Paramilitaries:*
*
Frequently civilians on either side in the Yugoslav civil war, or in the*
later war in Kosovo, would and together and form militias or paramilitary*
organisations to defend their homes and villages, and to attack the *
opposing side.*
*
These forces were equipped with whatever they could find, and never had*
heavy weapons, and seldom medium machineguns or mortars, unless supplied*
from outside or captured from the regular army.*
