Answer 1

The correct option is C Yes, a war is a conflict between two sovereign states, whereas terrorist groups do not engage with the armed forces of the country.

Terrorism is different from war.
War is a conflict between two or more sovereign states, whereas terrorist groups do not look to engage with the military of a country directly. They aim to challenge a regime in a country or acknowledge the existence of the state.
