Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.At least 35 female commuters died and 10 others were injured yesterday when they leapt off a train they thought was on fire and were mown down by another speeding in the opposite direction, Reuter reports from Bombay.
Scores of screaming commuters, panicked by fears of a fire in a stationary train specifically provided for female commuters, jumped on to the adjoining tracks near the Bombay suburb of Borivli.
