BBC World Service - BBC OS, Abortion experiences in America

The fallout from the leaked Supreme Court draft continues.

Women in the US share their experience of having an abortion, after a leaked Supreme Court draft revealed they could soon lose their right to a legal abortion.

We hear a conversation between American women who have had an abortion in different states. What were their experiences like?  We also continue to answer your questions on the potential impact of the leaked Supreme Court draft ruling which could mean the end of the right to an abortion in the United States.

Ukrainian authorities hope to evacuate hundreds of people from Mariupol, which is almost fully under Russian control. The story around the evacuations is confusing, so we try to get to the bottom of how many people have actually managed to get safely away from the city and its steelworks - and how many remain.

And a year on since they made the headlines, we bring you an update on the Malian nonuplets - nine siblings from a single pregnancy.

Wade abortion rights decision later this year.  Credit: Reuters/Evelyn Hockstein)
