and class character. As representatives of the workers who feel this responsibility, we have discussed May 1st, 2026, on various platforms. In these long-running discussions, the statement “May 1st, 2026, should be in Taksim” has gained significant weight.

As a matter of historical responsibility, in such a critical period, we must have the resolve to respond to all attacks against the working class, laborers, and oppressed peoples. This responsibility compels all pro-labor forces to shoulder the struggle of the working class in the most effective way on May 1st.

“We call on the pioneering and militant workers, all our class brothers and sisters, to bring the May Day agenda to factories, workplaces, businesses, industrial areas, and working-class neighborhoods. For the 2026 Taksim May Day, we call on unions, confederations, union branch representatives, political parties, democratic mass organizations, and everyone who stands with the workers and takes responsibility for the future organizing of this will together!

On its 50th anniversary, let’s organize the May Day in Taksim together, shoulder to shoulder!”

Signatory organizations:

Militant trade unions, Alınteri, Independent Revolutionary Class Platform, Dev Tekstil, Revolutionary Youth Associations, Revolutionary Movement, Revolutionary Liberation Platform, Revolutionary Student Union, Revolutionary Party, Labor Power Association, Socialist Party of the Oppressed, People’s Houses, Workers’ and Laborers’ Union, Workers’ and Laborers’ Women’s Commissions, İşçi-Sen, Kaldıraç, Kızıl Party, Komün, Köz, Struggle Unity Platform, Partizan, Proletarian Revolutionary Stance, Federation of Socialist Assemblies, Party of Socialists, Socialist Struggle Initiative, Söz ve Eylem, TOMİS, Umut-Sen, Call for a New World.


Uma vitória inegável da resistência iraniana!

Revista Revolução Cultural. Brasil

Pouco havia a ser feito por Donald Trump, após o mesmo dar um prazo de 48h para a “destruição total de toda uma civilização (do Irã)”, além de aceitar goela abaixo todas as exigências do país persa para um cessar-fogo. Seu ultimato, que não poderia ser cumprido nem que jogasse uma bomba atômica no país persa, que possui 93 milhões de habitantes e uma história milenar de resistência, demonstrou somente como a guerra até aqui tem sido uma derrota inequívoca dos imperialistas ianques. 


Essa derrota se reflete, claro, no governo iraniano forte e reunificado, nas centenas de aeronaves destruídas, nos dois F-35 abatidos, nos porta-aviões tirados de combate de forma desmoralizante, nas dezenas de bases militares no Oriente Médio que agora estão inutilizáveis, no valor do petróleo e gás natural explodindo, mas também, pelo saldo negativo político sem precedentes recentes com os outras aliados ianques naquela região. As chamadas “monarquias do golfo” sofreram danos em suas infraestruturas petrolíferas, que não serão reparadas tão cedo. O Catar, por exemplo, retomou relações diplomáticas a décadas rompidas com o Irã, a Arabia Saudita foi pelo mesmo caminho e nenhum desses países retalhou o país persa. 


Diante deste cenário catastrófico, Trump tinha duas opções: a capitulação vergonhosa ou a escalada nuclear, que traria consequências pesadas para Trump e também para os EUA como um todo. Faltando uma hora para o limite de seu ultimato, o presidente pedófilo dos EUA afirmou que havia tido um acordo para um cessar-fogo de duas semanas. Tratou de chamar de vitória a reabertura do Estreito de Ormuz (que já estava aberto e sem pedágio antes da agressão) e anunciou novas negociações para pôr fim aos bombardeios. O Irã, após algumas horas, confirmou a informação e disse que os EUA concordaram com os 10 pontos que o regime já havia colocado desde as primeiras tentativas ianques para um cessar-fogo. São eles: 


  1. Cessação completa de qualquer agressão contra o Irã e grupos de resistência aliados, retirada das forças de combate dos EUA da região 

  2. Proibição de qualquer ataque ao Irã a partir de bases e abstenção de adoção de formações de combate

  3. Passagem diária limitada de navios pelo Estreito de Ormuz por duas semanas, sob o Protocolo de Passagem Segura, sob a supervisão e regras específicas deste país.

  4. Abolição de todas as sanções primárias, secundárias e da ONU.

  5. Compensação das perdas do Irã por meio da criação de um fundo financeiro e de investimentos.

  6. Compromisso do Irã em não desenvolver armas nucleares.

  7. Reconhecimento, pelos EUA, do direito do Irã de enriquecer urânio e negociações sobre o nível de enriquecimento.

  8. Concordância do Irã em negociar tratados de paz bilaterais e multilaterais com países da região, de acordo com seus interesses.

  9. Extensão do princípio da não agressão a todos os agressores contra todos os grupos de resistência.

  10. Revogação de todas as resoluções do Conselho de Governadores e do Conselho de Segurança e ratificação de todos os compromissos na resolução oficial da ONU.
