A report from the Israel Observatory on Femicide (IOF) reveals that 20 women were killed for being women in Israel in 2024. The rate of femicide remained consistent with the previous year. The majority of cases involved victims who knew their attackers, with half of the suspects being the victims' husbands. The IOF also reported that 40% of the victims were Jewish, while around half were Arab Israelis. The report highlights the need for attention to the issue of femicide in Israeli society.
