Anti-Guerrilla Operations

Anti-guerrilla operations refer to military strategies and tactics employed to combat guerrilla fighters, who typically engage in unconventional warfare, using hit-and-run tactics and blending in with civilian populations. These operations aim to disrupt guerrilla activities, gather intelligence, secure territory, and win the support of local communities. They can involve direct combat, psychological operations, and civic action programs to undermine the guerrillas’ influence and strengthen government authority. Success often relies on understanding the local context and addressing the underlying social, political, or economic issues that give rise to guerrilla movements.
