Counterattacks are military tactics in which a defending force attempts to regain lost ground or to neutralize an offensive by launching an attack against the opponent. They are typically intended to throw the attacking force off balance, regain the initiative, and inflict damage on the enemy. Counterattacks can be executed at various levels, from small skirmishes to large-scale offensives, and are a critical component in the art of war.
