Párrafo
Paragraph text
An estimated 526,000 people die violently every year; in the large majority of cases, in non-conflict settings. Young males are at high risk of becoming the victims of homicide owing to their participation in street fighting, street crime, gang membership, possession of arms and other violence-prone activities. Women and girls are predominantly targeted by intimate and gender-based violence and in many nations family-related homicide is the major cause of female deaths.
