North Dakota's Republican Governor, Doug Burgum, has signed a law banning abortion throughout pregnancy, with slim exceptions up to six weeks' gestation, even in cases of rape or incest.

The new ban is expected to face legal challenges, and opponents contend it will have dire consequences for women and girls.
