International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Terrorism

The International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Terrorism is a treaty that aims to prevent and combat terrorism by encouraging countries to cooperate legally and criminally. It defines certain terrorist acts—such as bombings, hijackings, or attacks targeting civilians—and establishes measures for investigation, prosecution, and extradition. The convention seeks to unite nations in their effort to hold accountable those who commit acts of terror, reduce safe havens, and promote international collaboration to thwart terrorism and protect global security.
