text: Foundations of Counterinsurgency
  Restore Essential Services
  3-66. Provide projects such as wells to villages that support the government.
  Support to Economic and Infrastructure Development
  3-67. Provide economic stimuli such as the donation of a tractor or gasoline to villages that are neutral
  to increase their support for the government.
  Conduct Information Engagement
  3-68. Conduct information engagements to generate support for the HN government, highlight
  government victories and expose insurgent defeats and excesses.
  BORDER AREAS
  3-69. In addition to the typical external support, usually supplies, that an insurgent group may receive
  from across a border, insurgents may also establish sanctuary base camps and conduct cross-border
  operations from adjacent countries.
  3-70. Host nation police, customs, or paramilitary border forces should be responsible for border
  security. However, the guerrilla threat may force the military to conduct border operations, particularly
  in rural areas. US forces advise and assist Host Nation security forces to interdict the infiltration
  of insurgent personnel and materiel across international boundaries with the intent of isolating the
  insurgent forces from their external support and sanctuaries. Border operations normally require restrictive
  measures for tribal and ethnic groups who do not recognize the international boundary.
  3-71. Border operations require close coordination and cooperation between the armed forces,
  paramilitary forces, and government agencies involved. Physically sealing the border may be impossible,
  since doing so could increase the requirement for forces and materiel beyond available resources. Placing
  forces or barriers at every crossing and entry site may also be impossible. Commanders should prioritize
  where to place their forces or barriers.
  Routes
  3-72. Based on detailed terrain analysis and intelligence, commanders can determine infiltration
  and exfiltration routes, support sites, frequency and volume of traffic, type of transportation, number
  and type of personnel, amount and type of materiel, terrain and traffic conditions, and the probable location
  of base areas and sanctuaries. Continuous and detailed surveillance is required.
  Zones
  3-73. Restricted zones or friendly population buffer zones can be established if needed. Either of these
  operations, which could require relocating many persons, must be carefully planned. Although armed
  forces may assist, civil authorities normally are responsible for planning and carrying out a relocation
  program. Forced relocation is held to a minimum. The 1949 Geneva Conventions prohibit forced
  population resettlement unless there is clear military necessity.
  Restricted Zone
  3-74. This is a carefully selected area, varied in width and contiguous to the border. Authorities
  normally relocate all persons living in this zone. Authorities give public notice that they will regard all
  unauthorized individuals or groups encountered in the restricted zone as infiltrators or insurgents.
  Friendly Population Buffer Zone
  3-75. This is an area where only civilians believed to be loyal to the government live in the AO. The
  government relocates all persons whose loyalty it cannot establish. The government may use this operation
