The most spectacular act of sabotage was the interruption of all telegraphic and telephone communications in Albania in June and July 1942. Although the communist activity was increasing, the main concern for Italians were the northern bands. The Italians had given up on governing Northern Albania. The security posts composed of gendarmes in Northern Albania were mostly concerned for their own security and rarely ventured themselves outside their posts, and convoys along the roads were to be accompanied by strong Italian military detachments.<sup id="cite_ref-Publisher_C._Hurst_p._128-29_12-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Publisher_C._Hurst_p._128-29-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Conference_of_Pezë"><span id="Conference_of_Pez.C3.AB"></span>Conference of Pezë</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=National_Liberation_Movement_(Albania)&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Conference of Pezë"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6d/Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG/175px-Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG" decoding="async" width="175" height="233" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6d/Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG/263px-Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6d/Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG/350px-Mother_Albania_Tirana_2.JPG 2x" data-file-width="2304" data-file-height="3072" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Mother_Albania" class="mw-redirect" title="Mother Albania">Mother Albania</a>.

In the conference the Communist Party of Albania invited all the Albanian resistance leaders to create a national resistance front. The Communist Party saw the creation of this front as a necessity for Albania. Its intention was to dominate this front, although some figures within the Albanian Communist Party opposed the idea of an organised front with other nationalists, fearing their possible betrayal.<sup id="cite_ref-Publisher_C._Hurst_p._128-29_12-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Publisher_C._Hurst_p._128-29-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The conference decided to create the General Council which was composed of 10 people: seven communists including <a href="/wiki/Mustafa_Gjinishi" title="Mustafa Gjinishi">Mustafa Gjinishi</a>, <a href="/wiki/Enver_Hoxha" title="Enver Hoxha">Enver Hoxha</a>, and known nationalists like <a href="/wiki/Abaz_Kupi" title="Abaz Kupi">Abaz Kupi</a>, <a href="/wiki/Myslim_Peza" class="mw-redirect" title="Myslim Peza">Myslim Peza</a> and <a href="/wiki/Baba_Faja_Martaneshi" title="Baba Faja Martaneshi">Baba Faja Martaneshi</a>. <a href="/wiki/Mehdi_Frash%C3%ABri" title="Mehdi Frashëri">Mehdi Frashëri</a> was the honorary president of the conference, a fact suppressed later by the communist history.<sup id="cite_ref-Elsie2010_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Elsie2010-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The General Council would supervise local liberation councils.

Every partisan unit, no matter how large or small, had a command of four individuals. The role of the commissar was, among others, to guarantee that the activities of the partisan unit would comply with the directives of the Communist Party. Other duties of the commissar included keeping the partisans up to date with the latest political developments, serve as the official representatives of the National Liberation Front in dealings with national liberation councils and civilians, and as leader of the communist members of the partisan unit.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Communist Party oriented the activities of the National Liberation Army through its various organizations inside the army.

They were planned for every larger village or one for two-to-three villages together. Their function was to protect the liberated zones and to serve as a source of replenishment for the regular partisan units.
