For two hours, the men surrounded Jagielska, she said, preventing him from doing his job.
“These are acts of terror against patients, doctors and hospital administrators,” Polish equality minister Katarzyna Kotula said to the TVN24 news channel.
Jagielska is not new for the demonstrators of abortion. As a doctor who practiced abortions in one of the countries with the strictest abortion in Europe, she saw her fair share of pro-life and online demonstrations.
Her hospital attracts pro-life crowds at least once or twice a week, she said. But on Wednesday, things degenerated beyond everything she had known before.
“We have had many pro-life demonstrations in front of the hospital for years, but it has never happened that these people came to the hospital,” she said.
Police said they had been called to the scene when an “group of unauthorized people entered the hospital” and “disturbed the functioning of the medical establishment and the peace of patients,” they said in a position on social networks.
