26 November 2025

Elimination 261125.jpg

In Israel, more than 200,000 women are affected by abuse, and according to the World Health Organization, the real number may be up to four times higher due to underreporting. It has been proven that cases of abuse occur across all segments of the population, regardless of education level, profession, income, or community.
