Suicide bombing has emerged as a highly lethal tactic used by non-state violent actors, leading to significantly higher casualties compared to other forms of violence. The motivations behind individuals becoming suicide bombers are complex and multifaceted, with no consensus among researchers.

The interplay between religion, particularly within Salafi Jihadi movements, and the adoption of suicide bombing is contentious, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of political contexts, such as Russia's Cold War trajectory.
