Guerilla Warfare
 Is a kind of warfare whereby the strategically weaker side
takes the offensive by selecting the forms, times places of
battle. It is employed if, the start of the war, one side is too
weak to engage the enemy in regular warfare. It is resorted to
in order to harass and wear down the stronger opponent
while developing one’s own strength. It uses hit-and-run
tactics and relies on the elements of mobility, concealment
and surprise.
Factors that are certain for the
development of a strong guerilla
movement

Environment
 Includes not only geographical elements like terrain, climate,
roads, and communication facilities, and the location of town

religious belief.

 Is necessary for the procurement of supplies and for
obtaining information on enemy strength, activities, and
whereabouts.
