insurgency movements

Insurgency movements are organized efforts by groups seeking to challenge or overthrow established governments or authorities. They often involve guerrilla tactics, such as sabotage, ambushes, and covert operations, to weaken the ruling power and gain support. These movements can stem from political, social, or economic grievances and typically aim for broader change rather than immediate control. Insurgencies may blend military actions with efforts to influence public opinion, making them complex conflicts that evolve over time. They differ from regular armies because they usually operate clandestinely and rely on local support to sustain their activities.
