People take part in an anti-abortion protest, organised by 40 Days For Life, on Hardgate Road, close to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow, February 14, 2024

A US anti-abortion group is planning a series of protests outside a hospital in Scotland despite a law banning such demonstrations.

According to its website, 40 Days For Life will hold vigils outside the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow from March 5 until April 13.

A law passed last year by the Scottish Parliament outlawed anti-abortion activists from protesting within 200 metres of abortion clinics.
