... that women seeking abortions in Eswatini and Lesotho may travel to South Africa, where it is legal?

Source: [1] "Even though safe abortion services are not available in our country, women are made aware that those services are available in the neighboring country in South Africa whereby they're are advised to access the services in that country since abortion is legal there," Maile told CNN.
[2] “They were helping the poorest of the poor, women who are truly desperate and who cannot do what most Swazi women do who need an abortion. Most women just travel across the border to South Africa,” Alicia Simelane, a Manzini healthcare worker and midwife, told IRIN.
