Utopix records 80+ feminicides in Venezuela in H1 2026; Zulia, Miranda lead

NGO Utopix documented over 80 feminicides in Venezuela in the first half of 2026, with Zulia and Miranda each reporting 12 cases, followed by Falcón, Carabobo, and Aragua with six each. The figures indicate a persistent pattern of gender-based violence, though data reliability is limited by underreporting and lack of official statistics. This underscores systemic impunity and public-health concerns in a context of state capacity erosion.
