The Rhodesian Bush War had intensified in scale by the mid 1970s. Prime Minister of Rhodesia Ian Smith addressed the nation on the evening of 6 February 1976, warning that "a new terrorist offensive has begun and, to defeat it, Rhodesians will have to face heavier military commitments." Mozambique formally declared a state of war with Rhodesia a month later, on 3 March. With security force reports indicating that around 1,000 fighters were active within Rhodesia, with a further 15,000 encamped in various states of readiness in Mozambique, after planning for a defence several Rhodesian operational zones were created one of those being designated for Operations Repulse, handling the south-east and west, from impending insurgent incursions.
