Pro-abortion activists protested outside the Supreme Court in Washington, DC, on Friday following the court's decision to overturn the Roe v Wade law.

The ruling from 1973 allowed women in the US to legally choose to have an abortion. Scrapping the law means that pro-life states can criminalise the termination of pregnancies.

The footage filmed on June 24 shows women chanting slogans and holding up banners like "Keep your religion out of my vagina."
