A man entered the home of a lesbian woman in Orán and attempted to kill her by stabbing her 7 times, according to the feminist collective PANAMBI. Fortunately, the woman was able to defend herself and, thanks to her instincts, she is alive. This incident has caused pain and anger among the members of PANAMBI, who believe that the attack was not random but specifically directed against a lesbian woman and mother in the city. There is concern about the lack of protection in which women in the northern province find themselves.
In Salta, the attack on a woman due to her sexual orientation highlights the vulnerability to which individuals are exposed. Cases of extreme violence and discrimination have significantly increased in a sociopolitical context that promotes hate speech against women, particularly against lesbians and transgender individuals. It is crucial to identify these attacks as attempts of lesbophobia and to demand that they do not go unpunished.
The collective PANAMBI has called for a prompt investigation of this hate crime to achieve justice. The victim received 7 stab wounds and survived thanks to her bravery and resilience. PANAMBI's statement expresses concern for the safety of women in the region, noting that this attack is part of a series of violent episodes against women in Argentina. The struggle against discrimination and gender-based violence remains a priority in society.
