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.The government has recovered a yacht that once belonged to the nephew of the deposed dictator.
The Prime Minister Ali Larayedh and central bank head Chedli Ayari were on hand to receive the yacht of Kais Ben Ali, which had been anchored in an Italian port.
The $626,000 (£400,000) vessel was the latest item belonging to the family of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, who was overthrown in January 2011, recovered by the Tunisian government.
On Thursday last week, the government received a cheque for $28m recovered by the United Nations from a Lebanese bank account belonging to the dictator’s family.
