Summary/Abstract: The Territorial Defense Forces’ combat operations carried out for the benefit of the operational troops will create a hardly permeable network of resistance points (defense zones), which will allow slowing down and ultimately stopping the enemy. However, to perform this task, the TDF operation principles and features when organizing the fight should be borne in mind. Apart from that, they must organize their effective system of reconnaissance, anti-landing, and anti-diversion activities, both in their offensive and protective-defensive forms. They will organize resistance points (defense zones) in specific combat environments as for network defense activities. In the first stage of the defense operation, they will take part in cover operations.
