Offensive Efforts: Maneuver, Fires, Special and Cyber Operations The use of offensive force during emergency and war for the two purposes and logics described above shall be based on the use of offensive force, by means of: maneuver, fire, special operations, along with defensive efforts, simultaneously and immediately, while using intelligence, Command and Control and network capabilities. The basic components of action shall be: a. Maneuver effort to the front and to the depth: offensive ground actions shall be carried out in a focused manner against centers of gravity, while striving to reach final maneuver lines as quickly as possible. Upon reaching the final maneuver lines, the forces shall act to stabilize the lines of defense and purify the area. b. Fire effort: use of campaign-level fire at a continuous rate and maximum power from the outset of the conflict in the front and in the depth. Use of fire shall be in accordance with the principles of proportionality and military advantage. Legitimacy considerations shall be secondary to the above. Management of ”war economy" and the use of various munitions, shall be a key factor of the planning of the use of the fire effort from the beginning of the combat. c. Special operations efforts. d. Cyber efforts during emergency and war shall support defensive and offensive efforts at all levels of warfare – strategic, operational and tactical. 20. Defensive Efforts a. Defense to prevent organizations that are in the focus of this document from making any territorial gains.13 This means protection from raids and complex attacks, including from the air and the marine domains. This defensive capability shall be based on: 1) Flexibility in the use of IDF forces within Israel's borders. 2) Reduction of civilian vulnerability (including evacuating civilians from threatened areas) within the border regions. 13 Prevention of the territorial gains shall be assessed at the end of the defensive combat.
