Search Results - Blockade

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A blockade is an effort to cut off the communications of a particular area by force. It is distinct from a siege in that a blockade is usually directed at an entire country or region, rather than a fortress or city. Also, a blockade historically took place at sea, with the blockading power seeking to cut off all maritime transport from and to the blockaded country. Stopping all land transport to and from an area may also be considered a blockade.

Blockades are often partial, with the object of denying the other side its major form of communication or access to key resources.

Close patrol of a hostile port, in order to prevent naval forces from putting to sea, is also referred to as a blockade. When a coastal city or fortress was besieged from the landward side, the besiegers would often blockade the seaward side as well.

In the twentieth century, blockades sometimes included stopping all air traffic within the blockaded area. Most recently, blockades have sometimes included cutting off electronic communications by jamming radio signals and severing undersea cables.
