Guerilla warfare strategies

Guerrilla warfare refers to a type of combat where smaller, mobile groups of fighters use unconventional tactics to oppose a larger, traditional military force. Strategies include hit-and-run attacks, ambushes, sabotage, and blending in with the local population. Guerrilla fighters often avoid direct confrontation, relying instead on surprise, speed, and knowledge of the terrain. This approach aims to weaken the enemy through attrition and to earn local support. Historically used by insurgents and resistance movements, guerrilla warfare can effectively challenge more powerful forces, often prolonging conflicts and ultimately shifting the balance of power.
