Almost twice as many women are being killed in the Mexican city of Tijuana this year, with the country's National System of Public Safety releasing figures illustrating the soaring of violent crimes on the bordering city.

The agency said that the amount of women killed in the first half of the year was practically the same that the figure for all of 2023, a pace they have never seen before. Concretely, 18 femicide investigations were opened in the city until June, compared to 20 for all of last year.
