Supernova Remnants (SNRs) play essential roles in the dynamics of galaxies by injecting large amounts of energy which can accelerate particles generating cosmic radiation, create large, hot, low density bubbles, and maintain turbulent cloud motions. SNRs shock waves can also compress nearby dense clouds, inducing fragmentation and perhaps collapse into protostars, thus joining the extremes in the life-cycle of stars. The present review illustrates how high quality low frequencies radio observations of galactic SNRs and the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM), can help in the understanding of the many aspects of the nature of the remnants, as well as the consequences of their interaction with the ambient gas.
