Germany recorded 308 women and girls killed last year, most of them by current or former partners or family members. Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt, Family Minister Karin Prien, and Federal Criminal Police Office President Holger Münch presented the figures on Friday (21 November), based on police crime statistics. While the number of killings decreased by 32 compared to 2023 (from 340 to 308), other forms of violence against women—including domestic, sexual, and digital violence—have increased.
