Hea teada
An ambush aims to stop, neutralize or destroy moving or temporarily halted enemy forces by maximizing the element of surprise, striking from concealed positions. Ambushes usually exploit carefully selected obstacles combined with indirect fires to prevent possible enemy counter-attacks or withdrawals. An ambush may also include a combination of long-range attacks by fire and assaults to close with and completely destroy the targeted enemy forces.
