A group of antifascists vandalised the Church of the Holy Johns in Spain with graffiti and posted a video of the act on social media.
On 12 March, the group “Antifa_Ultras,” which describes itself as an “international Antifa collective,” shared footage on X (Twitter) showing the vandalism. The church wall was spray-painted with the words “Euskal Herria,” a slogan associated with Basque separatism and frequently used in radical left milieus. Such contexts have, in some cases, been linked to hostility towards Christian symbols and institutions, particularly where these are perceived as aligned with historical or political authority structures.
The video was accompanied by the caption “Anti-fascist, anti-Zionist: Euskal Herria,” suggesting an ideological framing that situates the attack within a broader radical left and separatist narrative, in which religious sites may be targeted as perceived symbols of opposition.
