BIRDS FREED FROM CAGES (France)
anonymous communique:
"Animal liberation by French ALF: a black and white bird and a crow have found freedom!
Saturday March 29th, 2008, during the afternoon we were for a walk near Versailles (Paris subburban, 78).
We arrived in a farm bordered by fields and we saw 2 birds in dirty cages. We verified that the birds were not ill, their wings were ok. Then we freed them. They flew far away. What happiness!
We wanted to break the cages but the farmer arrived and we had to run! It will be for the next time. We will come again and we'll make sure there are no bird prisoners again.
ALF is alive in France!"

BUTCHERS MARKET STALLS GLUED
received anonymously from activists in the UK:
"Late on the night of April the 2nd, nine of the freshly refurbished
market stalls were targeted on the famous Norwich market in
England. The nine market units belonging to at least three different
Butcher 'Businesses' had all their locks glued & messages reading
'Meat Is Murder' & 'Until the Suffering Ends' were spraypainted on
the walls & shutters of two stalls & both were signed by the ALF
logo.
Unfortunately these were the only gifts we could leave these
butchers. They should consider themselves lucky. This is only the
beginning.
The attacked market stalls were numbers 72, 73, 82, 83, 113, 122,
123, 102 & 103.
If anyone wanted to pay the abusive bastards at Norwich Market a
visit with glue & paint a helpful map & business guide can be found
at this address, www.norwich-market.co.uk. Since Norwich
market has a total of 19 animal abusing stalls including butchers,
fishmongers, leather, wool & fishing tackle salesmen I'm sure
anyone interested would have a wide range to choose from."

FLAMES DESTROY VIVISECTION SUPPLIER HQ (Italy)
According to the media, a fire destroyed the headquarters of Ugo Basile, a leader in the production of vivisection equipment, in Comerio (Varese). The fire started early in the morning on March 30 and gutted the 3-story building. There has been no claim of responsibility but police believe the fire was intentional.
*Ugo Basile has a North American branch in Schwenksville, PA.

ALF RUIN NOVARTIS EXECUTIVE'S CARS
reported by activists in Italy:
"26 March 2008 - Castelnuovo Berardenga (Siena)
Rino Rappuoli, Novartis global head of vaccine research, had his posh cars
covered with paint and paintstripper by the ALF. The action has been
claimed to aboveground goups linking Rappuoli to vivisection in the
Novartis Siena labs and Novartis involvement with HLS."

reported by activists in Germany:

SAWED, SHASHED AND CHOPPED
Activists have claimed responsibility for the destruction of eight hunting facilities in the district of Gifhorn since the beginning of the year. Beginning in January ( http://www.directaction.info/news_mar05_08.htm) when hunting towers were destroyed in Gravenhorst, additional hunting towers have been sawed and overturned, and one tower was set on fire, near the cities of Calberlah, Isenbüttel and Wasbüttel. The initials "ALF" were left behind in paint.
Activists in Germany have also reported that a hunting tower was destroyed in the city of Ahrensfelde on the night of March 19, and several others targeted in the Landkreis Bamberg district. Read the German communiques at http://www.tierbefreier.de/alf.
