Tens of thousands of anti-abortion protesters rallied in the Slovak capital Bratislava on Sunday against a law allowing terminations until the 12th week of pregnancy, which has been in force in the heavily Catholic country since communist times.

The “National March for Life” attracted 50,000 people, according to the Catholic Episcopal Conference of Slovakia which organised the event.

“Man did not give himself life; it is a gift given to him,” Stanislav Zvolensky, Archbishop of Bratislava, told marchers in the city centre.
