Venezuela: 81 femicides in H1 2026, NGO says official data absent

NGO Utopix reports at least 81 femicides in Venezuela from January to June 2026, based on media and social media reports, warning the figure is an undercount due to lack of government data on gender-based violence. The concentration is highest in certain states, though details are truncated. This highlights persistent underreporting and institutional gaps in addressing violence against women.
