Answer
This kind of disaster occurs in the event of a terror strike, either through the use of explosives, guns, or chemical and biological weapons. Most of these disasters are brought about by misdirected elements who think that social, political, or religious goals can be achieved by killing people. Terrorists also hijack planes and destroy public infrastructure, such as railway tracks and bridges, to cause massive devastation. The attack on the World Trade Center in the $US$ on $11$ September $2001$, when terrorists hijacked planes to spread terror, resulted in nearly $3,000$ deaths. The most destructive terror attacks in India include the attack on Parliament on $13$ December $2001$, and the Mumbai attacks on $26$ November $2008$.
