A new wave of protest against the abortion ban in Poland began on October 22, 2020.
Protests have been taking place in Polish cities for the third night in a row following the introduction of a near-total ban on abortion. Abortion is allowed only in cases of rape or incest or when the pregnancy threatens the life of the mother.
Demonstrators have defied coronavirus restrictions.
On October 30, Warsaw hosted a large-scale demonstration of those
who support the abolition of the ban on abortion. Public transport supports the protesters. The tram board reads: "Women, we are with you!".
The action was attended by up to 100 thousand people, 37 were detained.
