Mujahideen Tactics in the Soviet-Afghan War - Bennett Park Raiders

CHAPTER 12
COUNTERAMBUSH
Counterambush is a tedious, time-consuming effort requiring
route planning, patrols, timely intelligence, counterambush drills
and flank security. Planning should ensure that alternate routes and
times of travel are used, that potential ambush sites are cleared and
that movement through areas is coordinated with local forces.
Movement details need to be safeguarded and deception measures
taken to prevent ambush.
