From the Radiolab podcast: Pregnancy, and choice, in a war. With NPR’s Rough Translation.
We continue the story of a covert smuggling operation to bring abortion pills into Ukraine, shortly after the Russian invasion. In this episode, reporters Katz Laszlo and Gregory Warner go to Ukraine, landing on a fall night during a citywide blackout, to pick up the trail of the pills and find out about the doctors and patients who needed them. But as they follow the pills around the country, what they learn changes their understanding of how we talk about these pills, and how we talk about choice, in a war.
This episode is the second of two done in collaboration with NPR’s Rough Translation. You can find the first episode here: youtu.be/7r2gx1iOHtM?si=3xIgdQzqK5gN2wJJ
