Due to the US Supreme Court's overturning of Roe vs Wade, a landmark 1973 ruling that guaranteed abortion rights across the country, a 10-year-old girl, a rape survivor, was denied an abortion in Ohio.

The girl's case became public three days after the apex court's ruling on 24 June, and Ohio's law, that prohibits abortions six weeks into the pregnancy, came into effect.

She is now reportedly heading to the state of Indiana due to the abortion ban in Ohio.
