Unfortunately, they have happened more than once in the history of mankind and continue to happen today. They are committed by a group of people who have decided to die together at the same time in the same place or in different parts of the world, but at the same time. When it comes to mass suicides, it mainly concerns religious communities or cults, but there are cases when people decide to do this in order not to fall into the hands of enemies.
