The Project
We raise funds to support the activists of the Knus Krigsmaskinen-occupation in Hurummarka, and the resistance against ChemringNobels planned weapons factory. The funds will cover crucial costs for the activists on site, including food, tools, or building materials; but also for potential legal costs or penalties for individuals.
Background
Since the fall of 2024 the Norwegian Ministry of (so-called) Defence and Chemring Nobel have collaborated on the development of a new factory to produce even more explosives for military use. If they get their way, the planned factory will be Europe’s largest explosives factory and it will only further Chemring Nobel’s poisonous impact on the land, fjord and climate, as well as their complicity in bloody wars and genocide. It will have irreversible impacts on the ecosystem in Hurummarka, that is home to a large number of red-listed species.
The resistance against this planned factory has been strong for several years. On April 2nd this year, Knus Krigsmaskinen (Smash the war machine) established an Actively Defended Zone (Aktivt Forsvart Sone – AFS) in an abandoned military barrack in Avgrunnsdalen, Hurummarka - furthering and supporting the longstanding local efforts to defend Hurummarka.
Recently, updated plans for the factory suggest to expropriate an area three times larger than the initial proposal, resulting in even greater ecosystem erosion, human suffering and loss of important habitats.
Show your solidarity, support the resistance and join the fight against the war machine!
