1. act of terrorism

   An act of terrorism is the use or threat of violence, often against civilians, by an individual, organization, or state, with the intention of causing fear, intimidation or coercion, in pursuit of political, religious, ideological, or socioeconomic objectives. It is typically characterized by its indiscriminate nature, the intention to create a public spectacle, and disregard for laws of warfare or human rights. Such acts are often carried out by non-state actors and are considered a crime under international law.
