The data presented at the event point to the need for continuous prevention, better identification of victims and an effective response by the competent institutions.<\/p>\n<p>According to these data, ASTRA received 1,900 calls in 2026 and was in contact with more than 50 potential victims of human trafficking. Of these, 23 people were identified as victims of trafficking, and another 27 as people at high risk. Among them were 31 foreign nationals, and the largest number of cases in that group was linked to labour exploitation.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-13760\" src=\"https:\/\/evropskakuca.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG-20261016-WA0000-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evropskakuca.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG-20261016-WA0000-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/evropskakuca.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG-20261016-WA0000-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/evropskakuca.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG-20261016-WA0000-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/evropskakuca.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG-20261016-WA0000-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/evropskakuca.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/IMG-20261016-WA0000.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Seksualna eksploatacija \u017eena i devoj\u010dica i dalje je dominantan oblik trgovine ljudima.
