Charlie Gard is to be moved to a hospice where his life support will be removed and he will "inevitably" die, a High Court judge has said. | Charlie Gard is to be moved to a hospice where his life support will be removed and he will "inevitably" die, a High Court judge has said. |
The terminally ill baby, who would have turned one next week, was at the centre of a legal battle that drew worldwide attention. | |
