About the Book

EN: Based on extensive field work, this book analyzes how ISIS - a widely hated, massively outnumbered, and ludicrously outgunned organization - managed to occupy over 120 cities, towns, and villages from the Southern Philippines to Western Libya. Seeking to understand ISIS's combat effectiveness, Omar Ashour focuses on the military and tactical innovations of ISIS and their predecessors in Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Egypt. The author explains how their capacity to mix conventional military tactics with innovative guerrilla warfare and urban terrorism strategies allowed ISIS to expand and endure beyond expectations. This Ukrainian translation is supplemented by a special introduction on Russia's war against Ukraine and the ISIS tactics adoption by Russian troops (2014-2022). UA: Ґрунтуючись на значній кількості польових досліджень, автор аналізує, як ІДІЛ, така ненависна, нечисельна та погано озброєна організація, змогла окупувати понад 120 міст, містечок і сіл від південних Філіппін до західної Лівії. Прагнучи зрозуміти боєздатність ІДІЛ, Омар Ашур аналізує військові та тактичні інновації ІДІЛу та їхніх попередників в Іраку, Сирії, Лівії та Єгипті. Автор пояснює, як поєднання конвенційної та партизанської війни, а також стратегій міського тероризму дозволили ІДІЛ розширитися та вистояти попри всі обставини. Український переклад доповнено спеціальним вступом про війну Росії проти України та застосування російськими військами тактик ІДІЛ (2014-2022).
