France's National Assembly approves assisted dying legislation for terminal patients

The French National Assembly has passed a new bill that permits assisted dying for adults suffering from incurable medical conditions. According to the legislation, French citizens and legal residents who are at least 18 years old may request lethal medication, provided they meet specific, rigorous criteria. Patients are generally expected to take the substance themselves, though a physician may assist if the individual's physical state prevents them from doing so.
