False Flag Operation

False Flag Operation is one of the two choices in the fourth mission of the Nod campaign of Tiberian Dawn.

Background
In Africa, civil wars are not uncommon, and the Mao in Chad is no exception. In the initial stages of the First Tiberium War, at least two villages in Mao were engaged in a ruthless civil war, one of them allied with the Brotherhood of Nod and the other with the Global Defense Initiative. In order to ensure the victory of their side in the war and check Nod influence, GDI armed and supplied their supporting side which led to the escalation of the conflict as Nod reinforced it's own side.

Events
The Brotherhood moved a strike force in the area, consisting of a squad of minigunners and rocket infantry, a few buggies and some recon bikes, which supplemented by the meagre firepower of the villagers fought against the GDI presence in the area. They proceeded to overrun and destroy the opposing village, massacring their enemies.

Aftermath
With their supporters saved and their enemies exterminated Nod forces were able to recruit their supporters into their forces in Chad. Along with the Convoy Interception which saw the extermination of GDI supporting populations in another region, it paved the way for Nod's swift takeover of that formerly neutral country.
