Abortion boat causes riot in Valencia
Women on Waves, the Dutch organisation which supports abortion and helps women end their pregnancy with pills, caused a riot when it arrived on its ship the Menina in the Spanish port of Valencia on Friday, reports news agency ANP.
Police had to keep pro and anti-abortionists apart and the port authorities tried to stop the Menina from mooring with a tug, says ANP.
Spain only allows abortion in cases of rape, deformity of the child and psychological or medical danger to the woman during childbirth.
