You use the word "hostilities" which to most people means actual war.
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and The United States Of America never came into direct military conflict. They did not actually fight each other, ever.
What they did do was to use other countries to fight for them, as surrogates, or stand-ins. This happened in Korea, and in Viet Nam, and in Laos, and in Cambodia. Another example was the use of spies, to try to learn the military secrets of the other side's plans and new weapon systems. Again the use of surrogates was common.
The term "Cold War" is used to describe the period from 1949 to 1990, when the two world super powers were face to face and threatening the whole world with total destruction. The combined Atomic and Nuclear weapons of the USA and the USSR would have killed man kind, and burned the earth to cinders. Total combined mass murder.
