Friendly_or_hostile

Two parties or individuals are on the same side or on different sides of a (typically military) conflict. The two sides may be expressed jointly as the Sides, or separately as Side_1 and Side_2. We received a tip from a friendly local about a possible attack. DNI Infiltration from hostile forces is a constant threat. DNI In many cases only Side_1 is mentioned, leaving Side_2 as the perspective from whom the description is being given (typically the speaker/writer).
