Sabotage Action by HBDH Against the BİM Market in Arnavutköy in Istanbul, Turkey

From a written statement made by the People’s United Revolutionary Movement (HBDH) Şervan Can Güder Militia: “On March 23, 2022, around 20:00, we burned the Arnavutköy warehouse of BİM Market to ashes. After the sabotage action we carried out on the warehouse of the BİM Market located on the old Edirne asphalt street, great material damage occurred.”

The statement also noted: “The fire of freedom that the Kurdish people and Turkish workers lit together in the Newroz areas targeted exploitation on the way to 1 May. Migros, BİM, Yemeksepeti, construction workers and dozens of workers’ resistance are standing against the exploitation order of the bosses. Against these resistances, we warn the bosses who humiliate the workers, attack them by the police, and impose slavery on them. You are the target of HBDH. We will burn your wealth, which you have acquired by exploiting the labor of the workers, to ashes overnight.

The liberation of the workers is through a united struggle with the oppressed Kurdish people. Just as the Kurdish people, who numbered millions just yesterday, turned colonialism to rags in Newroz squares, today workers and laborers can turn the power of exploitation into ashes with a united struggle.

Our militias intensified the Newroz fire with this action. Our united spring is near. Our united spring will continue to hold accountable the bosses who exploit the workers, the state that massacred the revolutionaries and the children of the Kurdish people in prisons. This is the language understood by fascism, the exploiting class bosses and colonialism. We respectfully commemorate Şervan Can Güder, Newroz Şehits and National Hero Week Şehits who were murdered in the dungeons with this action.”


Translation note: Şehit is a Kurdish word for Martyr. Newroz is the Kurdish celebration of Nowruz; the arrival of spring and new year in Kurdish culture.
