Poland: woman march nationwide to demand abortion rights
Conservative party seeks to restrict the law
18 January, 10:20Hundreds took part in a march in Warsaw but it wasn't immediately clear how many took place in other cities. The turnout appeared far smaller than similar marches which mobilized huge crowds in 2016.
The march comes after lawmakers voted recently to refuse to consider a proposal to liberalize the abortion law and moved forward with a separate proposal to tighten the law. (ANSA-AP).
