Conventional warfare

Conventional war is a kind of war where countries fight each other using conventional weapons and battle plans. The armies on both sides are clear and use weapons mainly to attack the other side’s soldiers. It does not use special weapons like chemical, biological, radioactive, or nuclear weapons.^[1][2]

The main goal of normal war is to make the other side’s army weaker or destroy it so they cannot fight back. But sometimes, one or both sides may use different, unexpected ways of fighting to win.^[1][2]
