- Cross border anti-terrorist raids
Nature
Governments send military or paramilitary units into the territory of other nations to kill or kidnap individuals believed to be involved in terrorist activities.
Background
Cross border military operations gained global prominence in the 20th century, particularly during the Cold War, as states increasingly justified incursions into neighboring territories for security or counterinsurgency. The 1979 Soviet intervention in Afghanistan and repeated cross-border actions in Africa and the Middle East highlighted the phenomenon’s complexity. International concern intensified with the rise of non-state actors and shifting norms, prompting debates on sovereignty, legality, and humanitarian impact in forums such as the United Nations.
Incidence
South Africa and Israel admit the use of this method to control terrorists.
