France inscribes the right to abortion in its constitution as world marks International Women's Day

France has officially added the guaranteed right to abortion to its constitution, making it the first country to explicitly ensure abortion rights in its national charter. The amendment was sealed by Justice Minister Eric Dupond-Moretti at a special ceremony on International Women's Day, using a 19th-century printing press. The move was overwhelmingly supported by French lawmakers and is seen as a significant step for women's rights.
