Armed insurgency

Armed insurgency refers to a movement where a group uses weapons and force to resist or overthrow an established government or authority. Insurgents often seek political, social, or economic changes and may engage in violent tactics, such as attacks or sabotage, aiming to gain control or influence over a region. These movements can arise from grievances like oppression, lack of representation, or economic hardship. Insurgencies often lead to prolonged conflicts, impacting civilian populations and raising complex moral, legal, and humanitarian issues in the affected areas.
