In a tragic week for Berlin, two women have been fatally stabbed in separate incidents, both suspected to be femicides.

The first victim, a 36-year-old mother of four, was allegedly killed by her ex-husband in Zehlendorf, while a 28-year-old woman was murdered in Friedrichsfelde, reportedly by her former partner.

These brutal acts have prompted a strong response from political leaders, with Berlin's Justice Senator Felor Badenberg and Federal Family Minister Lisa Paus calling for urgent reforms.

They emphasize the need for enhanced protective measures for women, including the potential use of electronic ankle monitors for offenders.

The incidents highlight a growing concern over violence against women in Germany, with calls for comprehensive legislative changes to prevent such tragedies.
