A Polish court on Tuesday sentenced three doctors to prison sentences over the 2021 death of a pregnant woman, which sparked nationwide protests and renewed scrutiny of the country’s restrictive abortion laws.

Her death came a year after a law toughening abortion restrictions in the mainly Catholic country came into effect and reignited mass protests.
The three doctors were charged with directly endangering Izabela’s life.
