Riverine Warfare

Riverine warfare refers to military operations conducted in rivers and their surrounding areas, often as part of a broader amphibious warfare strategy. It involves the use of specialized vessels and troops to navigate waterways, secure ports, and engage in combat in areas where traditional land or naval forces may struggle. In this context, riverine operations are crucial for projecting power, ensuring supply lines, and conducting reconnaissance, often in environments that blend land and water. Effective riverine warfare requires coordination between naval and ground forces to achieve objectives in challenging terrains.
