Increase in Domestic Violence Reports in Greece Following New Police Offices Establishment
There has been a notable rise in domestic violence reports in Greece, particularly in the region of Chalkidiki, with incidents reported increasing from 114 in 2023 to 251 in 2024. This surge is attributed to the establishment of Domestic Violence Offices in police departments across the country, which provide victims with critical support services such as safe housing and access to emergency resources. Ongoing efforts focus on raising awareness and assisting victims of various forms of violence.
