The Bajoran Resistance was a global resistance movement on Bajor during the Occupation of Bajor by the Cardassian Union. The Resistance made constant raids on Cardassian forces, and was eventually successful in regaining the independence of Bajor. Kira Nerys was a member of the Bajoran Resistance. (DS9: "Emissary")

The Cardassian military leaders regarded the Bajoran Resistance as terrorists and did not hesitate to executed Bajoran civilians when a resistance cell performed a raid in which Cardassians were killed.

The Bajoran resistance was divided into cells which were generally made up of approximately ten to twenty resistance fighters. These cells had their own area of operations and complete autonomy in what and when to attack a target. Because of this decentralized structure it was very difficult for Cardassian forces to find the resistance and destroy it. Another advantage of this cell structure was that if resistance fighters were captured they could not compromise the security of the entire Resistance, because they simply did not know who the members were. Each cell was named after their leader, the most infamous cell was the Shakaar Resistance Cell.

The moral issue of attacking Cardassian installations in which Bajorans were working was solved by seeing these Bajorans as collaborators. They were after all working with the enemy and anyone who was not fighting with the Resistance was fighting against them. (DS9: "When It Rains...")

After the Occupation of Bajor ended Resistance members had to adapt to normal life. Some of them went to be farmers and others where offered positions in the Bajoran Provisional Government or Bajoran Militia.
