The federation of women’s shelters (FMHF) is raising alarm bells about a series of violent crimes against women recently and is hoping governments work to take action to prevent future violence as deconfinement begins.

Saturday morning, a 29-year-old woman wound up in the hospital in critical condition after what police are saying is likely a case of domestic assault.

It is far from the first case of violence against women in recent weeks.
