68,000 Female Genital Mutilation Victims in Germany 😟
Channel: Atheist Republic
Date: 2020-07-08

The amount of women and girls in Germany who have undergone female genital mutilation (FGM) has increased to 68,000, the families minister announced Thursday. The increase, up 44% from the last estimated total calculated in 2017, was attributed to greater immigration from countries where FGM is more common. Minister Franziska Giffey called for new measures in local communities to prevent the number from rising further. The rise from 44,000 in 2017 was so large because of increased immigration from countries like Eritrea, Somalia, Indonesia, Egypt and Nigeria, Giffey said.
