Breaking: Supreme Court Protects Access to Abortion Pill

The supreme court protected access to the abortion pill mifepristone

CNN reported:

The Supreme Court on Friday protected access to a widely used abortion drug by freezing lower-court rulings that placed restrictions on its usage.

As a result, the US Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the drug mifepristone and subsequent actions that made it more easily accessible will remain in place while appeals play out – potentially for months to come.

Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito publicly dissented.

The legal proceedings will continue.

As the Associated Press previously reported, Justice Samuel Alito issued an order Wednesday delaying the ultimate decision until today. Alito, who is responsible for handling emergency appeals from Texas, gave no reason for his ruling.

Pro-life doctors and medical groups represented by the socially conservative Alliance Defending Freedom filed suit back in November challenging the federal government’s authority to issue mifepristone, one of two drugs used in medication abortions.

The legal challenge quickly reached the Supreme Court after U.S. District Judge Matthew J. Kacsmaryk, a Donald Trump appointee based in Texas, on April 7 revoked FDA approval of mifepristone. abortions.

At least one US citizen among the 400-plus killed in Sudan warring, as both sides declare ceasefire

The World Health Organization says an addition 3,551 people have been injured since the fighting started Saturday.

The State Department said Friday that one U.S. citizen is among the 400-plus people who have been killing in the armed conflict in Sudan that also has the agency ready to close the United States embassy in the northeast Africa country.

The conflict started Saturday as Sudan Armed Forces leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, who is Sudan’s military ruler, and Rapid Support Force Commander General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo vie for control of the country, according to CNN.

The RSF paramilitary group declared a ceasefire Thursday that was almost immediately broken. However, both sides reportedly declare a new one Friday for the Muslim holiday of Eid, which marks the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

In addition to the deaths, 3,551 people have been injured and thousands have fled the country, the World Health Organization reports.

At least nine children are among the dead, and the number of child casualties "will continue to rise as long as fighting continues” said James Elder, a UNICEF spokesman at a United Nations briefing Friday in Geneva.

The warring and related danger in the region has prevented humanitarian and other aid groups from helping those in need.

Russia’s air force accidentally bombs own city of Belgorod

today.

MOSCOW (AP) — Russia’s military acknowledged that a bomb accidentally dropped by one of its warplanes caused a powerful blast in a Russian city not far from Ukraine’s border, injuring two and scaring local residents.

Belgorod, a city of 340,000 located about 40 kilometers (25 miles) east of the Russia-Ukraine border, has faced regular drone attacks during Russia’s current military operation in Ukraine. Russian authorities blamed the earlier strikes on the Ukrainian military, which refrained from directly claiming responsibility for the attacks.

The explosion late Thursday was far more powerful than anything Belgorod residents had experienced before. Witnesses reported a low hissing sound followed by a blast that made nearby apartment buildings tremble and shattered their windows.
