In this article, researchers Salameh, Salameh, Shwaiki, and Abder-Rahman, all from the University of Jordan, take a unique approach and analyze femicide committed by individuals known to the victim and compare them with femicides committed by non-intimates/non-family members. Specifically, the authors attempt to understand how three types of femicide ("so-called honour killings," "fatal intimate partner violence," and "domestic violence committed by male family members other than the husband") differ from those involving perpetrators in "non-gendered situations," such as those committed during robberies. Their findings show that femicides are most commonly committed by intimate partners or family members and firearms are the most commonly used weapon, regardless of the victim-perpetrator relationship.
