America looks set to force teenage girls to register for the military draft, sparking a fierce row over gender equality.
The decision was approved in private by the US Senate armed services committee and would require anyone aged 18 to 25, of either gender, to make themselves available for call-up in a potential future large-scale war.
There has not been a military draft in the US since the Vietnam War, and senior Pentagon officials are opposed to ever having one again.
