German lawmakers have voted to repeal a Nazi-era law that banned doctors from providing information about abortions.

Under the controversial 1933 legislation, a number of medical workers had been imprisoned or fined for informing potential patients about the procedure.

But a majority of MPs in the Bundestag voted to end the ban on abortion "advertising" on Friday.

The motion received support from the ruling coalition and the Left Party but was opposed by the centre-right Christian Democrats and the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD).

Justice Minister Marco Buschmann had told lawmakers that it was high time" to abolish an "absurd" and "outdated" law.
