Terrorism

Terrorism is the use of violence, intimidation, or threats to instill fear or coerce individuals, communities, or governments, typically for political, ideological, or religious purposes. It often targets civilians and aims to achieve objectives through psychological impact, disrupting societal order or drawing attention to specific issues. Terrorist acts can include bombings, shootings, kidnappings, and other violent actions, and may be carried out by individuals, groups, or state actors. The definition of terrorism can vary based on legal, political, and social contexts, but it generally involves the intentional use of violence to create a climate of fear and to propagate a specific agenda.
