More than 50% of online images of child abuse reported to an internet watchdog can be traced to the US, a report says.

In the first six months of this year the IWF received more than 14,000 reports of suspected websites, a 24% increase on the first six months of 2005.

"The increase in reports processed could be attributed to a number of factors, including public intolerance of child abuse content online combined with increased awareness of our role in combating it," said Peter Robbins, chief executive of the IWF.

Of the reports, nearly 5,000 contained images of child abuse.

Of these nearly 2,500 were traced to the US and more than 730 to Russia.

CHILD ABUSE CONTENT
USA: 51.1%
Russia: 14/9%
Japan: 11.7%
Spain: 8.8%
Thailand: 3.6%
South Korea: 2.16%
UK: 0.2%
Other: 7.5%
