The government in Bahrain has announced its approval of a draft law that permits the termination of pregnancies involving fetuses diagnosed with severe deformities or incurable intellectual disabilities, within strict medical and legal controls. The bill aims to expand the range of cases in which abortion is permitted, especially in situations where early detection indicates that the fetus suffers from deformities that threaten its life or health after birth, even if it is expected to survive postnatally. Prior to the procedure, a report from a medical committee is required, detailing the test results and medical reasons. Abortions are restricted to licensed hospitals, with review and approval from both spouses. Additionally, the draft emphasizes the importance of safeguarding women's rights and the need for precise verification of the medical condition to ensure the laws are applied within strict medical guidelines. The maximum permissible pregnancy duration for abortion remains at 120 days.
