Exit Stage Left
It was not Police or Security at the embassy that prevented the break-in but it was Julian Assange himself who thwarted the intruder. Fearing for his own safety, Assange had crafted a makeshift booby-trap which caused a fire extinguisher to crash to the floor alerting the Wikileaks founder of the situation.
Joe Lauria of Consortium News penned an article about the most recent break-in attempt on October 29th, 2018. In the lead up to the 2016 elections, an intruder scaled the outside wall of the embassy before being spotted by embasssy security.
An attempted break-in at Julian Assange’s residence inside the Ecuadorian Embassy in London on Oct. 29, and the absence of a security detail, have increased fears about the safety of the WikiLeak’s publisher.
Lawyers for Assange have confirmed to activist and journalist Suzie Dawson that Assange was awoken in the early morning hours by the break-in attempt. They confirmed to Dawson that the attempt was to enter a front window of the embassy. A booby-trap Assange had set up woke him, the lawyers said.

Where's the Security?
24 Hour Surveillance / Tens of Millions in Taxpayer Money
Despite the fact that Julian Assange is under 24 hour surveillance with no less than 3 signal jammers and 18 electronic devices set-up surrounding the building to prevent any communication with the outside world, it took London Metropolitan Police 9 hours to respond after the attempted break-in at the Ecuadorian embassy.
Surely, the British police surveillance units must have been aware of the intrusion attempt. With the millions of pounds spent every year to fund high tech monitoring equipment aimed at preventing Assange from leaving the embassy they must have spotted and recorded the event and did nothing to intervene.
Concerned citizens responded to the event finding an absence of security at the front door.
Later on the day of the break-in, Sean O’Brien, a lecturer at Yale University Law School and a cyber-security expert, was able to enter the embassy through the front door, which was left open.
Inside he found no security present. Someone from the embassy emerged to tell him to send an email to set up an appointment with Assange. After emailing the embassy, personnel inside refused to check whether it had been received or not.
An even more distressing aspect of this attempted trespassing is the fact that Assange himself had to respond to this crisis do to the lack of security.
Julian Assange's health is deteriorating daily and is very likely unable to defend himself should he come under attack.
Grab Teams
Several months ago, night vision camera's filmed intelligent agency grab teams camped outside of the Ecuadorian embassy. Enhanced images appear to reveal members of the grab team reviewing operational procedures for abducting Assange.
As the title on the document suggests it seems to be outlining protocol for if any or all of the covert video feeds that monitor the activity at the Ecuadorian embassy went down. The term Op Kudo is of particular interest as according to Wikileaks it's the code name of the UK operation to grab/kidnap Julian Assange.
Threat to Julian's Safety
Considering the above, Julian Assange safety is in serious jeopardy. In response, the #Unity4J movement called an emergency online meeting to discuss the most recent threats faced by Julian Assange at the embassy. Activist and journalist Suzie Dawson (
Already, plans ar ein the works to increase support on the ground in London with a demonstration to be held, not at the embassy but at the famed Harrods department store every Saturday during the Christmas shopping seasons. Peaceful actions are scheduled to begin as early as tomorrow. A simple chant has been created by the #Unity4J movement.
Chant:
"We are banging pots & pans
'cos we won't let them kill this man."
