Guerra asimétrica

Guerra asimétrica, or asymmetric warfare, refers to conflicts where one side has significantly different military power, resources, or strategies than the other. Typically, weaker groups use unconventional tactics—such as guerrilla attacks, sabotage, or cyber warfare—to challenge stronger, traditional forces. This imbalance makes direct confrontation difficult for the powerful side, leading them to adapt to unconventional methods. Asymmetric warfare often occurs in conflicts involving insurgents, terrorist groups, or rebel movements against established states, complicating military responses and often blurring the lines between combatants and civilians.
