Method: News published in 19 online newspapers was analyzed by using the Google Search Engine in a retrospectivedescriptive design. The data were evaluated based on variables such as the age of the victims, marital status, family type, place of murder, cause and manner of murder, and the relationship of the perpetrators with the victims. Data were analyzed using SPSS 24. Results: We found that most femicides occurred in 2020, were committed by husbands (34.2 degrees/x) using firearms (43.3 degrees/x), and were driven by arguments (45.5 degrees/x). Victims were predominantly 20-40 years old, married, and housewives. Conclusion: In order to prevent violence against women, it is important to raise social awareness, strengthen legal regulations and develop protective policies. Although the findings provide insight into the media visibility and demographic trends of femicides in T & uuml;rkiye, they need to be supported by more comprehensive epidemiological studies.en10.1590/1980-220X-REEUSP-2025-0080eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHomicidePeriodicalViolence Against WomenNewsNursingArticle2-s2.0-105022231093
