Anarchist Ruslan Sidiki remains in detention — and we continue to support him. Right now we need to raise 200,000 rubles to pay for his lawyer’s work for the next three months. When someone is held in a pre-trial detention center (SIZO), this is the most expensive period to provide support. At the same time, it’s also when there are more opportunities — for the defense, regular lawyer visits, and filing appeals.

Upd. Cancellation of the concert in support of Ruslan Sidiki. Fires of freedom launches an urgent fundraiser

This Saturday, September 13, Berlin will host a concert in support of Ruslan Sidiki - a Russian anarchist sentenced to 29 years in prison for anti-war guerrilla activities. In 2023 Ruslan staged a drone attack on a military airfield and undermined railroad tracks used for military purposes - 19 freight cars derailed.

On May 23, anarchist Ruslan Sidiki was sentenced to a record-breaking 29 years in prison. He received this sentence for two acts of sabotage against military infrastructure: blowing up a railway track and carrying out a drone attack on an airfield. Ruslan explained his actions as an attempt to hinder attacks on Ukraine.
