Guerrilla Warfare Theory

Guerrilla warfare theory involves small, mobile groups using surprise attacks, ambushes, and hit-and-run tactics against larger, conventional forces. It relies on intimate knowledge of the local terrain, strong community support, and psychological impact to weaken the enemy over time. This approach is often used by weaker forces to offset disadvantages in firepower and resources, aiming to exhaust and undermine the opponent’s morale and strength through prolonged, asymmetric conflict rather than direct confrontation.
