International Cat Torture Ring Uncovered: Animals Adopted and Abused

An international cat torture ring has been uncovered, with thousands of members exchanging horrific material via encrypted applications. The ring, active worldwide, circulates videos of cat torture and killings.
According to the BBC, British users were discussing how to adopt kittens from animal welfare organizations for the purpose of mutilating them. The revelation comes days before the sentencing of two teenagers in London for torturing and killing cats.
The activist group 'Feline Guardians' reports that from May 2023 to May 2024, a new cat torture video was published every 14 hours. The first videos appeared in China in 2023.
Authorities are investigating whether the teenagers in London are connected to the wider network.
