In the Sicilian, White has a number of typical ways to start an attack against the Black king. One of the most famous is the so-called "bayonet attack" in which White storms forward with his kingside pawns to shatter the black pawn structure at its base: White plays g2-g4-g5-g6 to attack the pawn on f7 to weaken Black's pawn on e6. If White can play g5-g6 and manages to put pressure on Black's position, the attack will follow naturally.
Studying such attacking patterns enhances one's understanding of typical structures.
In the diagram position, White has already advanced his pawns on the kingside. But White's rook on h1 is unprotected and g5-g6 seems to be impossible. Or can White make it work?
