Today, October 10th, is Global Day of Action for Palestine, where people and organisations across the world will unite under the banner ‘End the Genocide, Defend the Land.’
Three years into Israel’s genocide, at least 74,000 Palestinians have been killed. At least 21,000 of those killed are children. Since the so-called ‘ceasefire’ took effect one year ago, Israel has violated it almost daily, with attacks that have killed over 1000 people since October 10th 2025. Under the constant bombardment, 82% of buildings in the Gaza strip have been damaged or destroyed. Entire neighbourhoods have been wiped out, while 94% of medical facilities are either completely or partially unable to operate. At the same time, state-backed settler violence, land seizures and displacement of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank has increased.
In the midst of these ongoing horrors, Chemring Nobel wants to build Europe’s largest explosives factory here in Hurummarka. Explosives produced by Chemring Nobel are used in the US produced Hellfire-missile, which are widely used against Palestinians by the Zionist entity. Chemring Nobel has also secured themselves a twelve year agreement with the German company Diehl Defence last year. Diehl cooperates closely with the Israeli weapons industry.
We are here in the AFS standing in the way of Chemring’s death factory. We refuse to allow the never ending expansion of the war machine. We know that the only way to end the genocide is to take direct action against the mechanisms that supply it. We are nature defending itself.
On this Global Day of Action, we invite you to join us in our struggle here in the forest. End the genocide, free Palestine, Knus Krigsmaskinen!
