Counter-guerrilla Operations

Counter-guerrilla operations refer to military strategies and tactics used to combat guerrilla warfare, especially in jungle environments. Guerrilla fighters often use the dense terrain to their advantage, employing hit-and-run tactics and hiding among the local population. Counter-guerrilla operations focus on intelligence gathering, disrupting supply lines, and winning local support to undermine the guerrillas. Troops might use special training in jungle survival, ambush techniques, and small unit tactics. The goal is to locate and neutralize guerrilla forces while minimizing civilian casualties and building trust with local communities to foster stability.
