Somalia has witnessed a “massive” rise in female genital mutilation (FGM) as girls are kept home from school due to lockdown restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic, a report said Monday.
The charity Plan International, which advocates for children’s rights and equal opportunities for girls, said so-called circumcisers are going door to door offering to cut girls unable to venture outside.
The lockdown, which coincided with the Muslim month of Ramadan, when the ritual is traditionally performed, has undermined efforts to eradicate the practice in Somalia. About 98 percent of women and girls there already have undergone FGM, the highest rate in the world, the charity said.

Too much time on my hands.
What do you expect from immoral savages? Just look at what’s in our Congress—married to her brother, having an extramarital affair, funneling campaign money to her lover, attacking Jews and Israel at every turn, criticizing our government at every turn—another immoral savage. And back in the home country, a nation of vicious pirates. Tell me-—why does the world even need Somalia?
immoral savages-—CONgress. Redundant?
We should send her to Somalia on a fact finding mission and see what pops off...err, I mean pops up.

LOL. Exactly.
Using “massive uptick” and “female genital mutilation” in the same sentence, is probably not good journalistic phrasing.
Hard to have a “massive rise” in something when you’re already at 90%, at least according to what I last heard regarding Somalia.
But here’s a related question: Are American doctors permitted to report evidence of that procedure having been performed on American women (typically immigrants, when they go back home to the ‘old country’ for summer ‘vacation’), or is it still considered anti-Islamic (even though it predates Islam)?
Miracle Cure...
“Uptick” is a decidedly poor choice of a word for the deed.
Well obviously you cant solve one without the other.../rolling eyes
This is a horrible treatment of young women. Nothing heard from the female liberation side.
What about Ilhan Omar? I ask in the name of Science.
They should cut their own bangs and leave helpless children alone!
Or “sees”, either
America needs MORE of this diversity
I’m bored, let’s mutilate our daughter, that ought to be good for a few laughs...
So glad that they slaughtered Americans who tried to help them and that we import the third world savages. It is so refreshing that they now hold political power.
