Suicide attacks

Suicide attacks are deliberate acts of violence where an individual, often intentionally, harms or kills themselves while targeting others, usually to cause fear, destruction, or political change. Attackers may carry explosives or weapons, and their goal is often to maximize impact since they sacrifice their own life in the process. These attacks are typically associated with extremist groups and are used as a tactic to attract attention, destabilize societies, or undermine governments. Understanding such attacks involves recognizing their complex motivations, psychological factors, and the security challenges they pose globally.
