The Minister of Internal Affairs, Besfort Lamallari, has published preliminary data from the crime report for the first half of 2026, according to which 18 intentional murders have been recorded in Albania.
Through a post on social media, Lamallari published a comparative graph of intentional homicide cases from 2005 to 2026, stating that the country has reached the lowest historical level of this indicator.
"From an average of 49 intentional homicides in the decade 2005-2014, today we have dropped to only 18 cases, to historical lows, while the average for the last decade has more than halved to 23.4 cases," Lamallari emphasizes.
According to the minister, the decrease in the number of intentional homicides is related to the reforms undertaken by the government, support for the State Police and investments in the field of security.
"This is by no means a coincidence, but a result of the Albanian government's reforms, including the support and results of the work of the State Police, the investments we have made, and the determination not to back down in the fight against crime," he emphasizes.
In the same reaction, Lamallari also touched on the "Smart City" project, whose command and control center was inaugurated the day before. According to him, the use of artificial intelligence, intelligent cameras and sensors for detecting gunshots aims to increase capacities for preventing and combating crime.
