• International solidarity! let’s break all these borders together!

    After the brutal police attack on the Hungarian border (more details soon), most of the migrants yesterday from Horgoš (SRB-HUN border) continued towards Croatia (mostly Šid and Bezdan border crossing points). All kind of support is needed now on the borders! People are exhausted, they were struggling for their right to move, resisting repression days and nights without a rest. Now they have to face the same difficulties on the croatian border as well. Croatia closed today 7 border crossing places ( Tovarnik, Ilok, Ilok 2, Principovac, Principovac 2, Batina and Erdut). People try to enter in smaller groups bypassing the blockades. We call all people in the border zones to show solidarity and support people.

    Till today morning around 14 000 people entered Croatia.The authorities transport people to refugee camps, but people want to continue and move on! Some groups already arrived to the slovenian border, they face repression from the slovenian border police.

    Spread the idea of DIRECT SOLIDARITY with the people who are traveling/struggling.
    Slovenia is trying to close it ‘s borders. Right now it seems to be closed but mass protests on the borders can create pressure! We should not forget that the people on the move now are very powerful, many of them survived the repression/violence in fascist Hungary and today in Tovarnik where for some time police held people in a guarded are to hold them back (they were waiting for 14 hours to continue) and the crowd of children, men and women was just destroyed
    part of the fence or jumped the police chains after a while as a mass protest.

    Updates from Slovenia

    Latest info from activists who are on the cro- slo border ( 18.09. 1 AM): “They stopped international train to Munich and send back to croatia around 100 people, and others are send further in slovenia but we dont know where. all train traffic is stopped until morning.”

    “Train from zagreb to austria with approx 150 migrants is
    held in train station Dobova from 19:00.A lot of police (riot police and
    dogs)is here,we are not allowed to talk with migrants. situation is calm
    , we are all waiting.”
    “Please tell everybody, especially to refugees to stick together, to go the
    border in big big numbers, let us organize a camp on the border, bigger
    one. Let ua make pressure to open the borders!
    Small groups are taken by police and deported or detained in closed
    detention center!

    150 people that managed to enter Slovenia were brought to the
    detention center in Postojna.
    The international trains serbia- croatia-slovenia are stopped.
    The slovenian police is present in Dubove with many special police
    forces and dogs. In the village „Harmica“ at the croatian side of the border small groups
    of migrants are arriving. Now there around 200 but it is hard to guess,
    because they are not all in one place. People started to go towords and
    along the river (Sutla river) that marks the border of cro/slov there,
    up north. Croatian police there is only a few and very calm. Slovenian side seems
    to be more of a problem for the people

    “There will be a protest today at 18h on the Cro-Slo border (Rigonce crossing place), where people were stopped by force. Let’s make pressure from both sides of the border! “

    • Hi,
      in Slovenia we are considering an option to organize caravan for open
      borders which aim would be to prevent the closure of border with
      Croatia. For this reason we are looking for contacts with activists and
      organizations in Croatia, Austria and Italy. Hereby I am sending an
      appeal made by Antiracist front that organized manifestation for open
      borders last week.
      Dear friends,Hungary just sealed the border with Serbia and started to
      build the fence on the border with Romania. We have just recieved
      information that a bigger group of refugees is on its way to the north
      through Croatia and that they will soon attempt to cross the border with
      Slovenia. There is a real possiblity that Slovene authorities will try
      to close the border with Croatia, following the example of Hungary and
      lately Germany. We believe that we must do whatever is in our power to
      revert this possibility and keep the border open for refugees, migrants
      and european citizens. For this reason we have decided to consider the
      possiblity to organize transnational caravane for open borders. Our idea
      is to mobilise as many people as possible to enable refugees to cross
      the border and by this make a grassroots pressure on authorities not to
      close the border. We believe this is one of the most crucial actions to
      take NOW and we would like to discuss the possiblity to coordinate
      efforts with organisations, collectives, individuals in Austria, Croatia
      and Italy.Let’s connect and discuss this issue as soon as possible. We
      would like to ask you to share this CALL to those who might be
      concerned.

    • Dans le titre, je ne comprends qu’un mot... Konvoj... et du coup je sais de quoi il s’agit, plus ou moins au moins...

      “POZIVAMO sve demokratske i solidarne snage da se okupe na graničnom prelazu Rigonce (Dobova) danas u 18 sati. Dajmo vladi Republike Slovenije jasnu poruku da će Slovenija pokazati solidarnost i da nikada nećemo postati granična diktatura”, stoji u pozivu Protivrasistične fronte brez meja gdje se Slovenci pozivaju na prosvjed.

    • #OpenBorderCaravan : 24.9. bis 27.9. Internationale Karawane und Fluchthilfekonvoi

      Leipzig and Vienna showed us how to do it – in Berlin we want to follow their example. Together with many international friends, comrades and other people we will help refugees to cross the borders. Instead of only watching, we want to practically support the refugee struggles on the European borders by organizing shuttle service.

      While still talking of welcoming culture, the closure of the border was already being prepared. The armed federal police closed the border in Bavaria while the humanitarian catastrophe in the border areas of Serbia and Croatia, in the camps of Hungary and along the transit routes intensified. This closed border policy inside the Fortress Europe will not stop anyone from fleeing, but will lead to even more misery, fear and death. In this moment, it becomes obvious that the warm words of welcome of these last days were of little value. Therefore, our answer can only be practical help to cross the borders!

      Let us join this uprising against the Dublin system. The last weeks have shown that the border regime can shake if challenged by the the power of the masses. The closure of the German borders has unleashed a domino effect reaching the European periphery. So let us create a domino effect of border crossing, civil disobedience and humanity.

      Convoys from Vienna and Leipzig have already supported hundreds of people on their flight. #OpenBorderCaravan will depart from Berlin this weekend. We will depart and arrive in coordination with supporters and comrades from Italy and hopefully many other places. It will be a convoy, a caravan, carrying things that the people in the border areas of Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia and along the transit routes need most urgently - and carrying the will to to practically facilitate their flight.

      We will be on the road heading from Berlin towards South-East Europe from Thursday evening (22:00) until Sunday night/ Monday morning (24.9. – 27.9.). The convoy needs you, your energy and your solidarity. If you can join us or provide a car, please contact us. We also need donations: especially blankets, tents, warm clothes and shoes. openborders@posteo.de
      Meeting point and other information will be provided as soon as possible.

      A preparation meeting takes place this Wednesday, 23.9., 19:30 at Vierte Welt, Zentrum Kreuzberg | Galerie 1. OG | Kottbusser Tor
