The Ramadan Offensive was a series of insurgent attacks against Coalition and Iraqi military targets from the end of October and during much of November 2003. The attacks are called the Ramadan Offensive because they were conducted during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The number of insurgent attacks increased during this period mainly because of the belief among the insurgent forces that fighting a foreign occupation force during Islam's holy month puts a believer especially close to God.

  • Ofensiva do Ramadã de 2003 foi uma série de ataques insurgentes no Iraque contra alvos militares da Coalizão entre o final de outubro e durante grande parte de novembro de 2003. Os ataques ocorreram durante o mês sagrado muçulmano do Ramadã. O número de ataques insurgentes aumentou durante este período principalmente por causa da crença entre as forças insurgentes de que lutar contra uma força de ocupação estrangeira durante o mês sagrado do Islã coloca um crente especialmente próximo a Deus.
