In Poland, protests continue following a constitutional court ruling that banned almost all forms of abortion.

Warsaw, October 28 (RHC)-- In Poland, protests continue following a constitutional court ruling last week that banned almost all forms of abortion, tightening anti-choice laws that were already among the most restrictive in Europe. 

Demonstrators took to the streets this week, blocking public transit and streets in one of Warsaw’s richest neighborhoods.  One organizer of the protests said: “The truth is that there is going to be a chain of illegal, underground abortions now, which means that a lot of them will be conducted in inhumane conditions, completely devastating conditions.”

Meanwhile, lawmakers opposing the near-total ban on abortion led a protest inside the Polish Parliament, wearing T-shirts and masks with a lightning bolt symbol representing the Women’s Strike movement.
