Anticommunist armed resistance
Armed resistance was a form of opposition that manifested itself during the second part of the 1940s and the 1950s, when several groups of partisans were created on the territory of the entire country, which undertook armed fighting against the communist regime. Although acting under the most severe conditions, the resistance movement managed to survive for a relatively long period, indeed almost a decade and half. At its end, most of its members were killed in confrontations with security troops, arrested, convicted to hard years in prison or executed.
