This week a drone will airdrop medical abortion pills to Polish women unable to legally terminate pregnancies.

Reported by The Telegraph, now drones are being sent to murder unborn children:

A drone carrying medical abortion pills is set to fly to Poland, where abortion is severely restricted for women.

The ‘abortion drone’ is being sent by not-for-profit organisation Women on Waves – which provides medical abortion pills around the world – in a bid to help Polish women “terminate their pregnancies safely”. Normally the company sends the pills by post, after women have placed their orders online, but this is the first time it has used the unorthodox method of delivery by drone.

On Saturday, it will drop a number of packages of World Health Organisation-approved abortion pills over a Polish town on the border of Germany, where it will be met by women’s groups who will hand the pills to individual women who need them.

…

Rebecca Gomperts, founder and director of Dutch-based organisation Women on Waves, said the ‘abortion drone’ will help women practically, as well as raise awareness about inequality in abortion laws throughout Europe.

Abortions are available ‘on request’ to women in most European countries, though certain conditions must be met in Cyprus, Finland, Luxembourg, Portugal, Spain and the UK.

Gomperts said: “I think it’s extremely important because within Europe there’s so much inequality and difference in how women’s rights are being respected.“We can’t stop pointing out the lack of safe access to abortion and medical abortion pills. It’s a violation of women’s rights. We have to make every effort to make sure they get that access.”

“We’re very interested in the new developments around drones,” she said. “In a sense it’s a campaign to call attention to the reality for women in Poland. But there’s a future for it as a delivery model. We might do it in Ireland.”The ‘abortion drone’ is not thought to be illegal – though it will be illegal for any Polish woman to take the pills without approval from physicians or prosecutors, and if she does not meet the country’s conditions for abortion.Gomperts said: “There are no regulations or laws that prevent us from doing this or any that say it would be illegal.

“It’s the first time we’re doing something like this, so we don’t know what the Government’s going to do. We’re just going to see what happens.”

Though it is illegal for women in Poland to have abortions in cases that fall outside of the restrictions, such as when they feel economically unable to care for their child, or there is only a slight risk to the woman’s health, there is no punishment.

They cannot be imprisoned for their actions, though a physician who performs an abortion in violation of the law can be subjected to up to two years’ imprisonment.

…

The pills, mifepristone and misoprostol, are on the World Health Organisation’s Essential Medicines list, and can be taken up to nine weeks of pregnancy.They have the same health impact as a spontaneous miscarriage.

These pills will be delivered this weekend via the ‘abortion drone’ with the help of Cocia Basia, a Berlin-based abortion support group for Polish women, Polish women’s group Fundacij Feminoteka and informal collective “Porozumienie kobiet 8 marca” – all of which campaign for abortion to be legalised in Poland.

Women on Waves was set up by Dutch doctor Rebecca Gomperts in 1999 to bring non-surgical abortion services to women in countries with restrictive abortion laws.
