The most recent report of the Italian Ministry of the Interior reveals that between January and July 2023, 195 homicides were committed in Italy. The number of homicides was lower compared to the previous years. Overall, about 2.3 million criminal acts were reported in Italy in 2022.
Femicide
Femicide, a homicide in which a woman is killed for gender-based reasons, poses a serious problem around the world. In 2018, roughly one in six Italians believed that femicide was on the rise. Women, victims of homicide, are often related to the culprit; in 2017, 14 women of around ten million female inhabitants in Italy were killed by their partner.
