An anti-abortion rally in central Zagreb draws crowds of several thousands, according to an AFP journalist, as activists in the staunchly Catholic country warn of an erosion of women's reproductive rights. Waving banners with slogans such as "Unborn children -- the most endangered minority in Croatia" and "Unborn lives matter, too", thousands, including many parents with children, took part in the annual "March for Life".
