This is reflected in the new 'Report on the Evolution of Hate Crimes' of the Ministry of the Interior, a statistical balance that is prepared annually and whose objective is to be an x-ray of this criminal phenomenon as a starting point for a better response in the fight hate crime.
By typology, the area that registered the highest number of crimes in 2019 was that of “ideology”, as 596 had been counted, with a percentage increase of 1.9% compared to the previous year. However, the hate crime that increased the most was “racism / xenophobia”, with an increase of 20.9%, going from 426 in 2018 to 515 in 2019.
The other two areas that increased the most during 2019 were "sexual orientation and gender identity", at 8.6% (278 crimes and hate incidents in that year), and "people with disabilities" rose 4% (standing at 26 counted cases).
These data are joined by the 5 hate crimes or incidents registered for "antisemitism", the 12 for "aporophobia", the 66 for "religious beliefs or practices", the 69 for "discrimination based on sex / gender", 9 for "generational discrimination" and 8 for "discrimination based on illness".
