Prisoner Support and Solidarity

Post news about individual incarcerated people by including an all-caps tag of the [three-letter country code] at the start of the post and the person's name in bold somewhere in the title to make searching the community easier.

Its a good idea to include information about what organizations are sponsoring them, what forms of solidarity they've requested, and how to send them mail.

There's a prisoner database at Prisoner Solidarity and a list from Solidarity International that are useful for looking up people to correspond with.

Zines

Posts about zines and prison literature to share with friends or mail to prisoners should begin with the tag [Zine], and should link to a page with literature in printable document format or the PDF file itself.

Posts using the tag [Info] are reserved for moderators.

I recommend reading his text besides the news article.

He writes well and his description of what got him caught is very informative to anyone who might end up doing sabotage.

(Notes: he traveled to Latvia instead of doing everything locally, some of his drones failed to take off (possibly due to a curious fox pushing them over) and had no self-destruct timers, he only slightly changed the location of the railway bomb after encountering suspicious dacha owners, he was psychologically affected by the death of his grandmother and less cautious, and on his return trip from the railway, he stumbled before a camera.)

What he describes about FSB's methods of torture might convince some other partisan to carry a gun or grenade.

In the pessimistic scenario, nothing short of Putin's regime ending will get him out, I hope it ends sooner. In the matters where I can, I try to help other people end it sooner.

In the optimistic scenario, he will be exchanged with some Russian agent who got caught in Ukraine since he consulted with Ukranians to get some information and skills.

I cannot write him. They don't need my name on their records. Peaceful people from more distant countries are better suited to write him.
